THIS remedy has won for itself such notoriesy
from its cures of every variety of pulmonary disease
that it IS entirely unnecessary to recount the evil
dences of its virtues IN any community where il
has been employed. So wide is the field OF its use
fl,lness, and so numerous the cases of its cures,
that alrpost every section of the country aboundS
in persons publicly known, who have been restored
from alarming and even desperate diseases OF the
lungs BY its use. When once tried its superiority
over every other medicine of its kind Is too appa
rent to escape observation and where its virtues are
known. the public no longer hesitate what aRtidote
to employ for the distressing and dangerous aztec
tons of the puln onary organs which are incident
to our climate Not only in formidable attacks
upon the lungs, but for the milder varieties OF
COLDS. CorsHs. HoARsENEss. &c. and for Chill
pREN it is the pleasantest and safest medicine that
ear be obtained.
As i, has long been in constant nss throughout
this section. we need not do more than assure the
people its quality kept up to the best that ever
has been. and that the genuine article is sold by
