Ayers Cherry Pectora1,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and CONSUMPTION.


Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history Of
medicine, has anything won so widely and SO deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series of years, and among most of the races of
men has risen higher and higher in their estima-
tion as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat, have made it known rs
liable protector against them. While adapted to
mder forms of disease and to young children, it is
at the same time the most e1ectual remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dam
gerous affections of the throat and lungs AS pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Group, it should
be kept on hand IN every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject TO colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled CONSUMPTION is thought in
durable, still great numbers of cases where the dis
case seemed settled have been completely cured
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry Pectordt. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth.
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee
fOral they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro.
lection from it,
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PectOr0l in small and frequent doses.
SO generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, do more
than assure the public that its qualities fully
maintained.
