.ALOVELY YOUNG LADY CURED OF
CONSUMPTION !@

CONSUMPTION !@
~ The following is from the pen of VIM. n
Levison, Esq, the distinguished editor of the u
S. Military and Naval Argus, under date New
York, January 26; 1850. What could be more con-
elusive
1T is seldom we permit ourselves to occupy q
space in these columns to speak in praise OF any
article in the patent medicine way but when we
see the life of a fellow-crcature saved by the use
of any medicine whatever, we consider 1t as our
right, ifnot our duty, to give a simple statement OF
facts, that others may, in like manner, be bene-
fitted. The case which has induced us to penthls
article was that of a young lady Of our acquain-
lance, who by frequent exposure to~the Hight AIR,
contracted a Cod which settled on the Lungs be-
fore its ravages could be stayed. This occurred
two year ago this water.) Various remedies
were used, but with very little effect OF benefit
The Cough grew worse, with copious expectora-
ton, and the sunken eye, and pale, hollow cheek,
told plainly that pulmonary disease was doing its
worst on her delicate frame. The family physi-
clan was sonsulted, and although he would not adj
NIT to the young lady that she really had the Con-
sumption, yet he would give no encouragement as
to a cure. At this crisis her mother was persua-
ded to make use eff a bottle of DR.. Rogers Com
pound Syrup of Liverwort and Tar, and we are
happy to state she was perfectly cured in less than
three months by this medicine alone, after even
hope was destroyed. 1t is useless to comment on
such a case as this, for the simple truth will reach
where polished fiction never can. If any doubt
the authenticity of this statement, let them call at
this oftice.-U. S. Military and Naval Argus, No.

DR.. ROGERS SYRUP OF L1vERwoRT AND Tar
We have heard ofseveral important cures recently
effected by this excellent medicinal preparation,
and in one instance that came under our observa-
ton, we can speak confidently. One of our en-
ployers, who had suffered severely from a long
standing cold, during the past week commenced
the use Of this medicine, and his Cold has entirely
disappeared.

L1vERwoRTH AND TAR.-Of the virtues of Or.
Rogers Cough Medicines prepared from the above
articles, it is needless now to speak its efficacy IN
speedily curing Coughs, Colds, and other lung
complaints, which too frequently, if neglected, re-
suit in Consumption, is too well established In pub
lie confidence to need eulogy now.
From the New York Despatch, Aug 25th, ls49.
We have heretofore taken occasion to give our
testimony in favor of the curative properties Of
DR.. Rogers Compound Syrup of Liverwort and
Tar, and would here repeatthe advice already CIV
en-, for all persons who are afflicted with Con-
sumption, or any of the premonitory symptoms,
to make a trial Of DR.. Rogers preparation.
