Mr.. Seth w. Fowle.

Mr.. Seth w. Fowle
Dear SRI hereby certify that one year ago
last June, was violently attacked with cold
and cough, with lame side and stomach, and
was not free from cough during that summer
In December following my cough increased to
an alarming extent, SO that during that winter
lost about thirty.fve pounds of flesh, and phySi-
cans with whom advised could give me nc
relief II was thought by all that should never
recover. AS my good fortune would have it, in
March following, after suffering exceedingly
through the winter, heard of the beneficial eff
iccts of Wisar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, by
way of friend who has received The great
est benefit by the use OF the article. and was
inclined by him to make trial of it myself,
and no words can express my obligations TO that
friend for thus recommending this article to me,
and at the critical moment he did, for had not
aiken up one bottle before was completely cured
and from that day to this have not been troubled
with cough. can cheerfuly recommend it
to all as being remedy of great value, hoping
others may be induced to use it, and thus become
convinced OF its merits, and perhaps saved from
the fatal grasp of consumption.
