    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 Prescription.
•
A compound Balsamic preparation of the
Prunus Virginiana of 'Wild Cherry Bark,'
combined with the Extract of Tar, prepa•
red by a chemical process, approved and
recommended by the in.,st distinguished
physicians, and universally acknowledged
the mist valuable medicine ever discovered.
No Quackery ! / No Deception.
In setting forth the virtues of this truly
great medicine, we have no desire to deceive
those who are aboring under the affliction,
nor do we wish to eulogize it more than it
deserves. Yet we look around and see the
east amount of suffering and distress occa
sioned by many of the. diseases in which this
medicine has proved so highly successful,
we feel that we cannot urge its claims too
strongly, or say too much in its favor.
Varion. remedies it is true have been of
fered and puffed 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 discovvred, it is admitted by
physickus 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 reno dies 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 cares
after all hopes of recovery had been dis
paired of.
In the first stage of the disease, termed
Catarrhal Consumption ' originating from
neglccted COLDS, it has been used with un
derhiting success, and hundreds acknowl
edge they owe the restoration of their health !
to this invaluable medicine alone, in that
form of c aisumption so prevalent amongst!
delicate young females, commonly termed
debiiity, 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 invigorates the system
more etre( Wally than any medicines we have
ever possessed.
Besides its suprising efficacy in consump
tion, it is equally efficacious in Liver Com
plaint, Asthma, Bronchitis, and all affec
tions of the Lungs, and has cured many of
the mist obstinate cases, atter every other
remedy had failed. 7 For particulars see
Dr. Wistor's treaties on consumption, to be
had of the agents.
WEISE LIFE REMAINS WE STILL HAVE
Soiu HOPE.
A SURPRISING CultE.---Amon& the many
singular cures which this medicine has ef
fected, there is perhaps none in which its
powers are so fully 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 rec, iced 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, exuectorated large quantities of matter
occasionally tinged with blood, and step by
step this fearful disease continued its
course, until all hopes of u 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 almost like a charm. In a few days
she expectorated freely, the cough as 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 for_years.
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.
Liven COMPLAINT.--Mrs. Eliza Thomp
son was afflicted with this complaint tor
nearly five years, during which time she was
under the moat skilful physicians—had tried
Mercury, Botanic and Homcepathic 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 hack, 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 in,.
few weeks, and remains well to this day.

cine has already found hundreds of powerful

Friend Wistat•:-4t 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 Wild 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

T homas Read, Esq. of this place, and ts icd
it in a case of obstinate Asthma un a child of

dies had been tried without any relief. The
Balsam gave sudden relief, and in my opin

SPITTING OF BLOOD,
Is another dangerous symptom of Pulmo
nary ✓lffection, and difficult to arrest when
neglected; it commences with cough, copi
ous expectoration, which consists of bright
frothy matter, or black, and clotted with
blood; there is mostly some fever, headache,
palpitation of the heart, flushes of heat, sod
redness of the cheeks; difficulty of breathing,
soreness of the throat, and saltish taste in
the mouth, &c. Dr. Duncan'a Expectorant
Remedy will be found to arrest this com
plaint. One single bottle in many cases will
answer if used at the first attack, but when
neglected, it may require many more.—
Those who are afflicted with Spitting of
Blood should loose no time in procuring the
above medicine, as this disease mostly
proves serious when not early attended to.
