Medical. W. V. WRIGHT & CO.'S PURE COAL-TAR SOAP REOTSTERET) AS SAPO CARBONIS DETERGENS. rfIHIS Soap is compounded from our " Liquor JL Carbonis Detergens," which, according to the testimony of the 'ending Medical Journal.-*, is unrivalled for its Detergent and Antiseptic qualities besides being an almost infallible specific for Indolent Ulcers, Wounds, Sores, and Affections of the Skin generally. All the active principles of Coal Tar, including that powerful disinfectant, Carbolic Acid, are contained in the " Liquor," and are developed in tho Soap in a milder form. W. V. Wright & Co.'s Pure Coal-Tar Soap is a material security against infectious diseases of every sort, and moderates the eflluvia of house drains. This effect is produced by the water being thrown into them in which the soap has been used for washing. W. V. Wright & Co.'s Pure Coal-Tar Soap improves tho general condition of the skin, which becomes soft and silky, and after washing, there is a, conscious sensation of a most agreeable and refreshing character. Tlie face assumes a clear .uid healthy appearance ; there is no liability to chilblains or chapped hands, and offensive emanal ions from the person (if there be any) are quickly removed. W. V. Weight & Co.'s Pube Coal-Tar Soap prevents tho hair from turning prematurely grey. All ordinary soaps destroy the color of the hair more or less : but the Sapo Carbonis Detergens docs not produce this effect, partly because it contains a very small proportion of alkali, and partly because of the peculiar nature of tho alkali, and the special form and combination in which it exists. W. V. Wrigiit & Co'a P^re Coal-Tar Soap, from the small quantity of alkali which it contains, as well as from the compression to which it \9 subjected, does not soften or waste in water like other soaps, and will be, therefore, found most economical in use. W. V. Wright & Co's Pure Coal-Tar Soap is a specific against the bite of reptiles, the sting of insects, &c, &c, and is an invaluable article in hot climates. W. V. Wright & Co.'s Pure Coal-Tar Soap is most highly spoken of by the Press. Tho following is from the " Lancet," Dec. 22nd 1866. " In our hands it has been a most effective agent, in tho case of various skin diseases, especially of the chronic eczematous class ; and one case of psoriasis, which had resisted all other kinds of treatment, speedily got well under the application uf the liquor carbonis detergens. We esteem it a very va'uable addition to our list of skin remedies, and worthy of a very extended trial by the profession. In the above classes of disease, and in various others, such as foetid ulcers, &c, the preparation is put into the form of soap. Messrs W. V, Wright & Co, London, are the manufacturers."

" Half a Century's Experience, which has committed so many spurious medicines to oblivion ] has served only to confirm the reputation of Cockle's Antibilious Pills, and to extend their use in every succeeding year. A sound good ruedi- ] cine frequently prescribed by physicians who have borne witness to its invaluable properties." — I Morning Herald. THE GREAT ENGLISH REMEDY FOR GOUT AND RHEUMATISM. BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS. rnHIS preparation is one of the benefits which JL the science of modern chemistry has conferred upon mankind; tor during the first twenty years of the present century to speak of a cure for tho Gout was considered a romanco ; but now the efficacy and safety of this medicine is po fully demonstrated, by unsolicited testimonials from persons in every rank of life, that public opinion proclaims this as one of the most important discoveries of the present ago.
