Dean SIN Upon your renewed request, cahhot'
with Justice any longer withhold from you my certi-
feate Of confidence in the efficacy OF The Life fre-
server as a cure for hoarseness aud cough
In the fall Of 1910 was much exposed TO nsh'
air and often took cold, which was attended by
hoarseness and slight cough, without fever or much
other ndisposition. In December was scarcely ev-
er free from this complaint and during the early part
of The next February was never without some de-
gree of hoarseness or cough until, despairing oil the
suficiency Of Pease's Hoarhound Candy, and com
mon remedies was induced To make trial OF your
Life Preseryer. Before the middle OF March last,
the use of your medicine seemed TO be the great
cause Of relief from the hoarseness and slight cough
which had so long annoyed me, and which all inc
usual remedies had failed to remove.
II any one be led TO make the experiment, as
did so happily, of the offered good, he Will at least
find in il as pleasant and harmless physic as can be
administered in the mode prescribed by you.
am, very respectfully yours,
Mr. RICHARD THoMPsos.

woful condition of an unfortunate gentleman on
