Messrs Crosby's-I have for 18 years been troubled
with an affection of the breast and lungs, attended with
severe cough, pain in the side, and difficulty Of
breathing and in the fall of 1926 became SO much re-
duced, that my life was despared of and receiving
no visible benefit from physician, was advised to
make trial of La Motifs Cough Drops and after taking

firm belief that the use of the above named drops,
saved my life. THOMAS JONES
