"f X7IIERF the above preparation is known, it is so well
\ * estaMi-h.ed a- an infallible Remedy for the cure of
Coughs. Colds, S re Throat. Hoarseness. Bronchitis, Spit
ting of Blood, Pain in the Breast, Croup, WJjpopmg
Cough, and every forn of pclmoxaky complaint. that it
were a work of supererogation to speak of its merits.
Discovered bv a well known physician newc than twenty
years since, it has hv the wonderu! euros it has effected;
been constantly appreciating in public favor, until its use
and its reputation arc alike unirergal; and it ta now known
and cherished l>v all (and their " name is legion"') who
have been restored to health by its use as the ore AT Rttii-
Elv for the di-eases vvhicli its professes to cure.
Sir James Clark, physician to Queen Victoria.has givau
it as his opinion that
CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED!
The whole history of this Medicine fully confirms tlio
opinion of that eminent man. Thousands can testify, and
have testified, that when ail other remedies had failed.this
has completely cured : and that the sufferer had well nigh
despaired, this has afforded immediate relief ; that wi.eu
the physician had pronounced the disease incurable, this
has removed it entirely.
The virt ies o this Balsam are alike applicable to euro
a slight cold <>r a Confirmed Consumption, and its power
as a safe, certain, speedy, pleasant and effectual remedy
cannot be equalled.
