TETTEsk OINTMENT
Is most excellent preparation for the of that
class of maladies usually termed
DISEASES OF THE SKIN,

DloLA'oE1o VI LIE SAlN,
and which are popularity known Chronic erup-
uons, letter Pimplcs Blisters. Scahs Scald- Head,
Milk-crust Ring-worm, etc, etc.
1t will also kill Itch and other local vermin which
prey upon the skin. 1t sOftenS and detaches the
eXcrementtious matters deposited upon the skin;
heals the cracks blistcrs and pimples and renders
the cutneOus surface smooth and phable. 1t has
been used by DIR. Gilbert with most satisfactory
suits for many years. 1t offered for sale, in this
style from the firm conviction that it must
riy meet with the hearty appreciation of those who
make of it.
Full directions for the method of using these
edies, plain and accurate description of number
of the different varieties of skin diseases and many
valuable suggestions in regard to their cure will be
found printed ON circular accompanying each pack
age. These suggestions are the fruit of most ample
experience acquired by Dr. Samuel Gilbert during
his extraordinary professional in the treat
ment of this class of diseases in the cities of Mem
phis, New Orleans and New York and will it is
is expected, enable most unpTotessiOnal persons to
treat their eases with much greater success
than that which usually falls to the lot of ordinary
physicians.
