Splitting of Blood,

Jonathan HawOrth, Esq. the well known Tenn
perance Lecturer, was attacked with cold from
sleeping in damp sheets, in the winter of 1871. He
neglected it at first, but soon found il assuming
somewhat alarming aspect, and then resoIted to
the various remedies usually recommended for lung
complaints. When one thing failed he tried an
other, until ne had exhausted his patience and the
whole catalogue of remedies. His cough was al
most incessant, so that he could get little or no
sleep-attended with pain in his side, splitting of
blood, night sweats, and all the usual symptoms Of
Consumption. While at Rome. On y he felt that
his end was nigh--that in that place he must soon
end his journey of life. Providentially, lady
who visited him advised trial of DIR Sherman's
Cough Lozenges. He accordingly sent and got
box, and the first dose gave him more relief than
all the other medicines he used before. By the
time he had taken one small box he was able to
start for the city of New York. and in three weeks
time he was perfectly restored to his usual health.
He often announces the fact to bis hearers, when
