READ THE FOLLOWING :
Prom Mr. P. Roberts, Chemist, Ranelagh-street, Liverpool.
" January 2d, 1845.
" GENTLEMEN ,—I send you two cases of cures which I have
received since my last, and I think it would be doing good to
advertise the Wafers in Liverpool, as they give very great satis-
faction to all who take them.—Yours, &c., "P. ROBERTS."
RAPID CURE OF COUGH & DIFFICUL BREATHING
" To Mr. P. Roberts, R agh-street.
" Hale, near Live 01, December 10th, 1844.
" SIRS I write to inform yo the great benefit I have re-
ceived from taking Locock' afers, which you recommended
to me. I was so much o essed at my chest that, when I lay
down, a coughing fit aon with such violence that I have
often thought I sho not live to see the morning; but now I
can sleep a whole ght without coughing, after taking only two
boxes of Wafers (Signed) " J. HAYES..
ANOTHER CURE OF COUGH AND HOARSENESS.
" To Mr. P. Roberts, Ranelaqh-street.
" Parliament-street, Liverpool, Jan.l st, 1845.
" Sin,—It is with much pleasure I bear testimony to the ex-
traordinary powers of Locock's Pulmonic Wafers. I had been
troubled with a cough and hoarseness for nearly two. years,
without relief, when, by your recommendation, 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. 1 have since
recommended them to several of my friends, and they have also
experienced the greatest relief from them.—l remain, yours,
ever grateful, " JOHN WILLIAMS."
