UiSt0r'S BdiSGm Of HHd CHERRY, the great
rCmcdy far Consumption, and the best medi cine
known to man for asthma of every stage, liver
complaint, bronchitis, influenza, coughs, colds,
bleeding of the lungs, shortness of breath pains
and weakness in the side breast, sc. and all
other diseases of the pulmonary organs. A
very important disease over which this balsam
cxcrts a very powerful influence, is that of a
diseased Hcer. In this complaint it has I'M
doubtcdly proved more etiicacious than any
remedy hitherto employed, and in numerous
instances when patients had endured long
and severe suffering from the disease, with
out receiving the least benefit from various
emedes, and when mercury has been resorted
to in vain, the use of this Balsam has restored
the Hrer to Il healthy action, and in many in
stances effected permanent cures, after every
known remedy had failed to produce this de.
sired effect
Besides its astonishing efficacy in the dis
ease above mentioned, we also find it very
eilectual remedy in asthma, n complaint in
which it has been extensively used with de-
cded success, even i'll cases of years standing.
1t not only eliminates from regular physi-
clan, but has also been we'll tested in all the
complaints for which it is recommended. 1t
is not my intention, therefore, either to cloak
it in mystery, or in any way deceive the pub
lie by overrating its virtues on the contrary,
shall simply cndeavor to give Il brief state
ment of its usefulness, and Hatter myself that
its surprising efficacy will enable me to furnish
such proofs of its virtues, as will satisfy the
most incredulous, that consumption may and
scan be cured," if this medicine be resorted to
in time.
