DR. DE JONGH'S LIGHT BROWN COD LIVER OIL. Prepared for medicinal use in the Loffoden Isles, Norway, and put to the test of chemical analysis. The most effectual remedy for Consumption, Asthma, Gout, Chronic Rheumatism, and all Scrofulous Diseases.
Approved of and recommended by Berzelius, Liebig, Woehler, Jonathan Pereira, Fouquier, and numerous other eminent medical men and scientific chemists in Europe. Specially rewarded with medals by the Governments of Belgium and the Netherlands. Has almost entirely superseded all other kinds on the Continent, in consequence of its proved superior power and efficacy—effecting a cure much more rapidly. Contains iodine, phosphate of chalk, volatile acid, and the elements of the bile—in short, all its most active and essential principles—in larger quantities than the pale oils made in England and Newfoundland, deprived mainly of these by their mode of preparation. A pamphlet by Dr. de Jongh, with detailed remarks upon its superiority, directions for use, cases in which it has been prescribed with the greatest success, and testimonials, forwarded gratis on application.
The subjoined testimonial of BARON LIEBIG, Professor of Chemistry at the University of Giessen, is selected from innumerable others from medical and scientific men of the highest distinction:
"Sir,—I have the honour of addressing you my warmest thanks for your attention in forwarding me your work on the chemical composition and properties, as well as on the medicinal effects, of various kinds of Cod Liver Oil.
"You have rendered an essential service to science by your researches, and your efforts to provide sufferers with this Medicine in its purest and most genuine state, must ensure you the gratitude of every one who stands in need of its use.
"I have the honor of remaining, with expressions of the highest regard and esteem,
"Yours sincerely,
"DR. JUSTUS LIEBIG."
