Dn..l. H. Setnezeit, —DearSir,—l am induced
from a sense of justice towards you, as well as
duty to the public, to make known one of the
most hopeless and extraordinary cures, in my
(non person, that you have ever had the pleasure
to record. Indeed, I regret my inability to por-
tray, in truthful colors, my consuming disease,
and the remarkable chance which Schneck's
Pulmonary Syrup effected in so short a time.
I was taken some time previous to December
1848, with a heavy cold, producing incessant
coughing, accompanied with acute pain in the
right side, pains in the back, under the right
shoulder, having heavy night sweats, high fevers
&c., which made me 80 nervous and restless as
to produce utter prostration. All these afflictions
increased with duel violence, that on the 4th of
January lust I sent for my family physician. Ile
attended me faithfully, and prescribed every thing
that medical skill could suggest, but without ef

and my hopes of recovery lessening as my dis
ease increased. My cough became distressing ;
my pains severe; end, extremely debilitated, 1
lost all ambition in life, and gave up to a melan
choly depression. My physician examined ine,
and informed me I hail an obsess on the upper
part of my liver and lower part of one of my lungs.
Notwithstanding ell this kill, I grew worse, but
' with that tenacity with which we all cling to life,
I concluded to leave nothing undone, and called
in a consulting physician, who fully concurred
with my own, and pronounced my case an ex
tremely critical one. He thought I was in im

DM A. M. MAURICEAU—IiIy Deer Sir: ' The
Married Woman's Private Medical Companion,' for
which I enclosed one dollar to your address, came
safely to hand. I would not have troubled you with
these few lines, but that I am impelled by a sense
of gratitude, for myself and wife, to give utterance
"to our sincere and heartfelt emotions.
" My wife has been perceptibly sinking for some
three years or more, in consequence of her groat an.
guish and suffering some months before and during
confinement; every imcceesive one mom and more
debilitated and prostrated her, putting her life in
minent danger, and which was, on tile last occasion.

inevitable, and resigned myself' to meet the worst.
At this time (now about two months) r heard your
book highly spoken of. as containing some shatters
reaching my case. On its receipt and perusal, I can
not express to you the relief it mrorded my distressed
mind and the ioy its pages imparted to my wife, on
learning that the great discovery of M. M. Deer
meeux provided a remedy. It opened a prospect to
me which I little conceived was possible. No pecu
niary consideration can ever repay the obligations
am under to you for having been the means of ins•
parting tons the matters contained in' The Married
Woman's Private Medical Companion.' But for
this, ere another. year woula have passed over my
head, in all human probability my wife would have
been in her grave, and my children left motherless."

see that I can not do so too warmly, when I inform
you of the extent to which I have, through it, been
benefited. I will state my situation when I obtained

It as one of the most fortunate events of my life. I
had been married some ten yearn, and was the father
of seven children. I ',es long straggling unceasingly
to the end that I might gain a moderate competency,

constant effort wan beginning to have its effect upon
my health: I felt lea capable to endure its comma

" This constant, unceasing struggle on my part was
imperative, in consequence of the prostrated condi

years, much of the time confined to her bed, and of
course incapable of taking the charge and manage
