WAsalsoros, March q, loii.
DEAR SIR Upon your renewed request, cannot
with Justice any longer withhold from you my oer-
fcute of confidence in the efficacy of the Lille IRE
server as a cure for hoarseness and cough.
In the fall of 1910 was much exposed 10 night
air. aud often took cold which was attended oy
hoarseness aud slight cough without fever or much
other indsposilion. In December | was scarcely eV-
CIR free from this complaint, and during the early part
of the next February | was never without some de-
gree of hoarseness cough until despalrng oil The
suhiciency 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 10 be the great
cause of relief from the hoarseness and slight cough
which had so long annoyed me, and which all The
Usual remedies had failed to remove.
II any be led 10 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,
