cured and will cure, the mosi desperate of cases.
It is no quack nostrum, but standard English
medicine, of known and established efficacy.
Every family in the United States should be sup
piled with Buchan's Hungarian Balsam Of Life, no,
only TO counteract the consumptve tendencies OF
the climate, but to be used as preventive medicine
in all cases Of Colds, Coughs, Splitting of Blood
