No. 15. For the benefit of t,lmatilieted we feel
it a duty to giro the following testimony in relit
tion to a young gentleman, who was cured of
Coniumption,by Dr. J. W. Cooper's Indian Vege
table Cough or Consumptive Syrup, prepared now
only by C. I'. Ilewes.
Tu the Editor of the Franklin Repository.
. „
Stu:—l wish you to confer a favor on me and
the afflicted; hoping that other papers may copy
fur the benefit of the afflicted at large, that they
may have an opportunity of being relieved as I
have liens. I had been troubled with a pain in
my side mid breast for three veurs, attended with
a very bail cough, which the * Doctors said was an
affection of the lungs. lat last was so severely
attacked that 1 was confined to Illy bed, and out
of my head the most part of toy time• ' the cough
was incessant, and I spit blood streak ed with mat
ter. I sent for Dr. Cooper, he gave me his Indi
an Vegetable Cough, or Consumptive Syrup, and
the third day I commenced throwing up matter
and blood to the quantity of a pint a day; the
smell was so bad that my mother. had to burn
Peaches and sugar to keep down the smell; but
the smell was so bad that it had very little effect.
All that had seen me, said that it was impossible
for the to recover, us I was in the last stage of
consumption; but I continued to take 1)r. Coop
er's celebrated Indian Medicine, mid in seVen
weeks I was able to do work of any kind, and I
am at this time sound and well. In giving this
certificate, I conceive it to be a duty I owe to the
public at huge, rind I think it would hen ditty for
other editors to copy this certificate, that those
suffering under the same disease may hove nn op
portunity of getting cured. Yours, respectfully,
JAMES M'CRAY.
One mid a half miles from Chambersburg.
. .
I do hereby certify, that I saw the said Jollies
Ill'Cray while lying sick, and I thought it was im
possible for him ever to recover. For my part, I
thought ho would die in two or three days, as he
looked like death, pale and ghastly, voice sunk so
much that he could scarcely siwak above his
breath. RIC II A RD MORROW.

They are pleasant to the taste, and can he taken

commending this invaluable remedy 'dr dyspepsia,
