with profuse night-sweat, hacking cough, oppres-
sion in the breast, splitting blood with great general
debility. My constitution seemed broken down,
and nervous system very much impaired, with all
the symptoms of confirmed consumption. | went
to Philadelphia, and was treated there by physi.
clans of the highest responsibility, but still grew
worse, until they gave me up as incurable, and adj
vised me to go South; but being very poor, after
losing much time from my work, and having
spent all my money on various "pa,ent medicines"
which were recommended so highly through the
medium of-the press, was unable to take their adj
vice. Being member Of the order of Odd Fellows
they supplied me with money gratuitously to send
me to my friends in Saco, Maine. ! treated

ceived no benefit whatever from them, but grad
ualy grew worse until my physicians and my
self gave up all hopes of my ever recovering; and
| felt like one who is about to pass through the
valley of the shadow of death. At this sawful
juncture,"l heard Of your compound Syrup Of
Wild Cherry" and knowing you to be a regular
practising physician in Philadelphia, gave me more
confidence in the medicine so | concluded, a last
resort, to make trial of It, sent to your agent In
Boston, and purchased one bottle, which relieved
me very much. then procured two bottles more,

sautary effects in my own case, that DIR. Swayne's
Compound Syrup Of Wild Cherry will cure any
case of diseased lungs, if taken according to the
prescribed rules contained in the pamphlets accom-

know where TO procure a remedy at first which will
reach their disease before tampering with and ruin
ing their constitutions with the many ''quack nos
trums' with which the whole country is flooded,
prepared by persons who have no knowledge of the
