Dsar SRI feel it due to you as the inventor
of the medicine and to the public, who may be
greatly benefited by It, to state a cure that was
performed in my family, by the use Of your Car
ininative Balsam.
My little son, when about two months old, was
seized with Gotcei complaint, caused as sup
pose, by a change OF diet. 1t continued for two
weeks without intermission, and notwithstanding
the remedies prescribed by respectable physician,
we gave up the child victim, as we supposed, to
a fatal disease, but | providentially heard of
-Jayne's Carminatlye,' as an eflectual cure for
bowel complaint, and Immediately despatched a
messenger to a town seventeen miles off for bot
tie. BY the use of this medicine, in less than
thirty six hours the disease was checked; and by
its continued use for q few days the child was
restored 10 perfect health Shortly after this,
there occurred similar case in one of the fam-
lies Of my congregation; prescribed "Jaync's
Carnnatiye,' and the result was speedy cuIc.
From a knowledge Of the efficacy of your nedi-
cine in bowel complaints, a disease to which
children are constantly liable, have obtained and
keep constantly in the house, a quantity of the
"Carminatiyc."
The same child, owing to exposure, when rec
emily coming up tn, Ohio, was attacked by the
horrible malady, GROUP. We landed in the
night at Beaver Point, and when our fears were
alarmed les. the hoarse sepulchral cough was the
torcrunucr of death, we gave him a teaspoon full
of the "ErpectorGnt," "a bottle of which you pre-
scented me with when in Philadephia) and applied
some lncamcnt to the throat and breast, and be-
fore many minutes the hoarseness was gone, the
child brcathed freely and slept sweetly. Owing
to these circumstances it cannot be wondered at
why | have so high an opinion of Dr. Jaynes
and why advise every family to keep
it on hand ready for any emergency.
Respectfully yours,

Chemical Plaster, which | have received from
you at different times and feel myself in duty
bound TO you propricors, and to the public

eilicacious remedy for those complaints for which
it is recommended. Ihave used it in several cases
of niamed eyes, in some of which its effects as a
curative have been decided, and in no case has it
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 olaguc
in the breast with the happiest effects.
| would also relate the case of Mr.. Thomas
Logan, who has been afflicted with the rheuma-
tism in one hip for thirteen years, so that he had
been compelled to abandon labor, in a great mea-
sure. | let him have box of the Plaster, he
applied it, aud 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. lie says he would not part
with the box he has for three hundred dollars
providing he could not obtain another He also
says to me- keep it on hand aud recommend it
wherever you go.

your INDIAN EAPEClORANT has effected
cure in me of most distressing complaint. In
December last, | was seized with great severity
by Paroxysm of Asthma; a disease with which
had been afflicted for many years past. 1t was
attended with hoarseness and soreness of the
lungs and throat, together with lahorious cough
and complete prostfation OF strength, and when
almost worn out with suiioca,ion, bottle of your
Expectorant was sent to my house. at first |
thought it was nothing hut quackcry, but seeing
it so highly recommended by DR.. Going, with
whom was well acquainted, was induced to try
it, and in a few days it completely cured ne, nor
have | ever had any return of the disease since.
have now formed so hi5h an opinion Of your

could obtain no more would not part with them
for Ten dollars eoch.
