Wheeler's Compound Elixir of Phosphate and Calisaya. A Nerve Food and Nutritive Tonic, for the Treatment of Consumption, Bronchitis, Scrofula and all forms of Nervous Debility. The Lactophosphates prepared from the formula of Prof. Dusart, of the University of Paris, combines with a su perior Permatin Sherry Wine and Aromatics in an agreeable cordial easily assimilable and acceptable to the most irritable stomachs.

The Superiority of the Elixir consists in uniting with the Phosphates the special properties of the cinchona and prunus, of subduing fever and allaying irritation of the mucous membrane of the alimentary canal, which adapts it to the successful treatment of stomach derangements and all diseases of faulty nutrition, the outcome of indigestion, malassimilation of food, and failure of supply of these essential elements of nerve force and tissue repair.

Union of External and Internal Support-The abdomen is held up by the broad morocco leather belt with concave front and elastic straps to buckle around the hips. The Uterine Support is a cup and stem made of highly polished hard rubber, very light and durable, shaped to fit the neck of the womb, with openings for the secretions to pass out, as shown by the cuts.

Belf Adjusting-The Physician after applying it need have no fear that he will be called in haste to remove or readjust it (as is often the case with rings and various pessaries held in position by pressure against the vaginal wall), as the patient can remove it at will, and replace it without assistance.

DIOVIBURNIA

Jno. B. Johnson, M.D., Professor of the Principles nd Practice of Medicine, St. Louis Medical College.

ST. LOUIS, June 20, 1888.

I very cheerfully give my testimony to the irtues of a combination of vegetable reme. ies prepared by a well-known and able pharaceutist of this city and known as "Dioviurnia," the component parts of which are well known to any and all physician who deire to know the same, and therefore have no elation to proprietary or quack remedies. I ave employed this medicine in cases of dysenorhea, suppression of the catamania, and n excessive leucorrhea, and have been much leased with its use. I do not think its claims as set forth in the circular accompanying it) be at all excessive. I recommend its trail o all who are willing to trust to its efficacy, elieving it will give satisfaction.

ST. LOUIS, June 18, 1888.

I have given the "Dioviburnia” a fair trial and found it useful as an uterine tonic and antispasmodic, relieving the pains of dysmenorrhea and regulator of the uterine functions. I feel authorized to give this recommendation of Dioviburnia as it is neither a patented or a secret medicine, the formula of which hav ing been communicated freely to the medical profession.

L Ch. Boisliniere MD.

H. Tuholske, M.D., Professor Clinical Surgery and Surgical Pathology, Missouri Medical College. ST. LOUIS, June 23, 1888.

I have used "Dioviburnia" quite a number self of its merits. It is of unquestionable of times; sufficiently frequently to satisfy my. benefit in painful dysmenorrhea, it possesses antispasmodic properties which seem to espe cially be exerted on the uterus.
