I am happy to sayUyour Pulmonic Elixir afforded my wife and children almost im mediate relief in coughs and colds, and many to whom I have had the pleasure of recommending your specific have spoken of it as Invaluable. In one case when every remedy tried was powerless to give relief (the cough was so distressing) the first dose of your Elixir proved most effective. In another case (sore throat) a cure was soon brought about .that the patient resolved in the future to take no thing else. Other oases could be cited, but thes* will be sufficient to show tnat your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no mea> order. From O. F.

I shall on all occasions have great pleasure in recommending it to sufferers, as I con sider it a boon to mankind.



From Isa 40 Aun Esq. , Commission Agent— Hereford street, Christchurch, December 6, 1883. After seven years' experience 1 have great pleasure in testifying to'the efficacy of your “ Long Preserver,” having proved it in my family to be a specific for coughs, colds, eta, a few doses Invariably subdu-. ing the nasty harassing cough, while re* lieving the throat and chest, it does not, like other nostrums, disorder the digestive organs by inducing nausea, constipation, headaches, loss of appetite, eta I can heartily recommend it as the best, cheapest and most palatable mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping cough, eta bo highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand.
