nOCT. CHAPMAN'S COUGH MIX
IL TURE, for the cure of Diseases of the
Chest or Lungs, as Coughs, Colds, Inf1enzaS
AsthRlaS, CataTrhs, Hectic FeUerS, Splitting of
Blood, and other diseased distractions and ir-
ritations of the respiratory system.
The formula for this preparation of medi-
cine is by that eminent medical gentleman, N
Chapman, M. D professor of the Institutes and
practice of medicine in the University of Penn
sylvania, physician to the Hospital, and Phila-
delphia Almshouse and Infrmary.
The Cough Mixture has been in use several
years, and its success is so much greater than
any other article in the market that wedo not
hesitate to recommend it as the most efficacious
medicine forcoughs and affections ofthe lungs
generally, now in use.
1t is proper to add that the Cough Mixture
does not contain opium in any form whatever,
which is productive Of bad effects by continued
use, and too often constitutes the basis of the
popular cough preparations Of the day.
The number of does each bottle contains is
double to that of any other article offered to the
public, and rendersit far less expensive to the
purchaser than any other medicine now IN use.
