[For the views and opinions expressed under this beading Correspondents alone are responsible, j IS DISSENT A SIN ? TO THE EDITOK OF THE JOURNAL. SIR,-I have no doubt that some of your readers will agree with me that there was (1) an ancient Britieh Church in existence in this island (to say the least) during the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th centuries, which if it ever owed any- thing to the Boman Church, bad clean forgotten it. (2.) When Gregory 1st of Roma sent Augustine to reconvert pagan England its re- conversion was most certainly not due to Augus- tine, his companions or their succeaors, but to the old saintly British Bishops who came dirnctly from lona, &c., but indirectly from Wales. Nothing can be further from the truth than t: at Rome did much in recovering the Pagan Saxons, Angles, &c., to Christianity. As long as the Boman Church remained here they did little else than try to set up a dissentiog eeut in opposition to the old National Church of the land in which sad example they had a prolific progeny of imitators ever Eince to the present day. But whether all your readers will go so far with me makes little difference, but there is one point I propose to the consideration of all, viz Was the Church of Koine in Gregory the l..t'a time Boman Catholic (as it is now called) ? I answer dietinctly No it was lJOt. Let me prove this point. Without going into minute detail?, possibly most of your readers agree with me th-t the most obvious and broad marks and distinctions between the Homaniets and the Church of lng- land in the present day are these. (1) The Romanists hold that the Pope is by divine charter, sole ruler, supreme iudge of the faithful Bishops of every see, and iufallib!e in deciding matters of faith and morale. Some of these claims are founded on those wretched ''Forged Dooretals which are now rejected by the Papists them- selves, somo are founded on perverted quota- tions of the Holy Scriptures. (2) That the blessed Virgin and other Saints are to bo in- voked in prayer for the bestowal of grace and favours, even when Christ Himself deDies them to us. (3) That the blessed Virgin was immacu- lately conceived, (i) That imnges and pictures may receive secondary worship and homaga in honour of the person represented, (5) That the laity must never partake of the cup in Ho'y Communion. (6) That the souls of departed Christiana are tortured in Purgatory. (7) That the way to release them is by means of indul- gences, which cau be obtained by the recitation of certain prayers, or performance of certain acts, to which a fixed scale of merit is attached, and which can be applied to the profit of any deceased person. There are many other points of difference; but no one would be called a Romanist in the present day, who did not believe and practise any or indeed all these seven pomtp, whatever else he migbt bo called. Now d'd Gregory 1st and the Roman Church accept these points ? They di l not, Gregory in express words donies 1, 2, 3, 4 aud 5; and is blankly silent about (j and 7; where lie ought to have spoken ab; ut them, bad he believed or received them. Here are the proofs in his ov-n words. (1) This title Universal' wag offered during the Council of Chalccdon to the I'ont'ff of the Apostolic See But no one of my predeces- sors ever consented to so profane a title (Ep. v. 43). This title (Universal Bishop) is profane, superstitious, haughty, and invented by the first apostate" (Ep. vii. 27). "I confidoutly affirm that whoso calls himse'f, or desires to be called Universal Priest, m his pridtf goes before Anti- christ ') (Ep. vii. 33). (2) and (4). In every ó possible way avoid worshipping images And let the people humbly prostrate themselven in honour of the Almighty and Holy Trinity alone'' Ep. ix. iv. 9. 3 What human being, then, is without sin, save He who was conceived in sin P 'Jherefore, the ark was finished in one cubit, because the Author and Redeemer of Holy Church is alone without sin (Hom. in Ezech. ii. iv.) 5 c. What the Bleod of the Lamb means ye have now learnt, not by hearing but by drinking. And that Blood is put upon both doorposts, when it is not merely swallowed by the bodily mouth, but also with the mouth of the heart. (Homily to the people in Ev. ii. xxii.) Plainly, theft Gregory the Great was no Roman Catholic; ho knew nothing of their most distinctive ductri-nei-, but it was against a schism or eect set up by snrh annrthodox (in most respects) Pwpe that the British Church protested and rejected. The other consideration I would submit, is, that the Catholic Church of England not only opposed and rejected the grasping propensities in the early, comparatively pure days of Gregory 1st; but also steadily opposed and resisted her medieval and corrupt times up to Henry 8th; after that we need not say one word. Even in the days when England was in Communion (and why should she not?) with Rome, as long as she held the true faith, the Pope could not do as he pleased here, but was often resisted, not by kings only, but by the bishops too. Thus, at the Synod of Essterfield in 702 Brihtwald, Arch. bishop of Canterbury, with other prelates, deposed Wilfred of York from the episcopal dignity, because he had appealed to the rope, and would not submit to the deoieion of the English Episcopate. And Wilfrid himself iu bis speech on this occasion, charged them with having opposed the Pope for two and twenty years. Wo have often read how Wil iam the Con- queror was blessed and helped by the Pope on the conditions of being made head of the Church but which William confessed that he dare not do,, as the country and Church of England would not endure it and were against it. Archbishop Langton, who led the movement against King John, which extorted the Magna Charta, refused in 1216 to comply with the order of Popo Innocent III to excommunicate the barons and all the other English Bishops supported him savo two, one of whom was a foreigner and the other a dunce. And the same Archbishop ten years later refused to obey the Pope's ord( I, sent by a legate, to make over to him, two (tails in every Cathedral, and two monks' portioos in every monas ery. Aroh- bishop £ t. Edmund of Canterbury, a man of gentle temper, went into exile in 1240 rather than obey the commands of another pope,—to plunder the Church for the pope's advantage. Archbishop Chichele, when censured by pope Martin V. (atout 1420, for not disregarding the English laws which prevented the pope from appointing to Engish benefices, bId the pope that he himself was the only bishop in England, who did not pay any attention to orders from Rome: and when Martin V. by way of reply took away from him the rank of ex-officio legate and bestowed that title on another bishop, pro- ceeding further to excommunicate all other prelates and threaten an interdict: his Buils were stopped in 1427 by the Government, and the Archbishop appealed at once to a General Council, while the new legate was never allowed to act in that character. These are but a few samples out of scores that might be easily quoted. Century after century are surely sufficient to shew Truth that so far from the Church of England having fallen under the yoke of Rome: why, Sir, on the other hand, we kicked, aye, and kicked her down we did enact all manner of bold stat utes, and we still abide by them and such statutes are and have been effectual: if dissenters would do their duty to the old Church of their forefathers and, if half- hearted inconsistent Churchmen (as 11 Truth," More Truth appears to be) they would, pick less, bleed less,—those old sores, which really are only bad symptoms, -scars, if you like, of the battles and struggles through which the Church passed in the dreadful ages gone by, when a man's worse foes were those of his own house- hold. Why, Sip, the Church of fJngland never I acknowledged the pope to be its head; never acoounted him either absolute or infallible but opposed him stoutly whenever she thought him in the wrong. On the other hand thousands of English hearts would gladly acknowledge the primacy, but never more than of old the su- premacy of the pope. If the Romap Church will reject her endless corruptions of Scripture, doctrine, and history, if she will give up per gross forgeries and knook down the system built upon them, and return to Apostolic foundation then we shall rot have one word of quarrel with her. Again, the above arguments and facts prove, I believe, that we never dissented from Rome but Rome is the real dissenter from us. Agaif Mr Oatlin follows the example of Romanics. UNITAS.

