DR . DE JONGH'S LIGHT-BROWN COD LIVER OIL , entirely free from nSuseous flavour and after-taste , is porscribed with the greatest success by the Faculty as the safest , speediest , and most effectual remedy for CONSUAIPTION , BRONCHITIS . ASTHMA , GOUT . RHEUMATISM . SCIATICA , DIAUETES , DISEASES OF THE SKIN , NEURALGIA , RICKETS , INFANTILE WASTING , GENERAL DEBILITY , AND ALL SCROFULOUS AFFECTIONS . Numerous spontaneous testimonials from physicians of European reputation attest that , in innumerable coses where other kinds of Cod Liver Oil had been long and copiously administered with little or no benefit . Dr . i > b Jonoh ' s Oil has produced immediate relief , arrested disease , and restored health . OPINION OP DR . XETHEBY . Medica . 1 Officer erf Health to the City of London , dbc < Src . ' I have frequently hod occauiou to analyze tho Cod Liver Oil which is sold at your establishment —I mean that variety which is prepared for medicinal use in the LofTbdcn lsl « 8 , Norway , and sent into commerce with tho sanction of Dr . de Jongh , of tho Hague . In all canes I have found it possessing the no set of properties , among which tho proBonco of cholaic compounds and of iodine in a state of organic combination are tlio most remarkable ; in fact , tho Oil corresponds in all itn characters with that named HuiU brune , ' and described as the best variety in tho masterly treatise of Dr . do Jongh . It is , I believe , universally acknowledged that this description of Oil liati great therapeutical power ; and , from my investigations , I nave no doubt of its being a pure and unadulterated article .
