I, Thomas Carter, Egremont, Cheshire, had an asthmatic cough for fourteen years; nothing ever gave me relief until 1 commenced taking Dr. Locock's Pulmonic Wafers, three boxes of which have entirely cured me. (Signed) . THOMAS CARTER. Witness-31r. Geo. Howell, Chemist, Dale-st., Liverpool. CURE OF 29 YEARS' ASTHMATIC COUGH. - - - Middleton, near Manchester. SI R,—l am now 44 years of age, and I have been afflicted with an asthmatic cough since I was a boy of fifteen years of age; during that time I have resorted to every means in my power to remove it, but in vain, until last Sunday, when I sent for a small box of Dr. Locock's Wafers. I have taken two boxes since, and from the effects they have had upon me, I feel no doubt of a speedy recovery. G. STRINGER. Witness—M. Lynch, Chemist, Market-street. RAPID CURE OF ASTHMA OF 14 YEARS' STANDING. From Mr. J. E. Bignell, Ilollyhead Road, Wednesbury, and ad dressed to Mr. Ladbury, there. SlR,—When I had the first box of Dr. Locock's Wafers from you. I was labouring under one of those attacks of asthma to which I have been subject now for about 14 years. I have had the best medical advice the neighbourhood could afford, including two physicians at Birmingham, and one at Wolverhampton, but with no success. My breathing was so very difficult that I ex pected every inspiration to be my last ; as for sleep, that was im possible, and had been so for several weeks. The first dose (only two small wafers) gave me great relief—the second more so—in short, the first box laid the groundwork for the cure, which only four boxes have effected, and I am now quite well. (Signed) J. E. BIGNELL. IMPORTANT TO ALL WHO SING. From Mr. Edward Page, Director of the Choir and Organist of St. Peter's Catholic Church, Leamington. Gentlemen, —Having frequently suffered much from relaxation of the throat, I have often been obliged to resort to various pre. parations ' • but since I have had the good fortune to try Dr. , Locock's Pulmonic Wafers, I am now but seldom obliged to re. sort to them, for the extraordinary good effects they have produced are most surprising. Even when the throat appears to be com pletely exhausted, and the voice to be nearly gone, two or three (at most four) will, in the short space of half an hour or so, com pletely restore its flexibility and power, and they do not act as a mere temporary exciting remedy, nor do they leave any lassitude after. Having felt the great value of the remedy, I feel it a duty to generally recommend it, as I am convinced that all persons will find immense benefit from the general and persevering use of it. EDWARD PAGE, To SINGERS and PUBLIC SPEAKERS they are invaluable, as in a few hours they remove all hoarseness, and increase the power and flexibility of the voice. 'They have a pleasant taste. Price Is. lid., 2s, 9d., and its. per box. Sold by all Medicine Vendors. NOTE.—FuII directions are given with every box in the English, German, and french Languages. DR.
