VEGETABLE BALSAMIC ELIXIR,
FOR
Coughs, Colds, Consumption, WhOOplDg Cough,
Group Asthma, and all diseasH Of the
Chest and Lungs,

Group Asthma, and all diseases Of the
Chest and Lungs
This valuable medicine is purely vege-
table the discovery Of which has been the
result Of many years close study (while
suffering under those formidable diseases
which prey upon the organs of the chesD
in order to discover the causes, the symp-
toms and the cure, viz Consumption,
Asthma, Catarrh, Colds and every species
of oppression of the chest. In all cases
where this Elixir has been duly admins
tered its efficacy has been invariably mani
tested, convincing the most incredulous that
even CONSUMPTION is not incurable, if prop
erly attended to. As consumption at its
commencement is but slight irritation on
the membrane which covers the lungs, then
an inflammation, when the cough is a little
more observable, but rather dry, then be-
comes local fever, and the pulse more fire.
uuent, the cheeks arc flushed, and chills are
more common In its next stage the ex-
ternal parts Of the lungs themselves begin
/ to participate the fever, the strength fails,
the flesh wastes, and perspiraton is com
mon as debility and emacation increases,
small alterations or white hard specks APP
pear, the bowels become irregular, the sleep
is disturbed in the last stages, violent
coughing, profuse cold sweats, and constant
diarrhua, with hic-coughs, close the scene.
This Elixir, in curing the above complaints,
operates so as to remove all morbid irrita-
ton and inflammation from the lungs TO the
surface, and finally oxpel them from the
system, by perspiau0u and otherwise. IL
ea..t o
the patient from a load Of tough phlcgm
which cannot otherwise be wholly removed
from the system. 1t heals the liberated
surfaces and relieves the cough and makes
, breathing easy. 1t supports the strength
and at the same time reduces the fever. 1t
has at least one peculiar advantage over
other articles in common use for the same
purposes, it is free { ON strong opiate and
astringent articles. which are of so drying
a nature as to be in great danger of des-
troying the patient, with which they are
/ so highly tincmled whereas this medicine
l. never dries or stops the cough but by re-
, moving the CAUSE, and generally destroys
the hectic before the cough is entirely gone
consequently when the cough is cured the
patient is well. ltmay be relied on as per-
. lectly safe in all cases of cough and irrita-
Z ton Of the lungs the very best medicine
