CURE OF ASTHMA
Extract of a Letter from Mr. Benjamin Mackie, a respectable

temper ilth, 18415.
To Professor HoLLowAr

Respected Friend,—Thy excellent Pills have effectually cured
me of an Asthma, which afflicted me for three years to such an
extent, that 1 was obliged to walk my room at night for air,

Besides taking the Pills, I rubbed plenty of thy-Ointment into
my chest night and morning.
(Signed) BENJAMIN MACKIE.
CURE OF TYPHUS FEVER, WHEN SUPPOSED TO BE
AT THE POINT OF DEATH.

A respectable female in the neighbourhood of Loughall, was
attacked with Typhus Fever, and lay for five days without hav-
ing tasted any description of food. She was given over by the
Surgeon, and preparations were made for her demise. Mr.
Benjamin Mackie, the Quaker, whose case is referred to above,
heard of the circumstance, and knowing the immense 1 enefit
that he himself had derived from Holloway's Pills, recom-
mended an immediate trial, and eight were given to her, and
the same number was continued night and morning for three
days, and in a very short time she was completely cured.
N.B.—From advice just received, it appears that Colonel
Dear, who is with his Regiment in India, the 21st Fusileers,
cured himself of a very bad attack of Fever by these celebrated
Pills. There is no doubt that any Fever. however Innliffrumt.

may be cured by taking, night ant► morning, copious
this fine medicine. the patient should be induced to drink
plentifully of warm linseed tea or barley water.
