Bleeding Mt the Lungs.

PUTNAM, Conn, March 20, 1869.
Gcn'lcmen-I avail myself of this opportunity
to say word IN behalf of Dr. Wistar's Balsam OF
Wild Cherry, which | have made use of in my
family for several years, and always with the most
beneficial results. My wife being of delicate
habits, has always been troubled with hard, dry,
hacking cough, whenever taking little cold, aud
has employed various specifics without obtaining
any relief, until prevailed upon to test the virtues
of Wistar's Balsam, the effect Of which has been
truly astonishing.
More than year since young man belonging
in this place was taken with bleeding at the lungs,
in connection with most severe cough, and was
finally given over to die by our best physicians,
and it was evident 10 all that consumption was
claiming him as victim. Learning these facts,
my wife sent him bottle of the Balsam, which he
took, and, in due iime to the great astonishment
Of his friends, was at his accustomed occupation,
snatched, as it were, from the very jaws of death.
In many other cases we have administered the
Balsam to the coasumptive, and always with the
best of success. These statements are simple
facts, which can be vouched for at any time by
calling on me at my store.
remain, yours truly, JOHN B. DARLING.
