must convince all that Dr. LARBOR'S EN-
TRACT OF LUNGWoRT is the only med
icine in the world that will cure all who are
predlsposed to consumption, liver complaints,
or troubled with coughs, colds, asthma, pleu-
risy, splitting of blood pain in the side and
chest, difficulty of breathing, tightness across
the chest, palpitation of the heart, bronchitis,
throat complaints, and all affections of the pull
monury organs If this is not sufficient, we
will refer any one to others, who (at the date
of the above) are now using this article in n
variety of protractcd lung complaints All
the certificates shown to the public, prove
conclusivcly, one thing-that the VEGETABLE
EXTRACT OF LUNGwoRr is possessed ofcertain
powers, in healing the lungs and restoring
energy to those who supposed to be fast
sinking INTO the grave, over every other rem
edy, ancient modern.
And why not? 1t is medicine that is not

remedy that owes its existence from nature
source, certain cure for complaints of the
lungs, all the premonitory symptoms of con-
sumption Quackery, probably, would put
new life into n skeleton, provided YOU would
believe tat least the inventors of some of
the SEEMING popular remedies would induce
you to believe so, if possible. 1t is to put in
the place of such stuff a remedy of use to man
kind, that the Vegetable Extract of Lungwort
was made ....
The study of years-the proper proportion
of the mgredients-their effect upon the diff
ferent systems, and the stage of diseases in the
paticnts-all these We're in the minds eve
of the physician who formed this medicine
He knew that to make something really use
full as a remedy, study and observation were
necessary, and he failed not to devote all his
attention 10 the purpose, He has succeeded
the Vegetable Extract of Lungwort has taken
its stand, and beyond the leading medicines
of the present time, as the only true eradica-
tor ofpulmonary CONSUMPTION extant This
is true and certain-true, because susceptible
of proof certain, because its power and use
fulness, in saving hundreds from death can
not be controverted.
