Medical. DYSENTERY, CHOLERA, FEVER, AGUE, COUGHS, COLDS, &c. . DR. J. COLLIS BROWNE'S (Ex Army Medical Stafi) CHLORODYNE Is the Original and only Genuine. Caution.— Vice-Chancellor Sir W.P. Wood stated that Dr Collis Bkowne was undoubtedly the inventor of « CHLORODYNE j" that the story of the defendant, Freeman' being the inventor, was deliberately untrue, which he regretted had been sworn to. Eminent Hospital Physicians of London stated that Dr J. Collis Bbowhe was. the discoverer of Chlorodyne; that they prescribed it largely, and mean no other than Dr Browne's. — See Times, of July 12, 1864. The Public, therefore, are cautioned against using any other than Dk, J. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne. REMEDIAL USES AND ACTION.

[Extracts from Medical Opinions.] The Right Hob Earl Russel communicated to the College of Physicians, and J. T. Davenport, that he had received information to the effect that tho only remedy of any service in Cholera was • Chlorodyne. > --See lancet, December 31, 1864. From A. Montgomery, Esq., late Inspector of Hospitals, Bombay : — " Chlorodyne is a most valuable remedy in Neuralgia, Asthma, and Dysentery. To it I fairly owe my restoration to health, after eighteen months' severe suffering, and when all other remedies had failed." Dr. Lowe, Medical Missionary in India, reports (December, 1865) :— " That in nearly every case of Cholera in which Dr. J. Collis Bbowuk's Chlorodyne was administered, the patient recovered." Extract from the Medical Times, January 12, 1866 :— -" Chlorodyne is prescribed by scores of orthodox medical practitioners. Of course it would not thus be singularly popular, did it not ' supply a want and fill a place.' " Extract from the General Board of Health, London, as to its efficacy in Cholera : — " So strongly convinced are. we of the immense value of this remedy, that we cannot too forcibly urge the necessity of adopting it in all cases. 1 ' Beware of spurious and dangerous compounds sold as " Chlobodyhe," from which frequent fatal results have followed. See leadiDg article, Pharmaceutical Journal, Ist August, 1869, which states that Dr. J Collis Browne was the Inventor of Chlorodyni3 ; that it is always right to use his preparation when Chlorodyne is ordered.
