    For Consumption of the
Lungs•
Affections of the Liver, Asthma, Bronchitis,
Pains or Weakness of the Breast or Lungs,
Chronic Coughs, Pleurisy, Hemorrhage
of the Lungs, and all affections of the
Pulmonary Organs
Nature's own Prescriplon.
A comyound Balsamicpreparation of the'
Prunus ViTiniana of .VV ild C berry Bark,'
combined with the Extract of Thr, prepa
red by a chemical process, approved and
recommended by the must distinguished
physicians, and universally acknowledged
the most valuable medicine ever discovered.
No Quackery ! ! No Deception,
In setting forth the virtues of this truly
great medicine, we have no desire to deceive
these who are laboring under the affliction,
nor do we wish to eulogize it more than it
deserves. Yet we look around and see the
vast amount of suffering and distress occa
sioned by many of the diseases in which this
medicine has proved so highly successful,
we feet that we cannot urge its claims too
strongly, or say too much in its favor.
Variou, remedies it is true have been of
fered and pulled into notice for the cure of
diseases of the Lungs, and some have no
doubt been found very useful, bat all that
have yet been discovered, it is admitted by
physicians and all others who have witness
ed its effects, that none have proved as suc
cessful as this. Such, indeed, are the
Surprising Virtues
Of this Balsam, that even in the advanced
stages of Consumption, after all the most
esteemed remedies of physicians have failed
to effect any change, the use of this medi
cine has been productive of the most aston
ishing relief, and actually effected cures
after all hopes of recovery had been dis
paired of.
In the first stage of the disease, termed
Catarrhal Consumption, originating from
neglected COLDS, it has been used with un
deviating success, and hundreds acknowl
edge they owe the restoration of their health
to this invaluable medicine alone, in that
form of consumption so prevalent amongst
delicate young females, commonly termed
debility, or
Going into a Decline,"
A complaint with which thousands are lin
gering. it has also proved highly successful,
and not only possesses the power of checking
the progress of this alarming complaint, but
also strengthens and inviviraites the system
more dive tually than any medicines we have
ever possessed.
Besides its suprising efficacy in consump
tion, is equally efficacious in Liver Com
plaint, Asthma, Bronchitis, and all aff, c- ,
thins of the Lungs, and has cured many of
the mist obstinate cases, alter every other
remedy had failed. g 7• For particulars see
Dr. Wistor's treaties on consumption, to be
had of the agents.
WHILE LIFE REMAINS WE STILL HAVE
SOME HOPE,
A SURPRISING CuRE.---Among the many
singular cures which this medicine has ef
fected, there is perhaps none in which its
powers are so hilly shown as in the case of
Mrs. Austin.
This lady has been consumptive for• seve
ral years, and during the greater part of this
time had recz-ived the best medical attention,
and tried all the most valuable remedies, yet
nothing could be found to arrest its progress.
She became subject to violent fits of cough
ing, expectorated large quantities of matt r
occasionally tinged with blood, and step by
step this feartul disease continued its
course, until :AI hopes f a recovery was des
paired of. While in this distressing situa
tion, lingering upon the very verge of the
grave, she commenced the use of this Bal
sam, which, to use her own expressien, op
perated almostlike a charm. In a few days
she expectorated freely, the cough was gra
dually suppressed, and every day appeared
to add fresh vigor to her looks, and now, in
the place of that emaciated form withering
to decay, she is seen mingling in society, in
better health than she has enjoyed fouears.
DISINTERESTED TESTIMONY.----Having
witnessed the surprising efficacy of Dr•.
Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, in the
case of Mrs. Austin, I cheerfully acknowl
edge the above statement to be true and cor
rect.
J. C. WALTERS, M. D.
LIVER COMPLAINT.---Mrs. ElizA Thomp
son was afflicted with this complaint for'
nearly five years, during which time she was
under the most skilful physicians—had tried
Mercury, Botanic and Hommpathic reme
dies, and every thing that offered her any
hopes of relief She had dull, wandering
pains in her side, sometimes in the shoulder
and small of the back, a hacking cough, fre
quent pains in the breast, and had been una
ble to sleep on her right side for three years.
By the use of this Balsam she was cured M a
few weeks, and remains well to this day.
ELIZA THOMPSON.
Woodstown, Sept. 4, 1842.
Dear Sir:—Although your valuable medi
cine has already found hundreds of powerful
advocates, it still may be gratifying to you to
receive a communication from any one that
has been relieved by it. Such, sir is truly
my ease. I hive been a victim of that terri
ble disease consumption, for many months,
and have suffered so much, that I had be
come almost weary of my life. He.tring
your Balsam so highly praised, I began ta
king a few weeks back, and can assure you
that it has relieved me more than any thing
I have ever used before, and 1 couhdently
believe it will cure me effectually. Please
give the bearer the worth of the enclosed,'
and oblige
Yours Respectfully,
JOHN PEARSON.
Chester county, Sept 6, 1841.
Friend Wistar:--It gives me much► plea-,
sure to inform thee that my wife's health► has
improved very much since she has been
using thy Balsam of ‘Vild Cherry, and we
think there is no doubt it will cure her. She
has taken the two bottles I purchased from
thee a short time since, and her cough is
much better, she also sleeps well at night,
and says she has found nothing to give her
so much relief. 'Thee will please give the
bearer two bottles more for
Thy Friend,
EDWARD HOLMES.

I i, an,m, a physioian ,f ..xtensive practice in
Huntingdon county :
Dear Sit :-1. - procured one bottle of Dr.
‘Vistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, from
1* homas Read, Esq. of this place, and tried
, it in a case of obstinate Asthma on a child of
Paul Schwcble,. in which many other reme
dies had been tried without any ',Ad. 'f he
Balsam gave sudden relief, and in my opin
ion the child is effectuelly cured by its use.
Yours, &c.
JACOB HOFFMAN, M. D.
Dec. 28, 1841.
Dear Sin—Your balsam of Wild Cherry
has effected some astonishing cures here.—
One of which is an old lady, Mrs. Russel,
who has been suffering for a long time with
shortness of breathing, and general weak
ness, until she was finally obliged to keep
her bed. After various other remedies had
la en resorted to in vain, she commenced
using your Balsam, and after taking two bot
tles was so far recovered as to be able to at
tend to all the duties of her house, and on
taking two bottles more was entirely cured.
