BURLINGTON, LICKING Co., O., Dec. 1. I843
Messrs. JosLIN & RowE:-At your request
herewith transmit to you statement of the of
Mrs. Winner and child, as near as am able to
muncate, which you are at liberty to publish you
see fit, as feel desire 10 inform the world Of the
effects of the invaluable medicine called Wistar's
Balsam of Wild Cherry to which, by the divine
blessing, am indebtedfor the restoration TO health
of my wife and child.
About five years ago, Mrs. Winner was attacked
with violent cough, pain in the chest and side,
and symptoms ofapproaching consumption, Dur
ing the intervals from that time 10 sometime in
February last, she had been treated by eminent
Physicians from Utica, Syyania, Homer, Chat
ham and Newark land with only partial relief Of the
most urgent s. ymptoms. About one year ago, she
caught violent cold, which seated upon the Lungs,
producing an alarming aggravation of all her pre-
vious symtoins. Her Physician was sent for, and
despite his best efforts, she began rapidly to sink
under her disease. Cough, EXpectoraton Hectic,
together with night sweais, soon reduced her to
complete skeleton. In February last, her attend
ing Physician, deemed her altogether hopeless,
council was called, and after deliberating upon
her case unanimously pronounced her to be beyond
the reach Of means, and expressed their opinion
that she could survive but short time, or two
weeks at farhest She vas at this time entirely
confined to her bed, and scarcely able to articu-
late, except in whisper. Her daily paroxysms of
coughing would last her unrteruptedly from TO
hours, and so severe were they, that we did ex-
pect that every paroxysm would be the last The
physicianG in council pronounced her Lungs. Liv-
| er Kidneys, Spine, and Mucus Membrane of the
Sto mach to be incurabiy diseased. 1t was at this
last extremity that we happened to obtain PAM
phlet describing Dr. Wstar's Balsam of Wild
| Cherry, as applicable to Lung affections. We i'm
mediately sent to you and procured bottle, and
commenced lis use at evening by giving her one
teaspoon full, and such was the surprising effect
that she was able to pass comfortable nights rest,
| without experiencing any paroXysm OF coughing,
and such was its ultimate effect, that after taking
five bottles she was, contrary to the expectations
other physicians, and every one who saw her, en-
trey restored to health; and since last summer has
done the entire work of her family. After the last
attack of Mrs. Winner, our youngest child, then an
infant at the breast was taken down, and rapidly
sinking, with the same symtomS as Its mother, and
seeing the happy effect of the Basam in the case
of the mother, we were disposed to make trial oft
for the child, and it was attended with the same
| perfect success.
The above statement can be attested by our phy-
sican as well as our neighbors and acquaintances,
who saw Mrs. Winner during the course OF her
sickness.
Very truly, yours, sc.
JOHN WIMER.

DEAR SrR:-I owe it to the afflicted to inform
you that in January last was attacked by very
violent cold-caused by working in water, which
settled on NV lungs. 1t accompanied by a
very severe pain in my breast and side, and also
distressing cough. had in attendance all the best
medical aid in our village, and after eXhausting
their skill to no avail they pronounced my disease
a confirmed Consumption, and one and all gave
me up to die. After much persuasion ! got the
consent ofmy physician TO use Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry prepared by DR.. Wistar. purchas-
ed OF the agent in our place one bottle, before US
ing half of which, began to gain strength, and it
was very evident my cough was great deal better,
and my symptoms in every way improving /
have now used three bottles, and am restored to
health. The result is alone owing 10 the use OF
Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, and take
this method of giving you the information, partly
to pay the debt of gratitude owe you, and partly
that others similarly afflicted may know where to
apply for relief.
peSpeCuully anu Uuly yours,
JAMES SAGE.

New YoRK, January %, 1913
Ihave been afflicted with spasmodic asthma for
twenty-tour years-sometimes so severely as to be
confined to my room for weeks; and although at
tended BY various medical advisers, of the highest
reputation and skill in the country, the relief was
butpartial and temporary-twce the disease Prov
ed nearly fatal to my life.
Some few weeks ago, commenced taking Wis
tar's Balsam OF Wild Cherry, which gave me n-
stant relief, and single boNe produced in few
days what believe to be radical and perfect cure.
