must with an enlightened public render it assuredly
highly popular, and a desideratum long sought for
in the medical world. It needs no confinement or
change of diet. In its approved lorm, that of paste,
it is entirely tasteless, and causes no unpleasant
sensation to the patient. It has acquitted the
utmost fame in almost every part of Europe; it
has been examined, approved of,and sanctioned by
the faculty of medicine, and recommended by the
most eminent of the profession. Prepared by J.

and industrial worlds, as to please and instruct eve
ry one. 1 f the mechanic or artizan wishes to know
the best machine in use or how to make any sub
stance employed in his business—if the housewife
wishes to get a recipe for making a good coior, &c.
—if the inventor wishes lo know what is going on
in the way of improvements—if the manufacturer
wishes to keep posted with the times, and to employ
the best facilities in hisbusiness—if the man of lei
