FOR THE CURE OF


Colds, Coughs, Consumpfions, Splitting Of Blood,
.asthmas, and all Diseases Of the Breast and
Lungs.
V1NHERE is perhaps no medical observation
i better established, none more generally
confirmed by the experience of the best physI,
cians of all ages and countries, and none OF
more importance to the human family, than
the fact that many of the most difficult and
incurable consamptions originate in neglect
ed colds In climate so variable as ours,
where the changes of the weather are fire.
quently sudden and unexpected, it requires
more care and attention to guard against this
dangerous enemy of life, than most people
imagine, or are able and willing to bestow,-
The bills of mortality exhibit the melancholy
fact that the proportion of deaths by this dis
ease may be considered as about five to one.
Inasmuch then as this fatal disease bids def
ance to the skill ofthe most learned physicians,
it is a qualification to the proprietor that he is
enabled to offer to those afflicted with It
goodly prospect of relief, in that highly valu-
able remedy the vegetable Indian Specific.
The Indians are happy in their knowledge OF
medical plants; governed wholly by experl-
ence, they are certain as to their effect, and It
is sail by an author Of great character, that a
true consumption is disease never known a.
mongst them.
For the information of those afflicted with
complaints of the breast and lungs, the pro-
pretor inserts (from among the numerous
testimonials in his posscssioD the following

all the symptoms oft the disease daily diminish

similar complaint, and as safe, pleasant and

The celebrated DR.. Cullen has taught us
that "our first attention should be employed
in watching the approach of the disease and
preventing its proceeding to an incurable
State; and in persons of a consumptive habit,
especially those born of consumptive parents,
the slightest symptoms ofan approaching con-
sumption at the consumptive period OF ilfe'
ought carefully to be attended to.
This Specific is obtained by extraction from
herbs, roots, flowers, plants, &c. when IN per-
lection. In consequence Of happy combina-
ton of the most valuable herbs, &c. IT becomes
balsam of superior value. ltheals the muir
ed parts, opens the pores and composes the
disturbed nerves after the manner ct an ano-
dyne; consequently the obstruction OF the
chest and the lungs which constitute this dis
ease, particularly need its use. 1t promotes
expectoration, which is constantly called tor;
and whilst it cleanses and heals, it also gives
strength to the tender lungs. In this manner
il removes the hectic fever, improves diges-
ton. gives strength to the nerves, repairs the
annette and improves the spirits. This spe-
