OBSTINATE COUGHS,

Colds, .dsthmds, &c. are Immediately rchercd and
speedily cured by the use Of HamiRons Ekirir.
Dear bought experience has taught thousands
that oily and heating medicines, joined with
strong opiates or sleepy drugs, repeated doses of
which fattcr and deceive the patient for the pre-
sent, by procuring momentary ease ; experience,
say, has taught thousands, that the common
opiates and balsamics, as they are called, finally
aggravatc every disorder of the breast and lungs,
in their most distressing symptoms that they
load the stomach and impair the digestion, in
fame the whole system, increase the difficulty of
breathing and excite fever. But the qualities of
shis valuable discovery, are evinced by perfectly
opposite effects. A single trial will prove, that
it restores the determination of the fluids to the
surface f the body, and brings on the ce...,sn
healthf perspiraton, that IT aislodges and eva
cuates the tough viscid phlegm or mucus,
streng hens the weakened vessels OF the lungs,
sheatT es the acrimonious humor which rritatss
.hem and finally discharges it. Thus striking
at the root of the disorder, The symptoms are OF
course eAectually and permanently conquered,
the reverse of common medicines which weaken
the constitution and gives strength to the dsor-
der for the sake of nloderating for the present
some OF the painful effects.
To Parents who have children afflicted with
the hopping cough, this discovery is of the first
magnitude, as il affords immediate relief, checks
she grogress, and in a short time entirely remeve
ylle most cruel disorder to which children are
liable. The Elixir is so perfectly agreeable, and
she dose SO small that no difficulty arises in ia
king it.

severe cold caught several months ago. tie

often thrown into weakening sweats when nc
attempted to wnlk any distance, and his voice
would frequently fail in such degree that he
could only attempt to whisper. He has been
upwards Of six weeks without a return OF his
complaints and desires to give his public testi'

Being dcsrous to make public for the good Of
Others the excellent quality of Hanton's Elixir
prepared by the late Mr.. Lee, have sent you
the following account of the benefit have re-
ceivcd from ii which hope will induce Others
to give it a trial. In consequence ct b1use ON
the breast received from fall, my health grew
bad, my breathing became very d!thcult, and
frequently have had suddenly to rise up IN my
bed with all the horrors ofimnlsdiate suf3ocation.
Add to these, constant pain IN my pTeast and
a cough, great loss of strength and flesh, and
you may conceive that my symptoms evidently
indicated an approaching consumption. Ihs
advice of most eminent physician was resorted
to, end afterwards second was called in, but
without giving me any relief. Anotlf, phys
clan, who knew me and the circumstances OF my
case, advised me to give HamiItoo's Elixir trl-
al, saying, he had used it in his practice, and al
ways found it do much good. A bottle wa:
procured from Mr.. B;rch's. and found relic
before had taken half oft. continued to use il
and was soon strong enough to attend to my bu
slncss. On taking cold, some OF my former
symptoms return, but always removed by
qase or two of the Elixir
