Il bids fair to rival every Medicine here
toiofe discovered, fos Coughs and complaints
OF the lungs, leading to Consumption, and
even IN seated Consumptions it has lately been
used by many, with the most surprising sue
cess. If Certificates from persons of the high.
est responsibility, or the great and Increasing
demand for it, may be called proof of its good
effects, ii is proved Scarcelya case of Colds,
Coughs, pain in the side, difficulty of breath
even Consumptions, but may be relieved by
the timely use of this Medicine. Many
certificates OF its efficacy accompany each

This may certify to all those whom it may
concern, that have been extremely afflicted
with distressing asthmatical affection. which
has lasted nearly foaty years, and greae part
OF the time so that could not lie in bed, nor
SIT in meeting without coughing, notwithstand-
ing had tried many good physicians and vari .
Gus medicines, till obtained phial of .Ander-
sons Cough Drops, prepared by DIR. .Meilen, of
Hudson; andby the use of them | can sleep
comfortablyin bed, and sit in meeting without
coughing. And do further certify, that
my neighbour, Benjamin Hoibrook, had laid
by labouring, on account of an affection of the
, lungs, attended with cough and he has re-
ceiyed much benefit from the same kind nj
medicine, so as to be able to labour again.
And can chesrfully recommend this medi-
