Ia The reports of the progress of cholera

In particular spots it has been fatal but even
there the causes of it are seen at glance. At
Rochester, for instance, eighteen persons died
in one block; on examination it was found a
perfect pest house. The basement was wet,

| Many years of trial, instead of imparing the
public confidence in this medicine, has won for
1t an appreciation and notoriety by far exceed
ing the most sanguine expectations Of its friends.
Nothing but its intrinsic virtues and the unmis-
table benefit conferred on thousand of sufferers,
could originate and maintain the reputation it
enjoys. While many inferior remedies thrust
upon the community, have failed and been dis
carded, this has gained friends by every trial,
conferred benefits on the afflicted they can ne
yer forget, and produced cures too numerous
and too remarkable to be forgotten
While it is fraud on the public to pretend
that any one medicine will infallibly cure-stiIl
there is abundant proof that the CherTg Pectoral
does not only as general thing, but almost in
variably cure the maladies for which it is en-
plOyed.
As time makes these facts wider and better
known, this medicine has gradually become the
best reliance Of the afflicted, from the log-cabin
OF the American Peasant, to the palaces of Eu-
Iropean Kings. Throughout this entire countrv
in every State, city, and indeed almost every
hamlet 1t contains, Cherry Pictorial is known as
the best remedy eXtant for diseases ofthe Throat
Lungs, and in many foreign countries. it is com
ing to be extensively used by their most intelli-
gent Physicians. In Great Britain. France and
Germany, where the medical sciences have reach
ed their highest perfection, Cherry Pecto,qE is
introduced, and IN constant use in the Armies

their attending Physician can employ for the
more dangerous affections of the lungs. Also
IN milder cases, and for children it is safe. plea
SAINT and effectual to cure. In fact, some OF the
most hattering testimonials wereceive have been
from parents who have found it eficacious in
cases particularly incidental to childhood.
The Cherry Pectoral is manufactured by q
