TIC 9YRTIp

Ihave, for .mole than thirty years, beer
afflicted with Asthma, which was known, no
only to my friends, but also to many others
who could Judge Of the situation to which
this malady had reduced me. During the
latter part ofthe disease, | could not rest in
bed, and frequently, during the space of eight
or ten days, I could not eve lie down. Sea-
ted in an arm chaIr-my head reclining on
the side of the bed, I obtai led at Intervals
some repose! This situation becoming des-
perate, | Tried various means 70 obtain relief,
and have succeeded, after more than a years
research, in discovering a specific Syrup,
which has produced such ahappy effect upon
that at present | only experience some Sigh
opPres sion, which is Immediately relieve
by one or two doses! If at any time from
exposure, | am threatened with an attack,
| take repeated doses ofthe Syrup, and sue
coed in obtaining immediate relief.
II is not be supposed that a disease so
obstina g rs the Asthma, should yield to the
first doses of the Syrup: it is only after long
use that relief may be expected, or a perfect
cure, il taken when first attacked.
Asapectofal, this syrup is employed III
the greater part of the diseases of the breast,
suchas Bronchitls-Inlammatio of the lungs
-Pleurisy &c. DIR. Rance has employed Ia
! cases Of pulmatnory phYsic, and it has su
ceededbette than any otter remedyin reliev-
ing The oppression that always accompanies
this alarming disease. He informs me, that
in order to afford certain relief, he has been
obliged towards the end of the disease, 10 adj
minister it 10 strong doses. DR., Ran s6 con-
siders it as one of the best ~pectoral remedies.
The directions for use are attached to the
bottles.
The depot Tor the above syrup is at the
store of the undersigned, and prepared by bin
in Baton Rouge.
Price IS CTS per phial offs ounces-$7 so
