Baltimore, March nth, 1898.

Dr.. JANE,
Dear Sir:-You ask me what proofs | meet
with ofthc efficacy Of your medicine, can safe
ly say that | never prescribed a medicine for
Bowel Complaints that has given me so much
satisfaction, and my patients so speedy and per-
feet relief as this. Whenever introduced into a
family, it becomes a standing remedy for those
ailments, and is called foragain and again, which
think pretty good proof of its efficacy and
usefulness. In the Summer Complaint Of chill
dren it has frequently appeared to snatch the lit
tie victims, as it were, from the grave. 1T sa-
we'd the life of my child, and of such and such
child" have repeatedly heard said. In dysens
sric affections of adults, | have time and again
cen it act like a charm, and give permanent re-
lief in few hours, | may say in a few minutes.
In fine, it is a valuable medicine, and no family
should be without it. Respectfully,
NJ. l.. KNAPP, NJ. D.

Coughs & Colds.

THE CAUSE OF CONSUMPTION.-S
pie as these complaints are usually considered
no one can deny their being the most common
ease of this fatal and distressing disease. 1t is
euindd a melancholy truth, that thousands fall
er cause than NEGLECTED COLDS. Yet we
ind hundreds, nay thousands who treat such
complaints with the greatest indifference, aud
let them run on for weeks and even months
without thinking Of the danger. At first yon
have what you may consider a slight COUGH
or COLD; you allow business, pleasure or care
lessness to prevent you from giving it any atten-
ton; it then settles upon your breast, you be-
come hoarsc, have pains in the side or chest, ex-
pectorate large quantities of matter, perhaps
mixed with blood, difficulty of breathing en-
sues, and then you find your own foolish ne
gleet has brought on this distressing complaint
lFthen you value life or health be warned in
time, and don't trife with your COLD, or trust
to any quack nosiTtm to cure you, bat mmedi-
atcy procure a bottle or two ofthat famous rem
edy, the "BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, :"
which is well known to be the most speedy cnre
ever known, as thousands will testify whose lives
have been saved by it.

valuable compound.
For many years, whilst engaged in the prac-
tice ofmy profession have frequently observed
much injury done from the improper admins
trahon of medicine, with II view to cxpel worms
from the human system; and that at a Time when
the little sufferer was very unable to bear such
harsh treatment; giving drastic, and quite too ac'
tive purgatives, worm teas, sc. SC. which oft
times will produce great suffering, and lay the
foundation for a disease which would be much
more difficult 10 eradicate than that produced by
Worms.
1t is much to be regretted, that thousands are
swept off, or rendered weak, pale, and emaca-
ted, in their early stages of existence, and their
constitutions undermined, and foundation laid
for pulmonary diseases, &c. &c. entirely from inn
proper treatment Worms being especially liza
BILE to inhabit persons of debiltated digestive or
gans: and those of weak constitution, therefor
much mschiefis often done by the ordinary mode
of trcating,-which generally consists of the
| most active purgatives; and further, it has been
proved by actual experiment. that Worms will
! exist for long time, even when they are thrown
| into solution of most of the common prepare
| iions which arc used for the destruction of those
animals; whereas, it has been fully proven that
in the preparation which offer to the public,
called "Dr. Swayne's Vermituge,n they cannot
cAist LOT any lengln OF tlme,-Dut SlcKen, uWl1l-
die and die, and pass off from the body with the
stools and other offensive matter necessary to be
| discharged giving new and healthy action to
the whole Alimcntary Canal, and all without the
least Inconvenience to the sufferer.
Worms are capable of producing great dstur-
bance in the system; not only do they aggravate
all ordinary diseases, but they also give rise to
great variety Of very alarming and anomalous
affections. Indeed, the whole train ofspasmodc
| and conclusive diseases, may proceed from the
irritation of Worms in the Aim entary Canal.
Cholera, Epilepsy, Catclcpsy, Tctanus, Paralysis,
Mania, and Commissions, well as a variety of
Nervous Affections, arc not unirequcntly the eff
feet of this cause.

MOTHER S, BE ON YOUR GUARD,
This is the season when this destructive com
plant attacks your interesting little children, OF
ten robs you of those you fondly doat on, anc
carries hundreds to the grave. Every mother
should, therefore, knowts symptoms, watch
them closely, and always be prepared with rem
edy to cure it, many are daily sacrificed by
such neglect. At first the little patient is seized
with shivering, it grows restless, has flushes of
heat, the eyes become red and swollen, it breathes
with difficulty, and then comes that fearful
COUGH that will surely terminate in convul-
sions or death unless something is Immediately
given to check it. In this complaint the "BAL-
SAM OF WILD CHERRY" is well known to
be the most speedy cure ever discovered. 1t is
indeed a precious remedy mild, safe and inno-
cent, and sure to give the little sufferer immcdi-
ate relief, and quickly restore it to safety and
health. Every mother who loves her children
should always keep it in the house and give it 10
them early; by doing so you may often save orl
life of one you fondly love. Remember this is
the famous remedy Of that distinguished physi-
clan, DIR. Wistar, which has cured thousands of
GROUP. WHOOPlNG COUGH, ASTHMA,
CONSUMPTION, &C., after every other mcdi-
cc hadled.

CAUTION,

Is AL medicines which become verv popular
Ike that of DR. Swayne's Compound Syrup of
Wild Cherry attempts to Initiate or Counter
eitin some way, are very frequently resorted to
Therefore il is thought best to put the public on
only two or three years after this most deserved
" popular remedy had introduced itself into the
sick chamber, and its fame become widely known
up springs several others into the market, and
with view to rive currency to their new lnyen-
tons, they take the name of Wild Cherry to add
to their patched up nostrnms, thinking to Dor
row reputation from that already established;
and to fclp out still further with the scheme of
deception, by one of the vendors the name of DR..
Wistar is attached, making it appear that this po
pular and highly respected Physician was the au-
thor ofthIs preparation: such is not the fact
Another individual comes out with what he calls
the Syrup of Wild Cherry, clinging still closer to
the original name, that individuals might even be
deceived, when they went to purchase, ifthe name
OF DR. SwAYNE was not always kept in view.
Those whoapply for these latter day preparations
otNlld Cherry, let me tell them are tampering
with their constitutions, and taking draughts
from the hands of iuexperience, which they
would have to repent, on some future day hadI
not put them on their guard. DR.. Swayne's
Compound Syrup Of wild Cherry is put in square
bottles, containing about eight ounces, with CDR.
