On the contrary, however, | daily grew worse .
violent cough set in, then pain in my breast and
between my shoulders. InoW suffered great OPP
preston from the great secretion Of purulent mat
ter insmy lungs became greatly alarmed; and
my friends considered my situation extremely
critical, the more so as loss of appetite, hectic
fever, and night sweats rendered me as weak as
child, and at night the sweat literally poured of
me This was my condition when commenced
using e iThomsons Compound Syrup Of Tar and
Wood Naphtha." procured one bottle, and ex-
perienced so much benefit that resolved to con-
tinue It. II is now six months since ceased using
the medicine, and the cure remains perfect. l
firmly believe this medicine is far superior to
every other remedy for Consumption Of the Lungs.
