It is not at all unusual to hear people speak slightingly of , patent ' medicines, but the enormous demand foe them throughout the whole of the civilised world is in itself proof that they are regarded generally as one of the necessities of life. The majority of housewives would consider themselves as wanting in their duty if they did not have at hand those remelies which experience has taught them to use in cases of emergency, and nobody will venture to question the wisdom of this. Among the remedies which no household should be without is Evans's Witches' Oil, an invaluable cure for rheumatic complaints of every description, which has proved itself to be unequalled both as an embrocation and an internal medicine. In the case of sprains , strains, bruises and all kinds of surface wounds, to which, as mothers will know, children are particularly liable, the application of the oil to the parts affected will ensure a speedy and complete cure, while attacks of mumps, quinsy, sore throat and 6very sort of ache can be successfully treated through its agency. The preparation is a certain remedy for inflamation of the bowels, lungs or any part of the body, and as these are complaints that require immediate attention, a bottle of Witches' Oil in the house will prevent serious if not fatal consequences. Sold at all chemists and storekeepers throughout the Colony at 2s 6d and 4s 6d per bottle and Messrs Kempthorne Prosser and Co , ageuts. — *"* 1
