PURE FRESH COD LIVER OlL
rim IS new and valuable medicine, now used by the
medical profession with such astonishing efficacy in
the cure of
Pulmonary Consumption, Scrofula, Chro
nic Rheumatism, Govt, General De
bility, Complaints of the. Kid
neys, fyc., eSpc.,
is prepared from the liver of the Cod Fish for rnediral
use, expressly fur our sales.
(Extract from the London .Medical Jo-urnal./
"C J. B Williams, M. D., F. R. S., Professor of Medi
cine in University College, I.ondon, Consulting Physi
ciu to the Hospital for consumption, Ace., says : I have
prescribed the Oil in above four hundred cases of tubercu
lous disease of the l.ungs, in different stages, which have
been under my care the last two years and a half. In
the large number of cases, 206 out of 234, its use was fol
lowed by marked and unequivocal improvement, varying
in degree in different cases, from a temporary retarda
tion of the progress of the disease and a mitigation of dis
tressing symptoms, up to a more or less complete restor
ation to apparent health.
" The effect of the Cod I.iver Oil in most of these cases
was very remarkable. Even in a few days the cough
was mitigated, the expectoration diminished in quantity
and opacity, the night sweats ceased, the pulse became
slower, and of better volume, and the appetite, flesh ami
strength were gradually improved.
"In conclusion, I repeat that the pure fresh oil from
the I.iver of the Cod is more beneficial in the treatment
of Pulmonary Consumption than any agent, medicinal,
dietetic or regimenal, that has yet been employed."
As ve have made arrangement* to procure the Cod Liver
Oil, freek from head quarters, it can noir, bt had chemically
