RAPID CURE OF COUGH & DIFFICULTY OF BREATHING.
Hale, near Liverpool.
Sir,—l write to inform you of the great benefit I have received
from taking Locock's Wafers, which you recommended to me.
I was so much oppressed at my chest that when I lay down a
coughing fit came on with such violence that I have often thought
I should not live to see the morning; but now I can sleep a whole
night without coughing, after having taken only two boxes of
wafers. J. HAYNES.

ANOTHER CURE OF CONSUMPTIVE COUGH.
Extract of a letter from Mr. Thomas Dean, 150, Scotland-road,

Liverpool.

Gentlemen.—l have great pleisure in communicating to you
a case (among many) which came under my own observation. A
lady, who 1 can refer to, in her assidious attendance upon her
husband during a long and fatal illness, caught cold, and not
having taken care of herself, it settled upon her lungs. She
was troubled with a dreadful cough, and every symptom of
consumption. She applied to her medical man, but did not
obtain any relief; when, upon the recommendation of a friend,
she tried Dr. Locock's Wafers, which,. from the commencement,
eased her cough, and by continuing them she is perfectly cured.
( Signed) THOMAS DEA N.
ANOTHER CURE OF COUGH AND HOARSENESS.
Parliament-street, Liverpool.
Sir,—lt is with much pleasure I bear testimony to the extraor-
dinary powers of Locock's Wafers. I had been troubled with a
cough and hoarseness for nearly two years, without relief, when I
was induced to try Locock's Wafers, the effects of which were
soon visible, for one large box (2s. 9d.) has quite cured me. I
have since recommended them to several of my friends, and they
have also experienced the greatest relief from them.
I remain yours, ever grateful, J. WILLIAMS.
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 extrordinary 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.
