Another InpaLd restored TO Health.
[Read the following statement of facts from Mr.
Eli Bailey, highly respectable merchant OF Vien-
ma, Johnson county, Illinois,]
Messrs Phelps & Blakesley, st Louis, Mo-,
Gentlemen:-A desire to benefit the afflicted
throughout the land has alone induced me ia make
the following statement Of facts respecting one of
the most astonishing cures ever recorded: My sun
now seventeen years old, has been afflicted during
his whale life with constant cough, pain in the
side and chest, accompanied with night sweats and
hectic fever, which produced great emaciatipn
and debility: and at intervals during the night his
expectoration would become great as to endan.
ger his life from strangulation. During this time
he was attended by many physicians af the highest
repute, whose prescriptions gave but temporary
relief in fact, so alarming were the SYMPTOMS, and
so inveterate was his disease than was compel
led to believe him beyond the reach IF medica.
aid
All our neighbours who saw him, regarded him
as one who was rapidly approaching an early and
premature grave. After having thus exhausted
theyskill Of our best physicians, without obtaining
relief, was prevailed upon by the advice of
friend to make use of Wistar's Balsam OF Wild
Cherry
He commenced its use about the 30th of Decem-
ber, 1874, the first bottle of which gave astonsh-
ing relief, and begun again to indulge in the
fond hope that he might yet be restored to health
After having continued the use of it until three
ALI fha
overcome, and his shattered constitution and
emaciated form restored to sound and permanent
health, which he continues ia enjoy up to the pre-
sent time.
believe the genius, Dr. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry, to be one of the most valuable me-
dicines ever dscuvered-knowing, as do, that
the above cure was effected solely by its use,
am, gentlemen, very respectfully,
Your most obedient servant
April 8. 1916. ELI BAILEY
Go-Cures similar to the above are constantly
being performed in all parts of the country, and
we shduld indeed be destitute of all feelings of
humanity, did we not call upon all who are aflict-
ed with pulmonary diseases to resort at once to
the use of this, the only remedy that can be relied
upon for cure.

BILLS OF MORTALITY.-Ha the relative
proportion of mortality decreased as the practice
of medicine has become complicated? We think
not--the very reverse. Since the ingenuity Of
man has "sought out many devices" to substitute
for the simple preparations of nature'sown abrato.
ry, the art of the physician has been of less use to
the afflicted Our woods and forests contain all the
remedies necessary to meet successfully any form
of disease. This is strongly illustrated in the Gin
seng Panacea, which after the skill of the faculty
has been set at Defiance is daily restoring to health
hundreds of cases, who, without 1t, must have
sunk into the grave, victims to Coughs, Colds,
Bronchitis, and other affections of the Lungs.

man Of high standing in that place:
Mr.. JOSEPH I, YouNGLovE,-
Sir: As duty owe to the community,
and particularly to the afflicted, would state that
had been for number of years laboring under
disease and weakness the lungs, which caused
me to cough great deal, and produced consequent
debility Of my system generally 10 such degree,
that it was with difficulty could walk,t do which
even for short distance, l experienced great fa-
tigue. l had various medicines recommended to
me, which used without any beneficial effects
whatever, until procured bottle of Wild Cherry.
The use of one bottle afforded relief, entirely re-.
leving me of cough, and restoring my lungs to
healthy action, The use of il for short time in
creased my general health and strength to such an
extent that was stronger and more healthy than
had been for years before From the trial have
made of the medicine, I can confidently recomend
it as powerful tonc certain cure for affections
Of the lungs unless it be may in case of Consump-
ton, obstinate and long standing

WE ARE NOT IN THE HABIT OF eulo-
gizing any thing in the form of"Patent Medicine,
for we have long been Of the opinion that nothing
but aworthless nostrum needs the imposing name
of"Patent' to bring it into notice. Hence our
hostility has been strong and incorporating
against every thing in the line. But at length our
prejudices have been forced to yield to the i'm
mense amount Of Testimony in favor Of "Dr. Wis
tar's Balsam Of Wild Cherry" Judging from
what we have seen and heard of its fleets, we
pronounce II the most fortunate combination nf
medical agents ever discovered for the cure Of con-
sumption; and indeed, II appears 70 be perfectly
master Of all pulmonary complaints. We advise
the public to make an immediate aud fair trial Of
il, and they will then praise it more warmly than
We have done.
