As a tonic, it will be found invaluable to all
persons recovering from debility, whether pro-
duced by fever, or otherwise; for while it inn
parts TO the system all the glow and vigor that
can be produced by wine or brandy, it is en-
tirely free from the reactiopary effects that fol-
low the use Of spirits of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females
who suffer from difficult menstrnation, giving
almost immediate relief to the spasms that so
frequently accompany that period.
1t givs immediate relief to Nausea, caused
by riding in railroad car, or by sea-sickncss
or other causes.
1t is also valuable as an external application
for Gout, Rheumatism, NeIfalgaia, etc.
