The Great Cough Remedy.
IT3un1phdTt Success Of the-Hunga15ap
or Ague Cake

triumphant Success OF the-HUa9dr1dn
BaIsan1 Of L%te.
The astonishing success of the Hungarian
Balsam, in the cure OF every form of Con-
sumption, warrants the proprietors in solicit
ing for treatment the worst possible cases
that can be found in the community-cases
that seek relief in vain from any of the com
mon remedies of the day, and have been
given up by the most distinguished physi-
clans as confirmed and incurable The
Hungarian Balsam has cured, and will cure
the most desperate ofcases. 1t is no quack
nostrum, but a standard medicine, of known
and established efficacy. ----' -
Every family in the United States should
be supplied with the Hungarian "Balsams of
Life, not only to cOunteract the cOnsumptive
tendencies of the climate but to be used as
a preventive medicine in all cases of Colds,
Coughs, Splitting of Blood, Pain IN the side
and Chest Irritation and Soreness of the
Lungs, Bronchitis Difficulty of Breathing,
Hectic Fever. Night Sweats, Emaciation,
General Debility, Asthma, Influenza, Whoop-
ing Cough, and Croop In case of actual
disease Of the Lungs, or seated Consumption,
it is the only source of hope. The
g.3 Hungarian BaIsam Of Life -'
is rapidly advancing in the estimation Of tie
public, wherever it has been used 1t is no
eHpAIlCdl ISIuSdJ FiOICeu upOL4 LIS pa Jilc by
indirect means. 1t is the old English cure
for Consumption, which has relieved more
cases of Lung Diseases than alI.the "Cherry
Pectorals and "Expectorarts" known; be-
ing entirely free from opium and other mar
cOtic drugs, which are the principal ingre-
dents in most iOf the cough remedies of the
day, and which only palliate and stupefy the
patient without affording permanent relief
While this great English Remedy acts
specifically upon the lungs, curing promptly
all ordinary Coughs and Colds, and, if per
severed in, will most effectually cure Con
sumption. If this does not cure you, you
can put your case down as hopeless.
Testimonials are daily pouring in upon US,
of cures having been performed, even where
the most eminent. medical men had aban-
doned all hope.

Texas Tonic Syrup a remedy Invaluable
as it is cheap-More people have lost their
lives in mistaken efforts to prolong existence
than were ever killed in battle.
Powerful mineral medicines administered
in common place remedial diseases, as in In
termittent, and Bilious Remttent Fevers,
are peri Gus to life and have often shortened
the term of existence Remedies of this
character can only be used in safety when
administered by the most learned and skill
full physicians. 1t therefore happens that a
preparation composed of harmless ingredi-
ents, and yet sure beyond all contingency in
it's effects, is of priceless value everywhere
in the southern country. Intelligent physi-
clans are often remote and Fevers in many
forms prevail Therefore sure, simple and
harmless remedy like the Texas Tonic Syrup
becomes Invaluable in family. A bottle

ChiIIs and Fever.

The proprietor of this celebrated medi-
cine Justly claims for it a superiority over
all remedies ever offered to the public for
the safe, certain, speedy, and permanent
cure of Ague and Fever or Chills and Fever,
whether of short or long standing. He re-
fers to the entire Western and Southwest
ern country to bearShim testimony to the
truth Of the assertion, that in no case what
ever will it fail to cure, if the directions are
strictly followed and carried out In a
great many cases a single dose has been suf-
ficient for cure, and whole families have
been cured by a single bottle, with a perfect
restoration of the general health. 1t is,
however prudent and in every case more
certain to cure, if its use is continued in
smaller doses for a week or two after the
disease has been checked, more especially in
difficult and long standing cases. Usually,
this medicine will not require any aid to
keep the bowels in good order; should the
patient however, require cathartic medicine,
after having taken three or four doses of the
Tonic, single dose of BULLS VEGETA-
BILE FAMILY PILLS will be sufficient.
