Ayers Cherry Pectoral,

FOR TIE RAPID CURE OF
Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness,
Group, Bronchitis, Incipient Consump-
ton, and for the relief of Consumptive
Patients in advanced stages of the
disease.
So wide is the field of its usefulness and so nu-
merous are the cases of its cures, that almost
every section of country abounds in persons pub
licly known, who have been restored from alarming
and even desperate diseases of the lungs by its
use. When once tried, its superiority over every
ether medicine of its kind is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its virtues are known, tho
public no longer hesitate what antidote to employ
for the distressing and dangerous affections of tho
pulmonary organs that are incident to our climate.
While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this
on the afflicted they can can never forget, and Ap pro.
duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten.
