stating that it ranks foremost among the

an excellent nervous tonic, it exerts a

and through it invigorates the body.

peculiarly attractive in a horse. His in-

strength, his obedient temper, and his
indispensable use, all endear him to us.
We have to look at his proportions, and
take in the aspiration of his energy and

w" -i-ELER'S ELIXIR OF PHOSPHATES
and. Calisaya—After having used your Com-
pound Elixir of Phosphates and Calisaya for over
two years in my daily practice, I must give it my
unqualified approbatien. During a practice of
over twenty years, I hate used many scientifically
prepared compounds, made to fulfil the same the-
apeutigal indications as your elixir, but none of
them proved with me so valuable as yotirs. To the
medical profession, and to the public, I vmuld
especially recommend Was the best remedy with
which I am eequainted for the successful treat-
ment of the large and constantly increasing class
of cases of over-worked and nerve -exhausted wo-

There are but few preparations of medicine
which have.withstood the impartial juslgment of
the people for any great length of time. One of
these is TikomAs' Ennormo OIL, purely prepar-
ation of six of some of the best oils that are known,
, each onepossessing virtues of its own. Scientific
I 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 niece, forming
a Compound -Which could not by any possibility be
made from any other combination or proportions
of the same ingredients, or any other ingredients,
and entirely different from anything ever before
made, on.e which produces the most astonishing re-

than any medicine ever before discovered. It con 1T Act ot 18694
