| Mr.. s. o. DUNBAR,-Dear Sir; am happy to
i hear that your preparation of fluid Magnesia Is
coming into general use While it is more eco
nomcal than other preparation of Fluid Magnesia,
have found it vastly more Efficient and not only
an antisepIic and anti-acid upon the stomach but
a very considerable tonic. 1t is beautiful med
cine for the bowel arrangement which so often al
icts young children, and for females of debitated
and sour stomach particularly those enciente, it
. Is Invaluable. Being scientific preparation and
epen to the profession, it needs only scq1aiEt-
ance to become with them favoritc mediciue.
