very considerable tonic. 1t is beautiful medicine
for the bowel arrangement which so often aflicts
young children, and for females of deblitated and
sour stomachs, particularly those enciente, it II
invaluahle. Being a scientific preparation snt
open to the profession, 1t needs only acquaint
ance to become with them favorite medicine.
