ClF1C-FOr the cure of Colds, Coughs
 Consumptons, Splitting of Blood, Asthmas,
 and all disorders of the Breast and Lungs.
 There IS perhaps no medical observation better established none more generally con- hrmed by the experience of the best physi- clans of all ages and countries, and none of more importance to the human family, than the fact that many of the most difficult and lncurable consumptions originate in neglected colds. In climate so variable as ours, where the changes of the weather are frequently 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 disease may be C, nsidered as about five to one Inasmuch then as this fatal disease bids defiance to the skill of the most learned physicians, it is a grat'Ecation to the proprietor that he is ena- bIed to offer to those afflicted with it a good ly prospect of relief in that highly valuable remedy the Vegetable Indian Specifc.-The Indians are happy in their knowledge of med ical plants; governed wholly by eA; erience, they are certain as to their effect, and it is said by an author of great character, that true conusmption is disease never known among them.
 For the information of those afflicted with complaints of the breast and lungs the pro- prietor inserts (from among the numerous tes- timonials in his possession) the following cer- tifcate:
 Baltimore, 7th Dec. 1924.
 I, w. PRICE, of the city of Baltimore, do hereby certify and declare, that l was for long time afflicted with severe cold, accom- panied with an almost incessant cough, and pain in my breast and lungs; also splitting cf blood and purulent matter from the lungs, with night sweats and levers, and was much emaciated by the loss of appetite, rest, &c. 1 applied to several eminent physicians and passed through a course of medicine, but could obtain no relief and found myself fast vergng on to conf ned consumption. Hav- ing at length heard of the many astonishing cures affected by the Vegetable indian Specif- ic, was induced to make trial of it, and found almost immediate relief, and my rest restored. l continued it's use, improving fast, my appe- tite better, and all the symptoms of the di- sease daily diminishing, and in a few weeks | was completely cured, and have remained so for several months, and am now in better health and flesh than have been for many years. l therefore with confidence recom- mend the use of the Tegetable Indian SpeciE- iC to all who suffer under similar complaint, and as safe, pleasant and effectual remedy for consumptions, and all diseases of the breast and lungs. w. PRICE.
 The celebrated Dr. Cullen has taught us that -four first attention should be employed in watching the approach of the disease and preventing its proceeding to an incurable state '; and in persons of cOnsumptive habit, especially those born of consumptive parents. the slightest symptoms of approaching con sumption at the consumptive period of life ought carefully to be attended to-"
 The Specific is obtained by extraction from herbs, roots, flowers, plants &c when in per- lection. In consequence of happy Oombi- nation of the most valuable herbs, &c. it be- comes balsam of superior value. 1t heals the injured parts, opens the pores and com poses the disturbed nerves, after the manner of an annodyne; consequently the obstruc- ton of the chest and the lungs which consti- tute the disease, particularly need its use. It promotes expectoratiOn, which is constantly called for; and whilst it cleanses and heals it also gives strength to the tender lungs. In this manner it removes the hectic fever, improves digestion. gives strength to the nerves, repairs the appetite and improves the spirits. This specific may always be given in safety-itis mild, pleasant to the taste, and IS found par ticularly useful in hypochOndrical nervous E. hystelical diseases. Each bill of directions contains detailed account of this disease in all it's different stages, and will be accOmpani- ed with the signature of the proprietor in red ink. It is offered for sale by
