timely use of some proper remedy
DR.. HALLS BALsAA strikes at the root OF the
disease at once, and such is its speedy elect
that any one using it freely according to di-
rections for twenty-iour or torty-eight hours,
and not entirely satisfied with its merits,
may return it and receive back their money.
The most distressing cough is frequently re-
lieved by single dose, and broken up IN a
few hours' time The afflicted do not have
to take bottle after bottle before they ind
whether this remedy will afford relief or not.
The public have been imposed upon by
remedies recommended by certificates which
have always originated from some unknown
source. We believe that medicine possess
ing real merits will effect cures wherever it
is used, at home as well as abroad. This is
no paregoric preparation, but one which If
used in season will save the lives OF thou
sands.
1t has effected cures in numerous cases,
where the most skillful physicians in this
country and in Europe have been employed,
and have exercised their skill in VI w. Cases
which they have pronounced incui 'ble, and
surrendered as hopeless beyond doubt,
leaving the patients without a single ray 10
enliven them in their gloom, have been cured
by Dr.. Halls Balsam, and the "Tlctn Is OF
consumption" are now vigorous and rong
as the most robust among us. And these
cases are not isolated ones they are nj mer-
Gus, and can be pointed out in every COM
munity where this most unrivaled remedy
has been tested.
Be slow, then, to believe the oft-repeated
story about the lungs being gone or rather
let no such apprehension induce You to give
up. Act upon the principle that while there
is life there is hope. You can never be So low
that you may not trust humanity speaking,
in Halls Balsam. More than one, nay, hun
dreds has it brought almost from death to
life, when all else had failed. Give, then,
this powerful but harmless remedy trial.
Call on the agent and get PAM hlet gratis.
The treatise on consumption alone Is worth
the price for the medicine. You will find Ger
tdcates of physicians in Cincinnati, and Of
others whose cures have been effected here at
home, where they can be found.

MEssRs, A. L. ScoyILL & Co.
Dear sirs,-The public generally are fully
aware Of the thousands Of remedies for dis
eased lungs, under the titles of Sarsapa-
rillas. Pills, Plasters, Linimonts, etc, that
are daily brought to their notice through the
NEWSPAPERS, by way of advertise monts. My
object in writing this note for publication is
TO induce the public or at least those who are
nnifytyI, &c hoy will use patent medicines, }
TO use one that containe ortioloo Of real uee in
pulmonary diseases. | am conscious that in
30 doing i am acting most professionally,
and derogatory TO the interests Of medical
science and the regular practitioners of medi-
cine.
The medicine to which I refer is Dr. Halle
Balsam for the Lungs. l have prescribed it
in q large number Of cases, and always with
success. One case in particular TO which !
wish now to refer, was given up by several
physicians who had been called in consulta-
ton with myself The patient had all the
symptoms of confirmed consumption, such
rs cold night sweats, hectic fever, harassing
cough, with continued pain in the lobe Of the
RIGHT lung, attended with severe diarrhea !
He commenced Immediately to get better by
the use of the above-nHmed medicine, and
was soon restored TO his usual health!
have also found DR.. Halls Balsam the most
valuable expectorant for breaking up dis
tressing coughs and colds that ! have ever
used. W. D. Nh4DH4' NJ u

partly of living too much alone in that
