Hollowat's Ointment and Pills. — Diseases of Advanced Years. — When man has passed to the borders of old age, the digestion becomes impaired, the nervous system grows feeble, and the pbysicle power shows increased weakness. Hence arises congestion of the liver, lungs, or head, followed by dropsy, asthma, or apoplexy, which too frequently afflict the aged. The liver usually first becomes torpid, but its activity may speedily be revived by rubbing Holloway's Ointment thoroughly over the pit of the stomach, and right side, at least twice a day, and taking the Pills at the same time. This treatment also cures all other congested organs, by varying the parts rubbed according to the situations of the congestion.
