M. Bowman—Dear Sir:—l feel it my duly to let you know what your compound lias done for my daugh ter, and wislt you to publish it if you can in hope that some suffering one may be induced by it to try your val uable medicine and be cured. My daughter was irarried in 1853, and went to Cincinnati to live, wiiere Iter hus band (James Hoyt,) was engaged in business, in six months alter her husband died, and I sent for her to come home, where in four months she was confined and caught cold which settled on herlungs. It seemed as though we could get nothing to help her We tried six different physicians for over one year and then sent to New Turk to a celebrated physicim there, and she took medicine from him for eight months ; but lie could not cure her.- Iler cough w as fixed and stubborn and seemed as though it would tear her breast during the paroxysm of cough, and her breathing as at times very difficult. Failing to get relief front physicians, we thought we would try Ay er's Cherry Pectoral, and she took it regular for seven weeks, but it did her no pcruiatientgiiod. We then tried Sellers' Imperial Cough Syrup, but with all she still be came worse, and it seemed as though she was beyond cure, when one day my wife was in at one of our neigh bor's houses (Mr. Mayness') and she saw them give your \ egetable Compound to one of their children for a cough and she got three or four doses to bring home and try it. After my daughter had taken it she breathed a little eas ier, and We sent and got a bottle of it, and when it was taken there was a marked change for the better. 1 then got six bottles, the most of which she took as directed until finally cured—it is three uiouths since, and she has not had a symptom of the old complaint, ami is getting as lusty as she ever was. We all unite in our prayers to God that you may be prospered and that your Vegetable Compound may be the means of restoring health to many, as it lias to one who is dear to us ; we cheerfully recom mend it to the public as the best medicine for Lung Dis eases that we ever got hold of.
