The results were most favourable, proving the value of ‘Dr. Chase’s Ointment’ as a curative agent in the diseases named. The manu‘acturers of the remedy are well-known as ex- perienced pharmacists, careful and reliable, in addition to which we have made full examination, and find the article to be all that is claimed for it. “It ia not the practice of the medical profession to indorse indis- criminately the use of proprietary medicines, but while we condemn the bad and worthless, we are still more ready to indorse and recommend the remedy deserving the recognition. ‘Neither the physician nor the sponsible Journal of Health now fuses to acknowledge the claims of such proprietary remedies ag ‘ Dr. Chase’s Ointment,’ which prove their virtues by curing where other agen- cies have failed. “We know that ‘Dr. Chase’s Oint- ment’ meets all requisitions of the highest standard of worth, that it will be held in high esteem wherever it fs used, and consequently we indorse it to every reader.” Cc.
