To Horse Owners.

DIR. Sweets Infallible Liniment for Horses
is unrivalled by any, and in all cases OF Lame
ness. arising from Sprains. Bruises or Wrench
ing, its effect is magical and certain. Harness
or Saddle Calls, Scratches, Mangee. &C., il
will also cure speedily. SPAWN and Ringbone
may be easily prevented and cured in the eir
incipient stages, but confirmed cases are be-
yond the possibility of radical cure. No
case of the kind. however, is so desperate or
hopeless but ii may be alleviated by this Lin
ment, and its faithful application will always
remove the Lameness, aud enable the horse
to travel with comparative ease.
Every Horse Owner
Should have this remedy at hand, for its time
ly use at the first appearance of Lamen ess
will efcctually prevent those formidable dis
eases, TO which all horses are liable, and
which render so many otherwise valuable hor-
ses nearly worthless.
