attended with a hoarsencss and soreness of the
lungs and throat, together with a laborious cough
and complete prostraton of strength, and when
almost worn out with suilocation, bottle of your
Expectorant was sent to my house. At first
thought it was nothing but quackery, but seeing
it so highly recommended by DIR. Going, with

it, and in a few days it completely cured me, nor

try Spohn's Headache Remedy, as sold by you
and to the great disappointment and Joy of her

every case when an attack was threatened, has
found immediate relief, until she is near perma-

failed of giving relief where it has been applied
according to directions, and all who have used it
are perfectly satisfied with it so far as | know
have also applied it in some severe cases ofague
in the breast with the happlest effects.
| would also relate the case Of Mr.. Thomas

been compelled to abandon labor, in great mea-

applied it, and for three days found, as he sup
posed, no benefit, but after that he perceived that
the pain was not so severe, and in less than two
weeks he could labor hard all day and rest free
from pain at night. He says he would not part
with the box he has for three hundred dollars,
providing he could not obtain another. He alsu
