what the Doctors Say:
AMOS WooLLBY, NJ. D., of KOsciuskO county,
Indiana, says: "For three years past have used
ALLKS's LUNe BALsAM extensively In my prac-
tce, and am satisfied there Is no better medicine
for lung diseases In use"
ISAAC A. DORIAN, M. D., of Logan county,
Ohio, says: "ALLEE's LUNG BALsAN not only
sells rapidly, but gives perfect satisfaction in eve
~ case within my knowledge. Having eonhd-
ence in It, and knowing thst it possesses valu-
able medicinal properties, freely use IL In my
daily practice, and with unbOunded success. AS
an expectorsnt il Is most certainly ahead Of any
preparation have ever yet known"
NATHANIEL HARRIS, M. D., Of Middlebury,
Vermont, says: 81 have no doubt it win soon be-
come a classical remedial agent for the cure Of
all diseases Of the Throat, Bronchial Tubes, and
the Lungs"
Physicians do not recommend a medicine which
has no merit; what they say about
ALIENS LUNG BALSAM,
Can be taken as fact. Let all afflicted test it
at once.
81 II is harmless to the most delicate child.
- It contains no opium in any form.
Call for "Allen's Lung Bslsam," and shun the
use Of any other Balsam; unprincipled men may
deceive you with worthless preparations.
