"ROON,"
IMPERIAL GERMAN MAIL LINE. Once upon a time students of medicine held, NORDDEUTSCHER HAMBURO-AMERIKA the notion that there wern as many different LLOYD,
Linim diseases as the body has organs and parts ; font la every one of these ailments requiring a different treatment. So stupid a mistake could lead only to miserable failures. For the fact is, the body is a single machina; and what concerns one part of it concerns, more or less closely, all the rest. Thus we see how it happens that one remedy, er mode of treat ment, may relieve and cum a variety of complaints, or what may appear like variety, but are really various forms or out comings of the same cauic. Take, for example, Anemia, Scrofula, Poverty of Blood, General Debility, Influenza, Throat and Lung Diseases, etc.-a formidable array indeed they look to be; yet
quickly abates the worst of such cases, and absolutely cures many which have been abandoned as hopeless. The reasons are: its power over the digestive and assimilating process, its action in expelling impurities from the blood. and its consequent ability to vitalize and rebuild the whole structure. It is palatable as honey and contains the nutritive and curative properties of Pure Cod Liver Oil, combined with the Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry. It was not dreamed out, or discovered by accident; it was, studied out, on the solid principles of applied medical science. It is precisely what it is said to be, and kas won the confidence of the public on that basis. You may resort to it with a faith and hope that arise from the history of what it has done for others. Dr. Thos. Hunt Stucky saya: "The continued use of it in my practice, convinces me that it is the most palatable, least nauseat- ing, and best preparation now on the market. Every dose effective. "You cannot be dis appointed in it." Sold by chemists here and throughout the world and A. S. Watson & Co, Limited.
