WE ARE NOT IN THE HABIT of eulogizng
any thing in the form of ''Patent Medicine" for
we have long been of the opinion that nothing but
worthless nostrum needs the imposing name of
Patent to bring 1t into notice. Hence our hostility
has been strong and unrompromisng against eve-
ry thing in the line. But at length our preudices
have been forced to yield to the immense amount
of testimony in favor of "Dr. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry" Judging from what we have seen
and heard off its effects, we pronounce it the most
fortunate combination of medical agents ever dis
covered for the cure Of Consumption; and indeed,
it appears to be perfectly master of all pulmonary
complaints. We advise the public to make an
impartial and fair trial of it, and they will then
praise it more warmly than we have done.

Another Muaid restored TO Health.
Eli Bailey, highly respectable merchant Of Vien-
ma, Johnson county, Illinois.
Messrs Phelps s. Blakesley, st Louis, Mo-,
Gentlemen:-A desire ia benefit the afflicted
throughput the land has alone induced me Ia make
the following statement of facts respecting Of
the most astonishing cures ever recorded: My san
now seventeen years aid, 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 so great as to endan-
ger his life from strangulatian. During this tms
he was attended by many physicians of the highest
repute, whose prescriptions gave but temporary
relief in fact, so alarming were the symtoms, and
SO fnveterate was his disease, than was compel
led to believe him beyond the reach Of aedieo.
aid s "A, s.s
All our neighbours who saw him, regarded him
as one who was rapidly approaching an early and
premature grave. After having thus exhausted
thelskl of our best physicians, without obtaining
relief, was prevailed upon by the advice pf .
friend to make use of Wist1's Baisam OF TVild
Cherry.
He commenced It's use aboutthe 30th of Decem.
Der, 1874. the fEstbotte of whirlrgays sstonish-
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 il until three
bottles had peen taken, the disease was entirely
overcome, and his shattered constitution and
emacated form restored to sound and permanent
health, which he continues to enjoy up to the pre-
sent time. US .4,
believe the genius, Dr. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry, to be one of the most valuable mo-
dicines ever discovered-knowing, as do, that
the above cure was effected solely by its use.
/ am, gentlemen, very respectfully,
Your most obedient servant
