RY, the great American Remedy for corn.
plaints and affections of the Respiratory Organs.
We do not wish to traffic with the lives or health of
the afflicted, and we sincerely pledge ourselves to
make no assertions as to the virtues of this medicine,
and to hold out no hopes to suffering humanity which
facts will not warrant.
We ask the attention of tho candid to the following
considerations.
Nature in every part of her works, has left indelli
ble marks of adaptation and design.
The constitutkin of the animals and vegetables of
the tort id, is suob that they could not endure the cold
of the frigid case, and vice versa.
In regard toillNease.and itA cure, the adaptation is
mama? lairdTlPlting.
The biota oflceland, the NV ild Cherry and Pines of
all Northern latitudes, (and Dr. %Vistaed Balsam is a
compound end chemical extract from these,) have
Ilnefitseen celebrated for complaints prevalent only in
cold climates, Indeed the most distinguished medi

COUDtryznedicioet for its peculiar diseases,

Cons in its con fi rmed an/ incipient stages,
Coughs, • , Croup, and Liver complaint, form
by far the..ir fatal class of diseases known to our
land. Yet worm theses may be cured, by means of the
simple yet powerful remedied, named above, and
which are unuttered, by a beneticient l'rovidence,
wherever those, maladies prevail.

SPRI:VG/lELD; Ky., May 14, 1845.
Meson Sanford & Park—Gents—l take this oppor
tnnity of Informing you of a most remarkable cure
performed upon me by the use of Br. Wistar's Balsam
of Wild Cherry.
In the year of 1840 I was taken with an infflamma.
lion of she bowels, which I labored under for fa weeks
when I gradually recovered. In the fall of 1831 1 was
attacked with a severe chill, which seated itself upon
my lungs; and for the space of three years I was con
fined to my bed. I tried ell Linda of medicine., and
every kind of medical aid without benefit, and thus I
wearied along until the winter of 1314, until I heard
o f B•lsam of Wild Cherry."
My frletdy punamded me to give it a trial, though
I had given up all hopes of - recovery and had prepared
myself for the change of soother world. Through
their solicitations 1 wag induced to make use of the
Genuine Winer-1r Ilaltarn of Wild Cherry. The effect
was truly astonishing,. After five years of affliction,
rein and suffering: arid after having spent four or five
hundred dollars to no purpose MIA the best and moat
respectable physicians had prayed unavailing, 1 lan.
soot, restored to entire health by the blessini of God
arid the use of Br. Will2ll ' .l Balsam of 11 ild Cherry.
I am now enjoying good health and such is my ul
ra te d appearance that I am no longer known when 1
meet my former acquaintances.
I have gained rapidly in weight. and my flesh is
firm and solid. I ran now of "much as any person.
and my food seems to agree with me. I hive eaten
more during the last ■ix mortal* than I had r e li ct) Enc.
years Itefore.

it the demand for the snide that I do not wish to be

Dr. 1V tsr•R•S Bethaln of Wild Ckrrry is admitted
by thousands of disinterested witnesses, to have effect.
ed the most extraordinary cures in cases of a pulmo

the history of medicine.
The young, and beautiful, the good, all speak forth
its praise. It i■ now the faeorite medicine in the
most intelligent families of our country.
Such a high stand in public estimation has been a.
ehieved by Its own merits alone. And so long as a
discerning public are careful to get Wister's Ila
tra Wiiri Cherry, and refuse with scorn counter
