KEATING'S COUGH LOZENGES.
" A SLIGHT COLD," if its first symptoms are not sr-
rested, too often lays the foundation of a variety of Pulmonary
Complaints, including Winter Cough, Asthma, and other con-
stitutional derangements. The evil consequences of these dis-
orders may be easily averted or subdued by keeping at hand a
supply of the above celebrated Lozenges, which have now stood
the test of public experience for upwards of half a century. The
testimonials to their efficacy have been voluntarily given by the
most eminent of the faculty, as well as by all classes of private
individuals. Containing neither opiates nor any injurious
anodyne, they may be safely taken by the youngest child or the
most delicate female.
