Messrs JosLIN & RowE:-At your request
herewith transmit to you statement of the of
Mrs. Winner and child, as near as am able to com
municate which you are at liberty topublish if you
see ft as feel desire 10 inform the world of the
effects of the invaluable medicine called Wistar's
Ralsam of Wild Cherry to which, by the divine
blessing am indebted for 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 ofapproachug consumption,. Dur
ing the intervals from that time TO sometime in
February last, she had been treated by eminent
Physicians from Utica, Sylvania, Homer, Chat
ham and Newark land with only partial relief of the
most urgent symptoms. About one year ago, she
caught a vioIentcold, which seated upon the Lungs
producing an alarming aggravation OF all her pre-
vious symtoms. Her Physician was sent for, aud
despite his best efforts, she began rapidly TO sink
! under her disease Cough, ExpectoratIon Hectic,
together with night sweats, soon reduced her to a
complete skeleton In February last, her attend
ing Physician, deemed her case 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, one or two
weeks at farthest. She was at this time entirely
confined to her bed, and scarcely able to articu-
late, except in whisper. Her daily paroXysns Of
coughing would last her uninteruptedly from to
hours, and so severe were they, that we did eX-
pect that every paroXysm would be the last The
physicians in council pronounced her Lungs. Lv-
er, Kidneys, Spine, and Mucus Membrane Of the
Sto mach TO be incurably diseased 1t was at this
last extremity that we happened to obtain apam-
phet describing DR.. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry. as applicable to Lung affections We i'm
mediately sent to you and procured bottle, and
commenced its 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-
trely 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
infantat the brerst was taken down. and rapidly
sinking. with the symtoms as its mother, and
seeing the happy effect Of the Balsam in the case
of the mother, we we've 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 ply
sican as well as our neighbors and acquaintances
who saw Mrs. Winner during the course Of her
sickness.
