Old Sores, Wounds, Ulcers, &c.-The readiness with which Holloway's unguent removes all obstructions of the circulation in the vessels and lymphatics, explains their irresistible influence in healing old sores, bad wounds, and indolent ulcers. To insure the desired effect, the skin surrounding the diseased part should be fomented, dried, and immediately well rubbed with weakened nerves, the only conditions necessary for the cure of all these the ointment. This will give purity to the foul blood and strength to the hideous ulcerations which render life almost intolerable. No sooner is this ointment's protective power exerted than the destructive process ceases and the constructive business begins. New healthy growths appear to fill up the lately painful excavated pit.
