When you see girl with broom in

TINIIE BEST REMEDY EVER KNOWN to
L Man for Coughs, Asthma, Colds, Group,
Bronchitis, Influenza Bleeding of the Lungs,
Difficulty of Breathing, Liver Affections, Pain or
weakness of tho Breast or sido 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 us TO declare that even CONSUME
TlON could be cured by that alone. In other
hands, again, it was nearly valueless, owing, no
doubt to their ignorance in preparing and Nd-
ministering it-a difficulty now entirely obviated
by patient experiment and long experience.
Tho extraordinary medical powers of these
two substances are now, for the first tme com
bined and embodied in DR.. Wistars Balsam of
Wild Cherry. By nice chemical process, every
thing dcleterious or useless is rejected, SO that
what remains is the most extraordinary and tru-
~ etficaciOus remedy for all kinds of pulmonary
and liver diseases ever known to man. To con-
vince all unbelievers that our theory is really
true, we refer to a few cases of cures performed
by this wonderful medicine.
