CURES FOB THE TJNCURED ! HOLLO WAY'S OINTMENT . —An extraordinary COBB Of 8 CHOPOLA or KtN 0 * 9 EVlt . Extract of a Letter from Mr . J . H . Alliday , 809 ,. High-street , Cheltenham , dated the 22 nd of January , 1850 . " ^ l ™ —MTeldes ^ son , when about three years of age , was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling in the neck , which , aftera short time , broke out into an Ulcer , An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad case of Scrofula , and prescribed , for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for four years went on gradually increasing- m virulence , when , besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the eye , besides seven others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyes , which wag expected to break . During the whole of the time my suffering boy had received the constant advice of the most celebrated medical Gentlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital , where one of the Surgeons said that he would amputate the left arm . but that the blood was so impure that if that to sub

. limb were taken off , it would be then even impossible to subdue the disease . In this desperate state I determined to give your Pills and Ointment a trial , and , after two months perseveranee in their use , the tumour gradually began to disappear , and the discharge from all the ulcers perceptibly decreased , and at the expiration of eight months they were perfectly healed , and the boy thoroughly restored to the blessings of health , to the astonishment of a large circle of acquaintances , who could testify to the truth of this miraculous case . Three years have now elapsed without any recurrence to the malady , and the boy is now as healthy as heart can wish . Under these circumstances I consider that 1 should be truly ungrateful were I not to make you acquainted with this wonderful cure , effected by your medicines , after every other means had failed .

HOMOEOPATH Y . —All the Homoeopathic Medicines , in Globules , Tinctutes , and Trituration , are prepared with the greatest care and accuracy by JOHN MAWSON , Homoeopathic Chemist , 4 , Hood-street , Newcastleon-Tyne ; and 60 , Fawcett-street , Bunderland ; from whom they may be obtained , in single tubes , neat pocket cases , and boxes , suitable for families and the profession . " Laurie's" and all other works on Homceopathy , together with cases and tubes , sent post-free to all parts of the kingdom . Dispensaries and the piofession supplied on liberal terms . Just published , and may be had free of charge , a small pamphlet on Homoeopathy , by J . Silk Bucking-ham , Esq . MAW 8 ON'S HOMOEOPATHIC COCOA . —The Cocoa-nut , or nib , contains a very large proportion of nutritive matter , consisting of a farinaceous substance , and of a rich and pleasant oil . This oil is esteemed on account of its being leas liable than any other oil to rancidity . Homoeopathic physicians are united in their recommendation of cocoa as a beverage ; and the testimonials from other sources are numerous and of the highest character . It was so highly esteemed by Linnteus , the chief of Naturalists , that he named it Theobroma— " Food for the Gods . " Dr . Pareiia says , " It is a very nourishing beverage , devoid of the ill properties possessed by both tea and coffee . " Dr . Epps , the popular lecturer on Physiology , says : — " Mothers , while suckling , should never take Coffee ; they should suckle on Cocoa . I have the testimony of mothers who have so suckled , and they state that they found , with Cocoa without Beer , they produced quite sufficient milk , and the children suckled with such diet were in better health than those suckled on a previous occasion , when Beer , and Coffee , and Tea formed the liquid part of their diet . " The same author adds : — " Cocoa is the best of all flavoured drinks . It is highly nutritious . " Dr . Hooper says : —•* This food is admirably calculated for the sick , and to those who are in health it is a luxury . " Many persons have been turned against the use of Cocoa and Chocolate from having tried the many , and very generally inferior article vended at the grocers' » hops under that name . The preparation here offered by JOHN MAWSON contains all the nutritious properties of the nut without any objectionable admixture . It is , therefore , recommended as an agreeable and wholesome Substitute for Coffee , to which it is certainly much superior , as it is also to the Cocoas sold as " Soluble Cocoa , " " Flake Cocoa , "&c . It is light , easy of digestion , agreeable , nutritious , and requires little tune or trouble in preparing for use . Testimonial . — " Having used the Homoeopathic Cocoa prepared by Mr . Mawson , I have no hesitation in givingit my fullest recommendation . "—Thomas Hayle , M . D .