THE ALLEGED MALPRACTlsES' SQUABBLE MR. CLEWS PROTESTS TO THE EDITOR OF THE RHYL JOURNAL. glR)—I have up to now not written a line to any paper on the subject of the illegal practioe" at the Commissioners Election ot 1888, nor on the libel action which grew out of the exposun of those practices. You have printed a great deal of nonsense on the subjeot calculated t pr ovoke controversy on my part, but I have not thought the game worth the candle, as it could result in LO good. The exposure bag had th. I effect of causing the Commissioners to adopt an improved method of conducting the election this year, which has worked admirably, so that at 'east it has been of some benefit to the town. My objact in writiog to you is to correct a statement in Mr Mostyn Williams's letter in your last issue, namely, that he was not aware that Mr Amos had subscribed a farthing to his special fund. Mr Williams did know that Mr Amos subscribed, for I told him he had myself. I am at a loss to understand why Mr Williams should have introduced my name into his letter. There was nothing so far as I remember of it in the letter to which his was a reply to make it necessary to refer to me. His manner of doing so was not a very gracious recognition of the efforts which he knows I have recently made to serve him. There are several other inaccuracies in Mr Williams's letter, but I daresay these will be noticed by the person most concerned. I am, Your Obedient Servant, Ehyl, April 16th. ARTHUR L. CLEWS.

