From Mr. J. SMITH, Glasgow.

" GENTLIIIIEN,—I have been troubled for years with a dreadful
palpitation of the heart, accompanied with great nervousness and
debility, for which I have tried everything you could mention, all
to no purpose, till I heard of PARR's wonderfnl LIFE PILLS,
and a friend of mine desired met) try them, which I did. I bought
them of Mr. Nelson, and lam happy to say that a box of them has
completely restored me.
"If this will do anything to help your efforts you can make
use of it. " I remain yours, respectfully,
"JAMES SMITH."
From Mr. HENRY B kRBER, Druggist, Knutsford.
" To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills.

" GENTLEMEN,—I forward you a case below, which Mr. T. CASH
wishes to have published ; he speaks wonderfully of PARR'S
PILLS, and feels assured they have been the means of saving his
life. We have also additional testimonials from respectable farmers
in this neighbourhood.
" Dean Sra,—l have been for the last two years dreadfully
afflicted with a cough and pain in the chest, so that I could scarcely
eat the least portion of food without causing great pain in my.
chest, and shortness of breath, with a violent cough, not being able
to lie down for nine months; having had the advice of several
medical men, without deriving any benefit, I 'was advised by a
friend to try PARR'S PILLS, but having tried so many patent
medicines, I thought I might as well throw my money away. I
began to think nothing would cure me ; I was fast wasting away
with a violent pain in my head; at last my friend got me a box
from your shop, and advised me to try them, so I tried them, being
so strongly recommended, according to the direction, and before I
had taken one box, I found so much relief that I tried another,
and am now happy to say I am as well as ever I was in my life, and
shall always have a few doses by me, for they are wonderful.
(Signed) " THOMAS CASH.

' e Wit nCE s—John Thorpe."
" Mr. PARRY has been afflicted with sore eyes for twelve
years, and has tried everything he could hear of without the least
oenefit, but since taking two boxes of PARR'S PILLS, his eyes
are quite well, and have been for some time.
" Mrs. SMITH has been troubled with a pain in her head for
many years, has had the most respectable medical advice, without
receiving any benefit ; is quite recovered since she has taken three
boxes of PARR'S PILLS, which are worth a sovereign a box t•
persons troubled with a sick head-ache; I shall always have a
supply by me.
" These cases I have selected from a number of others, and can
rely upon them as being correct. I shall feel great pleasure in
giving every information to any person who may favour me with
acall. " I am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,
" Knutsford, June 30, 1842." " HENRY BARBER, Druggist."

From Mr. J. L. L. WOODWARD, Chemist, Bridgewater.

" GENTLEMEN If the enclosed letter is of service, you are at
full liberty to publish it, the man seems rather to wish for the
publication of his case.

" I am, Gentlemen, yours obediently,

"J. L. WOODWARD, Chemist,
"Te the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills.

" GENTLEMEN,—The benefit I have received by the use of OLD
PARR'S PILLS, induces me, out of gratitude to the Proprietors,
and a wish to be of use to the whole world, to add another testi-
monial to the numbers you have already received. For the last
two years I have been labouring under a complication of disorders
in my head and stomach. I think I may venture to say I have not
had an hour's cessation of pain during the time. My sense of
smelling was entirely gone, and the most agreeable perfume or the
most intolerant stench were equally indifferent to me. I have had
the advice of several surgeons and: medical men, both in this
town and others, but without the least benefit, and I
had dispaired of ever again regaining my health, in
fact my life was becoming burdensome to me, until
I fortunately heard of the many cures which your valuable Pills
had effected. I purchased a box of Mr. Woodward, druggist, and
before I had taken the whole I was completely cured, and have
never experienced the slightest symptoms of its return. I have
recommended them, and shall do so, as I feel I cannot do sufficient
for the benefit I have received.—l am, Gentlemen, your obliged

" ITENRY NASI4.

and grateiul servant,
"Bridgewater, June 13, 1842."
From Mr. GEORGE WILLIAMS, Stourpert.
" To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills.
" GENTLEMEN,—When I was appointed your agent for the sale
of PARR'S PILLS, I did not anticipate a large sale for them,
there being so many kinds of Pills already before the public; but
I am happy to inform you that I have sold nearly 1,000 boxes, and
require a fresh supply. Numerous are the cases of relief being
afforded in rheumatic, asthmatic, and liver complaints, sick head-
ache, coughs, colds, and diseases of the stomach and digestive
organs, by taking these pills. Medicine which produces so much
good to the human frame, and helps to prolong life, should be uni-
versally recommended. Send me one gross by the earliest con-
veyance.—l am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,

" GEORGE WILLIAMS.

" Sleaford, June Ist, 1842.

"To Messrs. T. Roberta and Co.

"GENTLEMEN,—I beg to announce to yeu (and it is a duty I
owe the public), that the demand for PARR'S LIFE PILLS con-
tinues to increase daily, and why P let the following case amongst
many others testify :—JOHN GREEN of this place has fur many
years been afflicted with an asthma of the most painful kind, for
which he has had the advice of as many medical men as there are
pills in one of your boxes, but, after taking, at stated periods, only
three boxes of PARR'S PILLS, he declared to me this morning,
that now he could sleep from nine o'clock at night till seven in the
morning, although for the last two years he had never laid down in
bed, but was obliged to be propped up with pillows to enable him to
breathe at all.—l am, Gentlemen, your's respectfully,
" S. SMEDLEY, Bookseller, &c."

" Congleton, Jyly 12th, 1842.

"GENTLEMEN,-At the request of Mrs. Ellen Frost, of this
place ,I beg to hand you the accompanying testimonial for publication
" I believe she has received infinite benefit from taking PARR'S
LIFE PILLS, and is anxious that others suffering from similar
disease should be induced to avail themselves of the same means of
recovery."—l am, your most obedient servant,

"THOMAS GOODE.

`To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills.

" GENTLOMEN-1 beg to tender my warmest thanks for the great
benefit I have derived from your invaluable medicine. I had
for nearly two years been in a state of consumption, and was under
the care of several eminent medical men, but could obtain no re-
lief. After taking three small boxes of your celebrated pills, lam
happy to say I am completely restored to Leah!), and am now fol-
lowing my usetal employment. I beg you will make this acknow-
ledgment public for the benefit of others similarly afflicted. I shal
be happy to answer" inquiries, either made personally or by letter
(post paid).—l am, Gentlemen, yours respectfully,

THE ONLY GENUINE PECTORAL
BALSAM OF HONEY, for Coughs, Colds, Asthrnas,
&c. Invented by Sir JOHN HILL, M.D.
Sir John Dill, who was a very eminent Physician, recommended
this excellent preparation as the most salutary and eflbctual remedy
for all disorders of the Breast and Lungs : and many years' experience
has confirmed the recommendation in the immediate relief and gra-
dual cure of Coughs, Colds, Asthinas, and Consumptions. It is the
greatest preserver of the Lungs ever discovered, and contains all the
healing, softening, and soothing qualities of that salubrious extract of
FLOWERS, called HONEY. Professional Gentlemen do not hesi-
tate to recommend it, as it never disagrees with the Stomich, and
common Colds, in most casos, yield to its beneficial effects in a few
hours. It is necessary, therefore, to notice, that the genuine prepa-
ration will have engraved on the Government Stamp, " Edwards, 67,
