Mellen's Cough Drops.
The most ualaable Medicine ever prepared for
COUGHS d CONSUMPTIONS.
3ESElS valuable and much approved Medi-
Il 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 debili-
ty arising from violent colds, hacking coughs,
asthmas, &c. Even in confirmed consump-
ton 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
debiiitated from inHammatory affections of
the lungs, such as pleurises, &c where the
best medical aid had tailed 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 il a fair trial, has induced
few OF them Of tue highest respectabilty 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
Its own merits recommend it, the very great
demand torit, since its virtues have become
known, induce them 10 give tia more gene
raj circulation.
hereby certify that my wife has for 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 IT which a very short time she found
great relief, and her cough has entirely left
her, and she has regained her strength.