lUlYirYOUNfi }rN'S CHRISTIAN ASSO CtitTION- ANNUAL ENTERTAINMENT For the past six years it has been the custom of the members of the local branch of the Young Men's Christian Association to hold annual enter- tainments for the benefit of the funds. These entertainments have been always so well attended, that we did not expect to see such a comparatively small house at the Town Hall on Friday evening, the occasion of the sixth annual performance. Perhaps the reason is not far to seek. The month of AI)ril is not the tiljie to dt*iw I ell C(IS as the people are busy preparing for the summer, the painters and paperhangers are visible on every hand. The piece selected for repreeHt/ltion th; year, moreover, was not of the kind to draw a house in itself, and we regret to say there ap- pears to be very few in Ivhyl who will patronize auything for the object alone. Dickeus* "Christ- mas Carol was an appropriate piece for repre- sentation no doubt, but to our mind it it; much too difficult for amateurs. It is certainly a beauti ful story to read, but when it comes to be per- formed, the changes are so frequent, and the scenes so short, that the interest cannot be sustained ex- cept by a company having histrionic ability of a high order, and this is the most essential point —to interest the audience. Everything considered, however, we think some credit is due to the per- formers for the way in which they sustained the parts, and for the determinedand plucky manner in which they met and overcame the many difficulties with which they were beset. We shall not attempt anything serious in the way of criticism. The stage arrangements were not of the best, but, for an amateur performance, very little time was lost in rearranging the scenery, property, The church-yard scene, specially designed by Mr J. McBaiu, was much admired, and the proscenium, the property of the Hall Keeper and Mr J. Ellis, joiner, was likewise the subject of favourable criticism. The principle character was, of course, Scrooge, the miser-a very difficult character to pourtray, but one in which, considering that the whole of the arrangements of the entertainment were in his hands, Mr C. W. Berrie, figured remarkably well, particularly in the opening and churchyard scenes. He sustained a lengthy part without a single hitch. The '-get up of Mr Tom Wood, as Bob Cratchit, was not what it should have been, but the part was very realistic- ally performed by this promising young man. Mr Ernest Jones deserves a word of praise for the way in which he impersonated the "Nephew," and his bearing was much better than some of his companions. He spoke very distinctly, but, at times, a trifle too fast, Undoubtedly, Marley's Ghost" (Mr J. W. Jones) was the best of the unearthly visitors, Mr David Holt being next in the part of the Ghost of Christmas Present." Miss Jenny Jones, as Ellen," fully deserved the applause awarded her after her interview with Scrooge her delineation of the character being very good. The drawing- room scene was the most pleasing, from a pectator's point of view, and the ladies, tasteful. ly arrayed and decorated, presented a charming Z, appearance. Old Joe," in the pawnshop scene, was a little too slow in his movements, but the gestures and grimaces of Dark Sam" (illr Edwin Price), Mrs Mildew (Miss Maud Williams), and Mrs Dibler (Miss Laura Jones) were both realistic and amusing. Miss Maud Williams made a capital Mrs Mildew. During the interval between the principal representation and the con eluding piece the following songs were given Later on (Mr Ernest Jones), Commissioners' Election (Mr Tom Wood), and What I should like to see (Mr C. W. Berrie.) Each singer was encored, and the latter, we believe, was the author of the pieces. In The Bashful Man Mr Blushington was the most marked character, Smart and Dashwood following in the order of merit. On the whole the piece was well played, and we can only regret that the proceeds will not very materially enrich the Association. Characters in A Christmas Carol." Ebenezer Scrooge, the Miser,—Mr C.

PRESTATYN. SEAFIELD ALIAS BRITISH SCHOOL.-Your con- temporaries have been much exercised of late about the National School versus Seafield, alias British School. The National School is con- ducted well by the present master, and has passed a very creditable Examination all which seem to excite the ire of certain parties in and out of the place but no complaint in the least has ever been made except by two or three restless spirits, dissatisfied with every thing except them- selves, who objected to their children being taught the scripture lessons. There is no misrepresenta- tion too bad, no untruth too baseless, to spread about our school. The Seafield, alias British School, was conducted in pure opposition to our National School by a Miss Hall, till H.M.I.53. was requested to visit it, and who condemned it on all points, deficient in building conveniences, deficient in apparatus, and deficient in teaching. When Miss Hall had to go, the school was taken charge of by a Mr J. H. Savage, in the same condemned building, and with the same deficient apparatus. Moreover, as the said J. H. Savage has not passed his examination last Christmas, and is without the required certificate, lie is therefore ready "I presume to make his exit too. Your con- temporary rightly described the school as carried on by Miss Payne no doubt, a very painful subject to them, as no Miss Payne has ever kept school Lere.-Sat.

