evidences of its success, from which they can

to suffeiing humanity which facts will not warrant .
Many proofs are here given, and we solicit an
inquiry from the public into all we publish, leelicg
assured they will find then - , perfectly reliable, and
the medicine worthy their best confidence and
patronage.
From the distinguished Professor of Chemistry and
filateria Medico, Bowdoin College •
Dear Sir: I delayed answering the receipt'of
your preparation, until I had an opportunity of wit
nessing its effects in my own family, or in the
families of my friends.
Th. I have now done with a high degree of sat
isfactionrin cases both of adults and children.
I have hiund it, as its ingredients show, a pow..f
erthl remedy for cold; and coughs, and pulmonary
diseases. PAREER CLEAVELAND, M. D.

From an Overseer in the Hamilton Mills, in this city.
Dr. J. C. Ayer: I have been cured of the worst
cough I ever had in my life, by your "Cherry Pec
toral," and never fail, when I have opportunity, of
recommending it to others.
Yours, respectfully,
S. D. Elusion.
Read the following, and see if this medicine is
worth 'a trial. The patient had become very fee

While using your medicine, I had the gratifica

irrThe following was ono of tho worst of CAIN,
which the physicians and friends thought to be in
curable consumption:
CiIESTER, Pa., Aug. 22, 1848
J. C. Ayer,—Sir: I was taken with a terrible
cough, brought on by a cold, in the beginning of
last February, and was confined to my bed more
than two months. Coughing incessantly night and
day, I became ghastly and pale, my eyes were sun
ken and glassy, and my breath very short. Indeed,
I was rapidly failing, and in such distress for breath
that but little hope for my recovery could be en
tertained. Whiie in this situation, a friend of
mine, (the Rev. John Keller, of the Methodist
church) brought me a bottle of your Cherry Pecto
ral, which I tried more to gratify him, than from
any expectation of obtaining relief. Its good effect
'educed me to continue its use, and I soon found
my health much improved. Now in three months,
I am well and strong, and can attribute my cure
only to your great meicine.
With the deepest gratitude, yours, &c.,
