MeIlen's Cough Drops.

uACi1Cn OOtlSiI 1JAUPS.
The most uatGa6le Medicine eDer prepared for
COUGHS q CONSUMP1lONS.
yESHlS valuable and much approved Medi-
4 cine needs only fair trial to recon-
mend itself to those who are afflicted, with
obstinate coughs or complaints OF the lungs
leading to consumption, such as difficulty OF
breathing, pain in the side and great debill-
ty arising from violent colds, hacking coughs,
asthmas, &C.. Even in confirmed consump-
tion where cures could not be expected, this
composition has had the most happy effects.
This healing Balsam has also lately been u
sed with the greatest success by many IN the
most distressing condition, who had become
debilitated from inhammatory affections OF
the lungs, such as pieurisies, &c. where the
best medical aid had failed to give any re-
lief, and even where they were considered
entirely past recovery. The great esteem
in which this composition is held by those
that have given l. fair trial, has induced
few OF them OF the highest respectability vol
unfairly for the good of those afflicted in the
same way, to give certificates showing the
extraordinary relief they had received from
the use OF it, many more certificates might
be added, but the proprietors choose to let
It's own merits recommend It, the very great
demand tor it, since its virtues have become
known, induce them 10 give tia more gene
raj circulation.
l hereby certify that my wife has tor some
time past been troubled with violent cough,
and has been in delicate health some time,
and after having tried many different things
without getting relief, bought for her bot
tie of DR.. Mellen's Cough Drops, from the
use OF which very short time she found
great relief, and her cough has entirely left
her, and she has regained her strength.