ST. JACOBS OIL AMONG ATHLETES. Mr Henry Hutton, of Elvrrt Bridge, Durham, says: In July I injured my shoulder while bowling. I suffered great pain from it for the remainder of the season. I tried linaments and embrocations without benefit. In Sep- tember I applied St. Jacobs Oil, and before 1 had used balf the contents of one bottlo the pain had entirely gone, and I could 1380, my arm again freely. I think St. Jacobs 0:1 invaluable ts cricketers for pain, bruises, and stiffness." Mr William Pagan, of the Liverpool Harriers, writes I having used the St. Jneobs Oil myself, and knowing other members of this olub who use no other remedy after their exercises and races, I have no hesitation in recommending it to a!l athletes." The London Daily Sportsman remarks editorially :—" A really invaluable specific, for the cure of rheumatism, neuralgia, sprains, bruiser, &c., has gaiued immense fame in a!l parts of the world. Keferenoo is made to t. Jacobs Oil. We should csrtainl y say that the Oil is worthy of all attention, and that athletes especialy, who are subject to bruises and strainp, will testify to its undoubted efficacy." William Beach, of Australia, Champion UHrs- man of the World, iaitys: I have found t. Jacobs Oil of greatest service in training. For atiffoea- cramos, muscular pains and soreness it is invalucblo. 1 always keep a bottle of it with m." Mr A. E. Painter, the farncus jumper, of the London Athletic Club, strained and bruised his ankle in jumping burdlei5 so as to disable him- self. He used St. Jacobs Oil with most marvel- lous results. Mr E. J. Wade, of the same club, and of the Ranelagh Harriers, sprained his leg and cured it in the same way."

GENERAL NOTES AND JOTTINGS. It is said that a little learning is a dangerous thing, and those Welsh members of the Flint- shire County CoudciI who insisted upon the word Callestr" being engraved on the Council's seal had better take the saying to heart. They thought that the word Flint was English, and consequently translated it into "OalJestr," as others equally unlearned have translated the Pope's Bull" (ediot, rescript), into "Tarw'r Pab," and Castell Dioaa Brau into "Crow's Castle." There are rco flint-stones in this county, and the word Flint is derived from the Latin "fleutia," a confluence or a stream, Flint Cattle, from which the town and county after- wards took their names, having been erected on the banks of the D.,e.as it pours itself into the sea. I note that the Rector of Llanelidan has been conducting a Welsh Mission in an English town —Chester—but a town in which there are hundreds of Welsh people resident. A contem- porary slates that the subjects of his addresses were Sunday, March 31st: The good news," The importance of life," Christ pleading with the sinner Monday "Spiritual untruthful- JJe8 II Tuesday: "Man as a treasurer:" Wednesday I.

