By Leras, M.D., Docteur des Sciences.— Orimault and Co., Chemists, Paris.—According to the opinion of the members of the Paris Academy of Medicine, this article is superior to all the ferruginous preparations known. It agrees best with the stomach, never causes costiveness ; it contains the elements of the blood and the osseous frame, and succeeds where other preparations fail, such as Vallet’s Pills, iron reduced by hydrogen, lactate of iron, and ferruginous mineral water. One tablespoonful of the Solution or Syrup contains three grains of salt of iron. They are both colourless. CHILDREN’S DISEASES. lODIZED SYRUP OF HORSE-RADISH. Prepared by Grimault and Co., Paris.— This Syrup contains iodine, combined with the juice of water-cress, horse-radish, and scurvy-grass, in which iodine and sulphur exist naturally, and, for this reason, it is an excellent substitute for Cod Liver Oil, which is generally supposed to owe its efficacy to the presence of iodine. The lodized Syrup of Horse-radish invariably produces most satisfactory results administered to children suffering from lymphatism, rachitism, congestion of the glands of the neck, or the various eruptions on the face so frequent during infancy. It is also the best remedy for the first stage of consumption. Being at once tonic and depurative, it excites the appetite, promotes digestion, and restores to the tissues their natural firmness and vigour.
