II was earlr in the snrinr Of 1s55 that az

at was carly in the spring of 1855 that this
compound was originated. A member of my fami
" was afflicted with an irritation of the throat
attended with a disagreeable cough. l had for
some months previous thought that a preparation
having Tor Its basis the inside bark OF white pine
might beso compounded as to be very useful in the
case of the throat and lungs. To test the value OF
it in the case alluded to, l compounded a small
quantity of the medicine that l had been planning,
and gave it in teaspoonfuI doses. The result was
exceedingly gratifying. Within two days the
irritation OF the the throat was removed, the cough
subsidized, and a speedy cure was effected. Soon
after this, l sent some to a lady in Londonderry
y. H., who had been suffering for some weeks from
Il bad cough, occasiOncd by a sudden cold, and had
raised mucus streaked with blood. She soon found
relief, ana sent for more. She took about ten
ounces Otit and got well. J. B.. Clarke, Esq, ed
itor of the Manchester Daily Mirror, made a trial
of the same preparation in the case of a severe cold,
and was cured Immediately. He was SO highly
pleased with the results, and so confident of sue
cess attending its sales if placed before the public,
that he finally persuaded NE to give it a name and
send il abroad to benefit the suffering. In Novem-
Der, 1875, / first advertised it under the name Of
White Pound Compound. In two years from that
time there had been whOlesaled in Manchester
alone one Hundred dollars porth, where it took the
lead Of all the cough remedies in the market, and
It sill maintains that position; There is good
in its nature, is warming to the stomach, and
pleasant withal to the taste, and is exceedingly
cheap.
As a remedy FOR kidney complaints, the White
4 lHN NfAllAfNAhA EldAiAo II Il "
originated for that purpose, but a person using it
for a cough, was not only cured of the cough, but
was also cured of a kidney difficulty of ten years
standing. Since that accidental discovery, many
thousands have used it for the same complaint, and
have been completely cured .
The above was written by DR.. POLAND in 1860
Since then, as in Manchester, the White Pine
Compound has taken the lead of all Cough reme-
dies, as well as preparations for the cure of Kidney
difficulties, in every city, town, village and hamlet
throughout the New England States. l-
The past year has given great opportunity to test
the virtue OF the White Pound Compound. 1t has
been an unusual time for Colds and Coughs, and
very large quantities of the White Pine Compound
have been sold and used with the happiest effects.
1t speaks we'll for the Medicine, and the people
where it is prepared are high in its praise.
One bottle of this Compound is generally sUfi-
cient to remove a bad cough, and frequently I have
a cold entirely removed in two days, by using less
than half Il bottle From one to two teaspoonfuls
is a large dose. sometimes put a little white SUI
gar and hot water with it, when taken on going to
bed.
The limits to which I purposely confue myself
in this circular, will not allow of that full express
sion which ! would like to give in favor Of the
White Pine Compound. 1t is universally admired
" all who use tit has attained to such a popu-
l1Tity among those whose opinion is valuable in
deed, that rJtitY may possibly in part prompt me
to record mere here than hurried people will have
patience to read; so I Will stop, by merely recon-
mendiug 20 all who need a cough or kidney remedy
to test the virtues Of the WHITE PINE COMPOUND.
