Medical. ! W. V. WRIGHT & CO.'S PURE COAL-TAR SOAP BEGISTEEED A 8 SAPO CARBONIS DETERGENS. fXIHIS Soap is compounded from our " Liquor X Carbonis Detergens," which, according to the testimony, of tho leading Medical Journals, 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 the Soap in a milder form. W. V. Wright & Co.'s Pure Coal-Tar Soap is a material security against infectious .disenses of every sort, and moderates the effluvia 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 the general condition of the skin, which becomes soft and silky, and after washing, there j is a conscious sensation of a most agreeable and refreshing character. The face assumes a clear ; and healthy appearance ; there is no liability to chilblains or chapped hands, and offV nsive emanations from the person (if there be any) are quickly removed. W. V. Wright & Co.'s Pure Coal-Tar Soap prevents tho huir from turning prematurely grey. All ordinary soaps destroy the color of the hair more or less ; but the Sapo Carbonis Detergens does not produce this effect, partly because it contains a very small proportion of alkali, and partly because of the peculiar nature of the alkali, and the special form and combination in which it exifts. W. V. Wright & Co's PrRE Coal-Tar Soap, from the small quantity of alkali which it contains, as well as from the compression to which it is subjected, does not soften or waste in water like other soaps, and will be, therefore, found most economical in use. W. V. Wright & CoB Pure Coal-Tab 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. The following is from the " Lancet," Dec. 22nd 1866. " In our hands it has been a most effective agent in the 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 of the liquor carbonis detergens. We esteem it a very valuable 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, &0., the preparation is put into the form of soap. Messrs W. V. Wright & Co, London, are the manufacturers." See also " Medical Times and Gazette," January 19th, 1867 : " British Medical Journal," January 26th, 1867." Sold in tablets at 6d and Is each, by all Chemists. And wholesale by the sole proprietors, W. V. WRIGHT & CO, Manufacturing Chemists, Wholesale and Export Druggists, Southwark street, London, S.E., removed from No. 11, Old Fish street, E.C., established 1667. Messrs W. V. Wright and Company will be happy to forward to the trade, free of all charge, a Monthly Price Current of Drugs, Chemicals, Pharmaceutical and Photographic Chemicals, of their especial manufacture, of guaranteed purity.

THE last Bixty- seven years have seen many wonderful changes — social, political, and indeed, all but universal. The medical world itself, t^ j has had its revolutions. New drugs and new compounds have been introduced, some of which have experienced but an ephemeral exI istewce, whilst others have been retained as choice | and valuable medicines. But through all these eventful changes COCKLE'S PILLS, I the compound of a qualified practitioner, have continued to rise in public estimation, increasing in sale to the present hour, " An Old Favorite. — It is with unfeigned satisfaction that we lenrn that Cockle's Antibilious Pills have reached their fiftieth year, with a sale equal to their reputation. They are the best medicine of their time, and we more than doubt j if the future will bring us anything as good." — I John Bull. " Half a Century's Experience, which has committed so many spurious medicines to oblivion hos served only to confirm the reputation of Cockle's Antibilious Pills, and to extend their use in every succeeding year. A sound good medi- | cino frequently prescribed by physicians who have borne witr.ess to its invaluable properties." — I Morning Herald. I THE GRKAT ENGLISH REMEDY FOR GOUT AND RHEUMATISM. BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS. Ti^HiS preparation is one of the benefits which JL tho science of modern chemistry has conferred upon mankind ; lor during the first twenty years of the present century to speak of a cure for the Gout was considered a romance ; but now the efficacy and safety of this medicine is so fully I demonstrated, by unsolicited testimonials from ! persons in every rank of life, that public opinion , proclaims this as one of the most important discoveries of tho present ago.
