This "Syrup ! ' has been used,tind its astonishing cu
peetieiti testified tO; by many of the most res
pectablcitizens of thc United States. We do not, nay
cannot claim as -the- quark does infallibility for our.
medicine; but having tested the medicine qualities. of
the "Pulmonary Syrup," in an extensive and varied
Medical Practise for many years, with unpredecented
success, we unhesitatingly pronounce it one of the ye
gy-best remedies in the world. for Pulmonary Diseases.
Give it a fair trial, and you will he thoroughly convin
ced, that it is not one of iSe common quack nostrums of
the day, but a medicine of real value—one that is well
worthy of the high end enviable reputation, which it
has woo: and one Worthy to be in' every -family. A
nother reason, why Au. should usethe " Pulmonary
syrup," is its remarkable cheapness, while other med
icines less in quantity and inferior in efficacy, are sel

with a cotteli, that became en severe and alarming, in
three or four weeks, that I almost despaired of seer a
fain .recorering nyfertacr brood health I was so - much
reduced, that I could hardly place one font before the
other at night, I *as obliged to' lay bolstered up ?
'toy bed; when I laid down, I was afraid of suffocating
from excessive coughirnf; and it was with the utmost
difficulty, that I cOnlii raise the matter from my lungs.
My relations and friends, quite despaired of my ever
recovering. I used a number of medicines, without
any desirable effect!! At this critical period. I was so
fortunate as to procure eeme of your Pulmonary Syr
tup, which immediately enabled me to expectorate with
ease, and by the time I had taken four bottles,was
perfectly cured of my enug.h, and my flesh, which . I had
losi, twenty pounds, returned with my usual strength.
And by the blessing of Divine Providence. upon the
means used,. I was , in two months perfectly cured. I
am now as well as I ever was, and have no Cough, nor
the least effects of my former disease . .
