fcate of confidence in the efficacy OF the Life Pre-
server, as a cure for hoarseness and cough.
In the fall of 1910 was much exposed TO night
air, and often took cold which was attended by
hoarseness aud slight cough, without fever or much
other indspostion. In December was scarcely ev-
err free from this complaint, and during the early part
Of the next February was never without some de-
gree of hoarseness cough until despairng Of the
suiiicency of Pease's Hoarhound Candy, aud COM
mon remedies was induced To make trial OF your
Life Preserver Before the middle OF March last
the use Of your medicine seemed to be the great
cause Of relief from the hoarseDess and slight cough
which had so long annoyed me, and which all the
Usual remedies had failed to remove
