he wds cured Of Consumption.
Many years ago, whist residing in Philadel
phis, I had progressed gradually into the last
stage Of Pulmonary Consumption. All hopes OF
my recovery being dlssipated, was advised by
DR.. Parrish to remove into the country. Moores-
town, N. j., being my native place, Was remov-
ed thither. My father and all his family had iiv-
ed aud died there-dled Of Pulmonary Consump-
ton. On my arrival ] was put TO bed, where l
lay for many weeks in what was deemed hope
less condition. DIR. Thornton, who had been my
fathers family ply stefan, and had attended him
in his last illness, was called to see me- He
medicine, and decided that must die, and gave
me one week to arrange my temporal affairs. In
this apparently hopeless condition, heard OF the
remedy which now make and sell II seemed
to me that could feel them working their way
and penetrating every nerve, fibre, and tissue Of
my system.

the morbid matter which for years had accumu-
lated and irritated the different organs Of the
body, was eliminated, the tubercles OF my lungs
were ripencd, and 1expectnrat ed from my lungs
~ much a. a pint Of yellow offensive matter every
morning. As this expeetoration Of matter sub
sided, the fever abated, the pain left me, the
cough ceased to hHTrSss me, and the exhausting
nixht-swcats were no longer known. and had
