One of these is TiromAs' Era:cynic OIL, purely a prepar- ation of six of some of thebest oils that are known, each one possessing tiles of its own. Scientific physicians know that medicines may be formed of severAl ingredients in certain fixed proportions of greater power, and producing effects which could never'result from the use of any one of them, or in different cambinations. Thus in the preparation of this oil a chemical change takes place, forming a compound which could not by any possibility be made from any other combination or proportions of the same ingredients, or any otheriugredients, and entirely different front anything ever before made, one wnich produces the mostastonishing re- sults, and having a wider range of a.pplieation than any medicine ever before diseovered.
