facts.
For several years have been much afflicted with
the Asthma and for weeks together have not been a.
bic to lie down in my bed seeing the above Medi-
cine advertised for sale at Mr. TAPPAN's bookstore:
determined to make trial Of it, though l have al
ways been much prejudiced against Patent Medicines
in general and confess had very little faith in this,
but to my great surprise and joy, soon after taking
the first dose, found myself much relieved as TO
sleep quietly in bed and have since, when in
the least troubled with the Asthma, found inmedi-
ate relief by its use.
do not hesitate, with confidence, to recommend
the Vegetable Detergent to all in the least afflicted
with the Asthma, and have no doubt but they will
receive great relief by the use of this invaluable
medicine. WIN. WALKER.
