LEES ELIXIR (!

A sovereign remedy for colds, obstinate
n coughs, catarrhs, asthnas, sore throats'
and approaching consumptions. A single
trial OF this medicine will prove its ethcaclous
quality in restoring a perspiration common TO
healthy people; it dislodges and expeis the
tough vscid phlegm or mucus, Strengthening
the weakened vessels of the lungs, thus Silk
ing at the root of the disorder, the symptoms
of course are eHectually and permanently
conquered. The great number OF cures per-
formed in 1908 by this elegant and useial pre-
p~aration, is sufficient to astonish and convince
those that labor under colds, coughs,eonsumP-
tons, &c. ofbeirg Immediately relieved, with
gu saying any thing of the many thousands
benefited in former years /; however Tor the
Information ofthose persons, II any there DC
that have not heard of the balsamlc qaalties
of Lees Elixir, we give tbs names OF the to.-
lowing persons who are wellknoWn to ourci-
tizens in general as persons of known lntcsr'-
ty and strict v~eracity. From the following
certificates it will plainly appear, that a three
years consumption, a common cold or cough
are all with ease removed by Lees Elixir.
