Dear Sim,
As you think it will be ufrful, you are st
liberty to pnoiilli my testimony in favor si
H.nnUton's Essence and Extra'A of Mustard.
I have been about tour years m'.ich aflicted
■with the rbeuinatifm in my Ibauklers, and
fonieunles to violently affected as to prevc t
me IVoni moving my arms, and I was never
' ;e from severe pain in some part or other.
—I have been at much expence, and tried a
good deal ct medicine to no purpose ; I
purchaft-d a hotde of drops, advert'iled under
a titk* similar to your mediciife, but expe
rienced the most extruttating smart from its
application, which obligvd me to dcfift.
At length J was advised by Dr. to try
Hamilton's Eflence and Extract of Mustard,
front which f found immediate relief, and
by »he use of three boxes and two bottles, I
have recovered a ilate of perft ft health and
ftiength—l shall take a good iupply to sea,
and never be without fa valuable a 1 medicine
in my po.Liiicn.

Sir,
I fend you the particulars of my cure by
Hamilton's EfTence and Extraft of Milliard,
that you may make it known for the benefit
of others. About two months ago I {train
ed my right knee so violently by a fall that
I was unable to walk without a crutch. I
tried British oil, Opodeldoc and other medi
cines, but grew confiderablv ivorle, and the
part became inflamed and swelled to a con
fk'erable degree, when I was recommended
to the Eflence of Mustard, and by two
bottles I was able to walk in less than a
week, and am now as hearty as ever-

GRAND RESTORATIVE,'
WHICH the inventor csnfidcHtly recommends
a, an invaluable medicine for the speedy relief, and
pi imasent cure of various complaints which result

And is proved jky, long experience to be
unparalleled
In the tare of tiervousdiiorders, cor.fumptlons,
lownefs of spirits, lols of appetite, impurity of
the blood, nyfterkal affeflionS, inward wcak
nefles, violent cv:«ips in the stomach and back)
indigestion, melancholy, gout in the Somach,
pains i« the lin«b», relaxations, involuntary
emiflions, I'ciniiial weakseffus, obstinate gleets,
fluor albus, (or whites) impotency, barrenness,
&c. &l .
This nr.edi it.eis perfeiftly different rn its qua
lities and operation from those hot and irritat
'ing drugs so frequently prcpofed for similar
purposes, and which only recommend them
telves by the dangerous rapidity of lluir effeils,
and whieh ailing as a temporsry but violent
stimulus on the nervous fylkro, infallibly pro
duce greater evils than those they arc intended
to remove.
The principal operation of this remedy is in
the fiomach, restoring the dietllive powers, and
fending from that organ lie* health and vigor
into every part of the system ; it enriches and
purifies the blood without enfliming it, braces
without stimulating too violently the nervous
system | firengthens the feeretory veflTels and
general habit; brings back the mufcu'ar fibres
to their Ratural and healthy tore, and restores
that nutrition which immoderate evacuations
have destroyed, and whose loss had thrown the
whole frame into lanpaor and debility.
The restorative is abfo'utely above all recom
mendation in lemoving thsfe weakneflVs and
infirmities with which many femal s are intliiS
ed, the confcquences of <-!ifliailt and painful la
bors, or of isjudicioss treatment therein.
The molt obstinate seminal gleets, and tie
mofl diftrcfling cases of fluor albus in females,
fall particularly utv!er the province of this refto
ntive, fpecdily yield to its benign operation,
and are radically cured, by correfling and pu
•rifying the acrimonious humours, restoring a
proper degree of tension to the relaxed fibres,
strengthening the weakened organs.
In cases of extremity where the long preva
lence and obftinuy of disease has brought on a
genera! impoverishment of tha fyflem, excefiive
debility of the whole frame, and a waiting
the fleiii, which no nourilhment orcordial c«uld
