I am happy to sayjyour 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 we patient resolved In the future to take no thing else.



Other caaea could be cited, but these will be aoffioient to ahow that your Pul* monio Elixir la a remedy of no mean order. From 0. F.

From Ihaio Aura Esq., Commission Agent— Hereford street, Ohrlatohnroh, 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, etc., 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, etc. I can heartily recommend it as tile best, cheapest and most palatable mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping cough, etc. So highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand. From W. B. Soon, Esq., Builder, etc., Peterborough reet, Christchurch, December 4, 1883. Some years'ago I was recommended to try a bottle of your “ Pulmonic TCHxir and Lung Preserver,” for tightness in the chest. I did so, and from that time I have never been without it in the house. 1 have found it to answer In every respect for coughs, colds, and sore throat, and would strongly advise those that are suf fering from such complaints to try it.
