This is to certify, that !, the Subscrib-
er, had been afflicted with the Asthma for twen-
ty years, and the paroxysms were often so vio-
lent as nearly TO deprive me of breath. During
'one of the most violent returns of the Asthma,
was advised to try Anderson's Cough Drops,
and ! did so; and, to my surprise, | was very
soon entirely relieved, and felt ne more of the
Asthma for six months. Upon a return of a
paroxysm of the Asthma, ! have made use of
the same Medicine, and it has invariably given
me relief. As it respects the Asthma, and its
attendant symptoms, difficulty of breathing,
&c. consider Anderson's Cocgh Drops REM
edy, an praise of cieh too much cannot be said.
i further certify, that my son.in-law had for
some time been supposed to be past recovery
OF Consumptive COMPLAINT, when advised
him to make trial of Anderson's Cough Drops,
and from the use ef them, he has so far recov-
cred his health as to be again able to attend to
his business. JOHN LYSCOM, Surgeon.

THIS new and healing BaIsam

THIS new and healing BaIsam
undoubtedly rivals every Medicine here
tofore discovered, for 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
success. If Certificates from persons of the
highest respectability, or the great and in
creasing demand for them, may be called proof
OF its good effects, it is proved. Scarcely
case OF Colds, Coughs, Asthma, pain in the
side, dlfaculty Of breathing, want Of sleep
arising from debility, or even Consumptions,
but may be relieved by the timely use of this
Medicine. Every genuine bo1tle has /" .4,,der-

and the directions are all sigsed by JAmRs

For the further satisfaction of the pub

Having made use of Anderson's Cough
Drops in my family, and having been request
ed to express my opinion of their efficacy in
the cure Of Coughs-I hereby certify, that a
daughter of mine was severely afflicted with a.
Cough for about year previous to the sum
mer of 1890, during which time she was more
or less attended by several Physicians; but,
appearing to obtain no relief, her life was des-
paired OF. Being informed Of the great cures
effected by Anderson's Cough Drops, | was in
duced to make use Of a bottle, and in the course
OF one week only, she was relieved Of her COM
plant After using two bottles, she entirely
recovered, and now enjoys as good health as
ever. From my own experience, therefore,
have no hesitation in recommending these
Drops to the publick

BARCLAYS BREWERY.

The directions OF this establishment, to
whom was introduced by letter from
lne of the Barclays, put me in the way OF
seeing its various, and communicated such
AS wished respecting its ex-
tent and operations. If any private con-
cern in England or in the world, is enti-
tied to the epithet of vastness, this is one
1t covers about eight acres of ground, and
last year $40, 900 barrels OF
Sc gallons each. The buildings which con-
tain the oats themselves, are numerous
The largest of the latter contains each
1000 barrels. The average number Of
vats is nearly 100. A steam engine of %
horse power, is employed in driving the
machinery, and about two hundred men
are engaged in the various works of the
establishment: while it is supposed that
the number of persons, dependent upon il
without, in the sale and transportation o
the beer, is three or four thousand. The
three coppers in which the beer is boil
ed, hold each $50 barrels.
Twenty-Five gentlemen once dinel il
one OF them, after which, fifty of the work
men got in and RECALLED themselves. One
hundred and ninety pounds OF beef steaks
were thus consumed in one day, in this
novel kind of dining room. The tunS il
which the beer ferments, hold l400 bar
lrels each. The carbonic acid in one o
them stood about three and half fee
above the liquor, poured over the side il
a continued stream. A candle is INSTANTLY
distinguished on being placed near the out

A new preacher has risen up in Grea'. Britain,
who has become nearly as famous as Dr. Chal-

lot the New Monthly Magazine gives this descrip-
ton of him.
