! Mr. S. o. DUNBAR,-Dear Sir; am happy to
hear that your preparation of fluid Magnesia is
coming into general use. While It is more eco
nomical than other preparation OF Fluid Magnesia,
have found it vastly more efficient, and not only
an antiseptic and anti-aeid upon the stomach, but
q very considerable tonic. It is beautiful medj-
cine for the bowel arrangement which so often af-
ics young children, and for females of debiitsted
and sour stomach, particularly those enciente, it
is invaluable Being scientific preparation and
open to the profession, it needs only acquaEt-
4 ance to become with them q favoritc mediciue.

preparation on account Of its cheapness and its
Isuperior laxative qualities. &k
