HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.— More precious than Gold.— Diarrhoea, dysentery and cholera are through the summer's heat carrying on" the young, as the winter's cold destroys the apred. In the most acute cases, where the internal medicines cannot be retained, the greatest relief will immediately result from rubbing Ilolloway's soothing Ointment over the abdomen. The friction should be frequent and brisk, to insure the penetration of a large portion of the unguent. This Ointment calms the excited peristaltic action and soothes the pain. Both vomiting and griping yield to it , where fruit or vegetables have originated the malady, it .is proper to remove all indigested matter from the bowels by a moderate dose of Holloway's Pills before using the Ointment.
