Colds, Asthma, Pain in the side, Brouchtis,
Whooping Cough and all Pulmonary Affections.
1t is unnecessary TO describe the properties of
the ingredients of medicine SO well known
not only by medical men, but to the most COM
mon persons. The celebrated DR.. Buchan of
England, has employed them successfully for
years. DIR Crichton eminent Physician of
Petersburgh, highly recommends treatment
in which they are principally employed. They
are the remedies employed by the celebrated
DR. Cooper, who during IL years extensive prac-
tice in Consumption and Pulmonary diseases did
not lose one single patient, as may be seen by
reference to statement TO that effect publ Ished
by him short time since If the simple articles
in their crude state are SO powerful and effica-
cious, how much more valuable must they not
be when chemically concentrated and combined.
We might go on and refer to hundreds OF the
first physicians and quote numerous authors, on
this subject, but deem il superhuons, in speak
ing of medicine SO we'll known, and so gen.
orally admitted to be without ar equal in the
cure of the above diseases. But we will attach
