HOLLOWAY ' S OINTMENT AND PILLS . —Never at Fault . —In all irritations of the skin , sores , ulcers , burns , and scrofulous enlargements of the glands , Holloway ' s Ointment presents a ready and an easy means of cure , which never disappoint the most favourable expectations . It manifests a peculiar power in restraining inflammations ,
removing stagnation , cooling the blood , and checking all acrimonious or unhealthy discharges . While thus acting locally , the pills are no less remarkable for their power in improving the general condition aud habit of the body , which render the cure complete and permanent .
