The editor of the Manchester Daily and Weekly
Mirror. in leader of the Daily, thus speaks of the
Compound:
= "The " bite Pine Compound is advertised at much
that the demand for it is increasing beyond previ-
GUS expectations. 1t is the very best medicine for
coughs and colds we know OF, and family that has
once used it will ever be without it. We speak from
know edge, it is sure to xii cod and cas-
antas sure. The greatest inventions come by acci-
deut, and it Is singular that the " hi inc Com
pound, made for Colds and Coughs should prove to
be he greatest remedy for kidney diicu ties known
But so it is. We cannot doubt it, so many testimo
mails come us from wei known men. Besides, the
character of DIR. Pc and is that know he will
not countenance what is wrong. For years Bap-
tist clergyman, studying medicine to find remedies
for hi ailments, with delicate comsumptiye look
standing with one foot upon the ave, he made the
discovery which has saved him elf and ca ed out
from hundreds of others the strongest testimonials
possible. We have know DR.. Pc and for years. and
never knew a more conscientious, honest, upright
man, and we are ad to state that we be eve what
ever he says about his " hte Pine Compound.
