One of the most successful and
benign combinations eyer Effected
is that of the six medicinal oils of
which THOMAS ECLECTRIC OIL is COM
posed. This matchless compound not
only possesses remedial efficacy of the
highest order, but inasmuch as it con-
tains no alcohol, its influence is not
weakened by evaporation, which is
the case with very many oils of doubt
full efficacy, which have an alcohol ba-
sis. 1t is an incompatible specific for

edy for that harrassing, obstinate and
consumption-breedi malady - ca

piles, and other diseases which can be
affected by outward treatment, yield
to its operation with greater prompt
itude and certainty than to that of any
other remedy, and, when used inward

kidney troubles, piles, excoriated nip

which it eradicates. For ulcers, sores

/ Of course only comparatively small
portion Of these were pioneers, yet
there was q very liberal sprinkling OF

in these annual gatherings is far from
waning. Indeed, with the beautiful
grounds so kindly placed at their dis
posal by Hon. Marvin Kent, an cner-
seiic and efficient corps Of officers,
and a surplus in the treasury, there is
no reason why the Association shall
not have a long and useful lite befor e