The rev. gentleman's eloquent and earnest discourses were attentively listened to. There wero overfljwmg congregations on both Suudays, while the week-tiigiit, services were fairly well attended, considering that the congre- gation consists of the wage-earning clags who live in all of the t-jwn. The Rev. Canon Howell, vicar of Wrexbam, preached the con- cluding sermon. It is said that the church clock is to be thoroughly overhauled, and besides being cleansed inside, ho outer fac3 is to receive tit. tention. The fingers do not work as evenly as they should do, and the birds which at times rooet on them are, by the putting up of wire guards, to be prevented the use of the clock's faces in future for any purpose. How it was the clock- maker did not foresee the necessity of these guards when fixing the clock is a matter which I cannot explain. The Cheshire Volunteers as well ae those of Bolton are going to encamp at Rhyl this year again, thosa of Rochdale going elsewhere. When the question was asked the Cheshire men if they wished to visit Rhyl they almost to a man answered in tho affirmative. The Rev. Jjsiah Jones, of Flint, who recently declined a call to the pastorate of Bethel, Vale Road, hat entered on the duties of Chairman of the Flintshire Presbytery, in succession to the Rev. Edward Roberts, of Brymbo. The annual census of Wesleyan membership has been taken. The Rhyl cirouit shews 103 members, an increase of 3, 14 on trial, and 67 juniors. The North Wales Coast Mission 201 members, 16 increase, 12 on trial. In the Whitchurch (Salop) circuit there has been an increase of 70 members. The Bishop of Llandaff recently confirmed a Baptist minister who has since entered Birming- ham Theological College, and it is announced that he is about to ordain an ex-Independent Minister, and a well-known minister of the CalviniBtio Methodist body-a young man of great promise." The latter is Rev. J. Williams, late pastor of Libanus Chapel, Maesteg. In the connexional examination he was braoketed first throughout the whole of Wales. Easter is on the threshhold, and with the recent and continued improvement in the weather there is a prospect of an influx of visitors to Rhyl for their holidays. Easter falls on a late date this year. The festival is always held on the first Sunday after the full moon which happens upon or next after the 21st March. This plan for the fixing of Easter was decided upon at the first Council at Nice, held in the year 325, the Emperor Constantine being present Therefore, Eiitter may fall upon uny Sundaj within five weeks after the 22nd March, the latest day being the 25th Apri). In the present year Easter day is on the 21st April, and it wil aot fall sj late again till 1905, when the 23rd April will be he festival, and again the lIame date in 1916. The result of the contest at Birmingham must be gratifying and encouraging to all Uuionists, and a comparison Detweea tho general electiOL of 1885 and the bye-eleotions which have since taken place is equally satisfactory Fiom a dr. tailed statement before me I find that the Unionists polled 159 8('0 in places whore the ? nave been bye-elections, a compared with 151.941 in 1885 whilst the Gla Jstoniaus polled 172,852 at bye eleotions, es compa ed with 182,798 in 1S85.

Any impartial man must feal with Lord Aberdare that the indictment brought against the Act by the Western illail has been proved to the hilt. There are, of course, scores of persons who have no reliable data to go upon, ready enough to declare that the Act has proved itself a success and a boon but not ono of them has ventured to rebut the Mail's fact3 aud figures. A royal commission is about baing appointed to enquire into the operat!«n ot the Act, and an impartial inquisition of that kind will doubtless settle the question onco for all.

HOLLOWAYS PILLS-Weary of Life-Derangement of the liver is one of the most efficient causes of dangerous diseases, and the most prolific source of those melancholy forebodings which are worse than death itself. A few doses of these noted Pills act magically in dispelling low spirits and repelling the covert attacks made on the nerves by excessive heat, impure at- mosphere, over-indulgence, or exhausting excitement. The most shattered constitution may derive benefit from Holloway's Pills, which will regulate disordered action, brace the nerves, increase the energy of the intellectual faculties, and revive the failing memory. By attentively studying the instructions for taking these Pills and explicitly putting them in praetice, the most desponding will soon feel confident of a perfect recovery.

Mr Moses Know'eg, of lOP, 0 Road, Burnley, who was interviewed h? OI1 of our representatives a day or two ago, j had some experience of the trying conditions of labour in some of the deeper coalmines of thb oountry. He has only just reached middle ago. but bas found it advisable to abandon the occupation of a miaer to which he was brought up. He relates how be has repeatedly had to work for hours crouched in ten or twelve inches of water aDd the oo!d liquid at the same time dropping all over his body from above. To leave a comfortable bed at three or four in the morning and begin work in a pool ot cold spring I water is bad enough, but to continue the em. ployment after one is thoroughly saturated i, would make havoc of the most robust frnme. Happily such conditions of employment are: almost unknown in the Burnley district, but Mr j Knowles bus had to encounter them in otlmr mining localities, and hns been a paw ful Bufferer in consequeoeo. He firet commenced with pans in his head, which gradually extended to other parts of the body. I got so low," said Kuowles to our reporter, th-vt I was obliged to have a chair close to the fire even on a warm day. Not only so but I was heaped round with blankets, and a elothes maidon covered with bedclothes was put round the obair to beep the draughts off. It was only then I could feel anything like warmth. My legs got so weak that I had to have the help of a stick to get across the floor, I was terribly troubled with indigestion, nervous debility, and disease of the hver and kidneys, and bad constant attDck of cramp in the stomach. Those only who have endured it," continued Mr Knowles, can tell what cramp in the stomach means. I bad to keep the night lamp burning and always have at band somo brandy or other warming Composition. For a good many weeks I suffered very hard, writhing in pain for hours together, and got so wenk that it was painful to speak, let alone trying to move. I wasted a great deal of money on herbal remedies and waa under the treatment of two different doctors. Medicine only seemed to make me worse, and I got to that state that my friends gave me up and the doctor ventured to off)r no hope of a cure. At last I read 0De tf Warner's j pamphlets, and in going over the symptoms of several cases mentioned there as being cured I felt convinced my complaint was the same. Well. I sent for a bottle of Warner's SAFE Cure' straight away, and I shall always be delighted to say a good word for :t wherever I am for the grod it did me. I felt a slight bet efit before the first bottle was done, and with each succeeding bottle I got ni)re confident than ever that I was on tha right track of being brought round. In a few weeks I was a new man. My appetite had returned, thn weakness had disappeared and I was back at my work at the pit, feeling stronger than I had done for years." ¡r Knowles has since left oft coal-getting, and now keeps a shop ia Oxford Road. Our representative found him the other evening in the best of spirits and apparently in robust health, looking won- derfully vigorous for a man who h'; been in the position described. r Knowles grew en- thusiastic in his praise of Warner's *-AIR Cure, declaring that he had so much confidence in it that he had offered to pay for bottles for some of the neighbours out of his own pooket if it did not bring about a cure. He bad dono this re- peatedly, but never been called on to pay as the medicine bad never been a failure.

