BUTLER'S PECTORAL*.ELIXIII.—ExI>e.
rience during a very loni period has incontestibly proved the
superior efficacy of this Medicine, in all cases of Canna, Coma us,
and AVIIIMATIC ArrmYrioNs. By promoting gentle ex-pectoris-
. tion, it very shortly relieves the Patient of a slight or recent Cold,
and a few doses are generally sufficient to remove those which
neglect lias rendered more confirmed and obstinate, and which are
neconipsuied with Cough, Spitting of Blood, and other serious
symptoms. Its peculiar balsamic powers tend to heal soreness,
and allay the irritation of the lungs, iu cases of Cough ; and in
Arithmetic Affections it assists and gil,es freedom to the Breath.
