Wistar's Balsam of wild
Cherry!!

TINE BEST REMEDY EVER KNOWN to
Il Man for Coughs, Asthma, Colds, Group,
Bronchitis, Influenza, Bleeding of the Lungs,
Difficulty of Breathing. Liver Affections, Pain or
weakness of tho Breast or sidc, First stages of
Consumption, &c.
Wild Cherry has long been known to possess
important medical properties. This fact is fami-
liar to every matron in our land, and physicians
often prescribe it in different forms for variety
of complaints. Tar, also, has been equally noted
for its virtues; and some physicians, whose
names are familiar to the whole country, have
gone so far as to declare that even CONSUMP-
T1ON could be cured by that alone. In other
hands, again, 1t was nearly valueless, owing, no
doubt, to their ignorance in preparing and ad-
ministcring it-a difficulty now entirely obviated
by patient experiment and long experience.
The extraordinary medical powers of these
20 substances are now, for the first time, com
ned and embodied in DIR. wistar's Balsam of
lid Cherry. By nice chemical process, every
ing deletcrious or useless is rejected, So that
hat remains is the most extraordinary and tru
etfcacious remedy for all kinds of pulmonary
Id liver diseases ever known to man. To con-
nee all unbelisvers that our theory is really
no, we refer to few cases of cures performed
this wonderful medicine.

Boston is supplied with cream from New

AN AGGRAVATED CASE OF CuoLERA..E
The Sunday Courier tells funny story of
one Brown. a family man, who one night
went on spree, and came home with the
cholera. His wife, an affectionate and
devoted woman, was in agony. She sup-
gssted all the most appropriate remedies
for this terrible disease. The victim grew
worse, The physician was sent for, but
instead of coming sent some medicine,
which was greedily swallowed, but with
out effect. Another messenger was dis
patched, but as it was growing late, the
physician again declined, but kindly sent
another prescription. This proved AS
powerless and as ineffective as its nrede.
oessor. The sufferer rolled upon the floor
in agony-the wife, with fearful owe
stood by in speechless grief. Brown was
sure he had the real cholera. He had
been in New Orleans when hundreds
were dying with it daily. He had watch.
ed by the side of friends, marked with
painful solieitude the approaching disso,
luton of those near and dear to him, and
was perfectly familiar with its terrible
symptoms and he was fully convinced
that his was an aggravated case. He was
lifted, on his bed Tho was too weak to
help himself-and a glass, half filled with
burnt brandy, was placed to his lips,
which ,involuntarily opened, and the con,
tents were poured down his throat. He
turned, and as he laid motionless. the
watchers left his bedside. Early in the
morning the curtains of his bed were mo.
we'd aside. and his wife asked if he would
take a dish of tea. ''
"Pm not dead, then--the cholera has
not killed me 9a said the sufferer.
" No, my dear" was the response, "but