RHYL CHURCH NEWS. (From the Parish Marjazinc.j SALE OF WORK. On Tuesday, the 19th nit., a meeting of ladies was held at the Vicarage to make arrangements for a Sale of Work with a view to the extinction of the debt on St. John's Church as well as to tiled some improvements in the internal fittings and the surroundings of the fabric. After mature consideration it has been resolved to hold the sale on the 18th of July, in the Pavilion of the Rhyl Palace and Summer Gardens, kindly lent for the occasion by Mr Roebuck, and to invite as many ladies as possible to take StRIlF. These need not be large and it is hoped there will be from ten to twenty volunteers, whose names may be inserted in our next number. We trust the somewhat novel character of a Grand Sale of Work in the beautiful grounds of the Summer Gardens, amidst shrubs and flowers, will attract many friends of the undertaking, and produce such a substantial return as will not only wipe out the debt but also supply all the needful require- ments of St. John's, so that no further sales for this purpose may be necessary. Meanwhile, contributions and donations will be thankfully received. Mrs Kicliaidson desires to acknowledge with many thanks a contribution from Mils Rimmer

1 OUR BIBLE WOMAN. We desire to acknowledge with many thanks the donation of ten shillings from a Friend in response to the appeal made in our last. We trust those who ap. preciate the good work which is being carried on through this instrumentality will kindly come forward and support it with their contributions. Donations and subscriptions will be gratefully received and acknow. ledged. P.S.-In addition to the Subscriptions named "in a former number we beg to acknowledge with many thanks donations of ten shillings each from Miss Taylor and Miss Beeson. The deficit is thus reduced to nine pounds more or less.

SUMMER SERVICES. Our readers will be pleased to know that the Rev. James Gallie has again kindly consented to come to our aid for the Summer Services, and to undertake duty for a few weeks in July during the brief holiday of our senior curate. Mr Gallie has recently been called upon to pub- lish a very striking sermon on one of the burning questions of the day-" Christian Socialism."—Those who would like to see what a man of warm sympathies, and sound judgment has to say on such a subject would do well to procure a copy, which may be had at Miss G ithrie's, The Emporium, High Street, for the small SURU Of OLe panny.

Bad Legs, Bad Breasts, Old Sores and Ulcers. Ty rubbing the Ointment round the affected ports, it pene- trates to the tissues beneath, and exercises a wonderful power on ail the blood flowing to. and returning from, the diseased part. The inflammation diminishes, the pain becomes less intolerable, the matter thicker, and a cure is soon effected. In ail long-standing cases, Holloway's Pills should also be taken, as they will thoroughly expel all depraved humours from the body. Gout, Rheumatism, Stiff Joints. Gout and Rheumatism arise from inflammation in the parts afTected. To effect a permanent cure, adopt a cooling diet, drink picnty of water, take six of Holloway's Pills night all! morning, and rub this Ointment most effectually twice a-day into the suffering parts when used simultaneously, they drive all inflam- mation and depression from the system, subdue and remove all enlargements of the joints, and leave the sinews and muscles la* and uaconlracted.
