ARTIFICIAL LIMBS.

(MARKS' PATENTS.)

Thirty-two years of the most extensive experience, with the most satisfactory results of any manufacturer in the world. The confidence of the public, popularity among the crippled, and flattering commendations from all parts of the world, attest the superiority of the

RUBBER HAND AND FOOT,

which possesses the quality of yielding to every essential angle of the natural, without the use of complicated hinges, joints, and contrivances which

only annoy and render expensive their daily use. The accompanying cuts represent a young man who lost both legs by a railroad accident, one above the knee and the other two inches below. HE IS ABLE TO WALK ONEHALF MILE IN EIGHT MINUTES, without a cane or wany assistance, except his artificial limbs with rubber feet. He can perform a day's work without unusual fatigue, can go up and down stairs, in fact, can do any of the ordinaries of life without exhibiting his loss. Parties who live at a distance, or who would be inconvenienced by a journey to our place, can supply measurements on our new blanks and feel the assurance that they will receive our best attention. Thousands are thus treated in Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, Europe and our own States and Territories. Illustrated Pamphlet (160 Pages) and new System of Measurements Sent Free.

1. Its greater capacity, thereby holding a sufficient amount of fluid to FULLY DISTEND the Urethra.

2. Its Conical Point, of a shape approved by the highest European and American authorities. See "Bumstead and Taylor on Venereal Diseases," also E. Wigglesworth, M. D., of Harvard University, in Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. CIV., No. 9, fol. 203.

BROMIDIA

FORMULA.

DOSE.

Every Fluid drachm contains 15 grs. EACH, of pure
Chloral Hydrat. and purified Brom. Pot. and 1-8 gr.
EACH, of gen. imp. ext. Cannabis Ind. and Hyoscyam.

One-half to one fluid drachm in WATER or SYRUP

BROMIDIA IS THE HYPNOTIC PAR EXCELLENCE.

It produces refreshing sleep, and is exceedingly valuable in sleeplessness, nervousness, neuralgia, headache, convulsions, colics, etc., and will relieve when opiates fail. Unlike preparations of opium it does not lock up the secretions. In the restlessness and delirium of Fevers it is absolutely invaluable. BROMIDIA is endorsed and prescribed by the leading Physicians in Europe and America.

80,000 Physicians Prescribe

HYDROLEINE,

(HYDRATED OIL.)

For Consumption and Wasting Diseases, producing immediate increase in flesh and weight.

[merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small]

Hydroleine furnishes to the stomach that requisite which is certain to allay further waste of the body, and insures to the patient an increase of flesh and weight; it contains 67 per cent pure Norwegian Cod Liver Oil. In nutritive value, each bottle exceeds ten times the same bulk of Cod Liver Oil.

Hydroleine is palatable and readily tolerated by the most delicate stomachs, when the pure oil or the most carefully prepared emulsions are rejected.

For information of the good results obtained from the use of HYDROLEINE, we respectfully refer to a few of the many thousands of Physicians who have prescribed it.

"Colden's Liebig's Liquid Extract of Beef and Tonic Invigorator."

An Invaluable Aid in Medical Practice.

Differs Essentially from all other Beef Tonics.

COLDEN'S Liquid Beef Tonic is endorsed by scores of physicians, who are growing to realize

more and more its importance in repairing, in accordance with the principles of dietetics, the waste which disease entails. It consists of the extract of Beef (by Baron Liebig's process) spirit rendered non-injurious to the most delicate stomach by extraction of the Fusel Oil, soluble Citrate of Iron, Cinchona, Gentian and other bitter tonics. An official analysis of this preparation by the eminent Chemist, ARTHUR HILL HASSALL, M. D., F. R. S., and an endorsement by the late SIR ERASMUS WILSON, F. R. S., is printed on the label of each bottle.

As a blood food, and a reliable tonic in all cases of debility and weakness, Malarial Fever, Anæmia, Chlorosis, Incipient Consumption, etc., it is the best preparation ever used. It acts directly on the sentient Gastric Nerves, stimulating the follicles to secretion, and gives to weakened individuals that first prerequisite to improvement - an appetite. It strengthens the nervous system when unstrung by disease, and has been employed with remarkable success as a remedy for Drunkenness and the Opium Habit.

Its Range of Action Embraces all Cases of Debility.

In order that physicians may form some idea of the nature of its ingredients, I will upon application in person, or by letter (enclosing a card), send a sample bottle of COLDEN'S LIQUID BEEF TONIC to any physician in regular standing, in the United States. Please ask your Dispensing Druggist (if he has not already a supply) to order it. In prescribing this preparation, physicians should be particular to mention "COLDEN'S"-viz.: "Ext. carnis, fl. comp. (Colden's.)" It is put up in pint bottles, and can be had of Wholesale and Retail Druggists generally throughout the United States.

LL physicians know that skin diseases are more or less constitutional, or dependent upon some specific poison in the blood, which if eradicated by internal treatment needs something to remove its appearance from the surface. Experience has proved that the best possible aid in the accomplishment of this end is obtained by the use of Sulphur in soap. GLENN'S SULPHUR SOAP is the best combination of its kind, and the one now generally used. It is for sale by all Druggists, at 25 cents a cake, or 3 cakes for 60
