1t was once said-"There is nothing new un-

in reference to medicine. Hundreds Of Pills,
Panaceas, ExpectOrants and Specifics of all
sorts have been Pulled into notoriety-all
lIade mainly of the same ingredients, adding
no new materials to the 'healing art But
DR.. Wistar's Balsam Of Wild Cherry furnishes
a new medical Ogent-a new principle evolved
from NATURES own Depository 1t cures Asth-
ma, Incipient COnsumptions, Liver complaint,
and oil diseases Of the Lungs when nothing
else will. An honorable member of the Ca
madam Parliament, writes that it has cured
him of Asthma Of ten years standing. A.
Williams, Attorney at Law, So William street,
New York, has been cured of the same disease
of twenty-four years standing.
Mr.. Cozens of New Jersey makes affidavit
that it cured him of a supposed Consumption
after his physicians had given him up to die
and SO with hundreds of others.

remedy.
