For Diseases ofhe Throat and Lttngs, such
as Coughs. Colds, Whooping Cough,
Bronchitis, Asthma, and

Probably never before in the whole history Of
medicine, has anything widely and go
deeply upon the confidence Of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through long series Of years, ana among most
Of the OF men it has risen higher and higher
in their estimation it has become better known.
It's uniform character and power TO cure the vari-
affections Of the lungs and throat have made
it known reliable protector against them.
While adapted to milder forms of disease and to
young children, it is at the time the NEST
efectual remedy that can be given for incipient
consumption, and the dangerous affections Of the
threat and lungs. As provision against sudden
attacks of Group, it should be kept hand in ev-
cry family, and indeed as all aIe sometimes sub
ject to colds and coughs, all should be provided
with this antidote for them.
Although settled consumption is thought incur
able, still great numbers of cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cu-ed
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry Peetoral. So complete is its mastery over
the disorders Of tae Lungs and Throat, that the
most obstinate Of them yield TO it. When nothing
else could reach them, under the Cherry Pectoral
they subside and disappear.
Singers and public speakers find great protec-
tion "a ON il.
asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses.
So generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, or do
more than assure the public that its qualities
fully maintained

A GREAT REMEDY
roR THE crnE or
THROAT AND LUNG DISEASE.
DR.. WISHART's PINE TREE TAR CORDIA


THROAT AND LUNG DISEASE.
DR.. WIsHART's PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL.
1t is tho vital principle Of the Pine Tree, OBJ
tanned by peculiar process in the distilation Of
the tar, by which its highest medical properties
are retained.
It is the only safe guard and reliable remedy
which has ever been prepared from the juice Of
the Pine Tree.
It invigorates the digestive organs and restores
the appetite
1t strengthens the debii;ated system.
It Purifes and enFiches the blood, and expelg
from the system the corruption which serofula
breeds on the lungs
Il disolvss the mucus or phlegm which stop1
the air passage Of the lungs
Its healing principle acts upon the irrttateI
surface Of the lungs and throat penetrating TO
each diseased part, relieving. pain and subduing
inflammation.
1t is the result Of years Of study and expert
ment, and II IS offered to the afflicted, with the
positive assurance Of its power to cure the follow
ing diseases, if the patient has lot too long delay
ed 4 resort TO the means Of cure
Consumption Of the Lungs, Cough, Ssre Throat
and Breast, Bronchitis, Liver Complaint, Blind
and Bleeding Piles, Asthma, Whooping Cough,
Diptheria, &c, &c.
We are often asked Why are not other remedies
in the market for Consumption, Coughs, Colds
and other Pulmonary affections equal to Dr. l..
Q. Wishartl Pine Tree Tar Cordial. We an
swer-
lst 1t cures, not by stopping cough, but by
loosening and assisting nature to throw of the
unhealthy matter collected about the throat and
bronchial tubes, causng irritation and cough.
I'd. Most Throat and Lung Remedies are com
posed Of anodynes, which alIay the cough for
awhile, but by their eonstringing effects, the fbres
become hardened, and the unhealthy fluids coagu-
late and are retained in the system. causing dis
ease beyond the control Of onr most eminent ply
sicians.
Sd. The Pine Tree Tar Cordial, with its assist
ants, are preferable, because they remove the
causes Of irritation Of the mucous membrane and
bronchial tubes, assist the lungs to and throw
off the unhealthy seeretions and purify the blood
thus scientifically making the cure perfect.
