subject of temperance. believe it to be one
Of the most vital questions of the age 1 have
heard many able temperance lectures, but have
never listened to one that gave me more last
ing pleasure than that given last Sunday even
ing by Mrs. Churchell in this city. 1t was full
of interest, based upon facts of experience and
physiology, we'll calculated to instruct and
benefit all classes. Mrs. G. is an easy speaker,
deeply interested in the noble work of reform,
unusually free from that unreasonable radical
ism which so frequently disgusts the more
thinking classes. She does not spend her time
in floating upon the surface of the great CUES
ton OF intemperance, but goes down to the
bottom of this fearful gulf and points out some
of its real causes, such as heredty, early
training improper food, &C.
wish could say something that would in
duce the friends of temperance to invite Mrs.
G. to deliver her lecture in every city in our
state. 7. A. FOSTER.

Messrs. Seth w Fowle & Sons:
Gentlemen-I feel it my duty to write few
words in favor of DIR. WIsTAR's BALsAM OF
WILD CHERRY. In the early part of last
winter took a severe cold, and shortly after a
distressing cough was added to it. My friends
did everything they could for me, but without
avail The best physicians that could be pro-
cured did not relieve me, and my cough CON
tinued with me all through the winter with
increasing severity. spit blood three or four
times day, and my friends considering my
case hopeless gave me up as a confirmed con-
sumptive. 1 was in this condition when 1
heard of DIR. WIsTAR's BALsAM OF WILD
CHERRY. began its use, and before 1 had
taken half o.tle of it my cough and all my
other troubles left me, and L was cured. L feel
so truly indebted to tins great remedy for what
it has done for me that l send you this voluu-
tary testimony. hoping it may be the means of
inducing others who are suffering as was, to
make use Of it. 1t is the best remedy for lung
complaints that 1 ever heard of, and am con-
stantly recommending it to my friends.
