very much afflicted with severe cold, and almost
constant cough and having tried various remedies,
syrups &C., and all to no effect, was induced by
my esteemed friend W. W. Wallace, of this CITY, to
make a trial of +. f Sellers Cough Syrup. i did
so, and to my great surprise, received almost ii-
mediate relief. 1t was with tho greatest difficulty
that ectured before my respective cla Sos, but
taking spoonful of the Syrup, just before entering
my lecture room, could speak with perfect ease
during the evening. would particularly recon-
mend it to clergymen, lawyers, and other public
speakers. JAMES Ii. PORTER,
