@OR ANOTHERPROOF ADDED.
The cures performed by Wistar's Bat
sam OF Wild Cherry, are really aston
ishing TO the world.
The following we have Just received
from Messrs. Joslin and Rowe, Drug
gisIs, in Newark in this State, TO whom
Il was communicated by John Winner,
Esq. a citizeu of Burlington, Licking
county, Ohio.
burlington, o. Dec. /, 194S.
Messrs. Joslin & Rowe-At your re-
guest herewith transmit to YOU a state
ment of the case Of Mrs, Winner and
chlld, as near as | am able to communi-
cate. which you are at liberty TO publish
il you see fit, as | feel a desire to inform
The world of the effects Of the invaluable
midlclne called Wistar's Balsam OF Wild
Cherry, TO which, by the Divine bless
ing, | am indebted for the restoration to
health OF my wife and child.
About Eve years ago Mrs. Winner was
attacked with a violent cough, pain in the
chest and side and symptoms Of aparoa-
ching consumption. During the interval
from that time TO some time in February
last, she had been treated by eminent
physicians from Utica, Sylvania, Homer
Chatham and Newark, and with ouly
partial relief Of The most urgent symp-
toms. About one year ago she caught a
violent cold, which seated upon the
lungs, producing an alarming aggrava-
ton of all her previous systems. Her
physician was sent for, and despite his
best efforts she began 10 sink rapidly un-
der her disease. Cough, expectorant,
and hectic, together with night swea!s
soon reduced her to a complete skeleton.
La February last her attending physi-
elan deemed her case altogether hope
less; a council was called, and after de-
liberating upon her case. nnanimously
pronounced her 10 be beyond the reach
of means, and expressed their opinion
that she could survive but a short time,
one or two weeks at farlhest. She was
at this time entirely confined TO her bed,
and scarcely able TO arlieulate, except in
a whisper. Her daily proxysms of
coughing would last uninl%erruptedly from
three TO FIVE hours, and so severe that we
expected every prOxysm would be her
laat.
The physians in council pronounced
her lungs, liver, kidneys, spine and mu-
Gus membrane of the stomach 10 be incu-
ra5ly diseased.
II was at this last extremity that we
happened 10 obtain a pamphlet describing
DR.. Wistsr's BaIsam of W I'D Cherry, as
applicable to lung affections. We iInme-
diately sent TO you and procured a bottle.
and commenced lis use at evening by
giving her one teaspoon full, and sucI,
was The surprising effect that she was a.
bic to pass a comfortable night without
experiencing any paroxysm of coughing;
and such was its ultimate effect, that, af.
ter taking five bottles, she was, contrary
10 the expectations of her physicians and
every one who saw her, entire restored
10 health, and since last summer has
done the entire work Of the family.
After the last attack Of Mrs. Winner,
our youngest child, then an infant at The
breast, was taken down and rapidly sink
ing with the same symptoms as its mo-
Their, and having seen the happy effects
in the case of the mother, we were dis
posed to make a trial Of il for the child,
and it vas attended with the same per-
feet success.
The above statement can be attesled
by our physician as well as our neigh
bors and acqusinlances, who saw Mira,
Winner during the course Of her sick.
ness. Yours truly,
JOHN WINER.
