TEST IVICNIALS: 1 From Rev. Charles Penny— Reefton (Late of Christchurch), i _ . March 17, 1884. I am happy to say’your 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 these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no mean order. From O. F. Salter, Esq., Barrister and Solicitor— Inglls’ Buildings, Christchurch. T , , March 20,1884. I have used your Pulmonic Elixir In my family for some years past, and have found it very efficacious in cheat and throat complaints. From William Reed, Esq. Shipping and Customs Agent— Lyttelton, Nov. 28. 1883. I have used yonc Lang Preserver In my family for the last fourteen years, there fors have the greatest pleasure In bearing testimony to its efficacy in the treatment of conghs, colds, bronchitis, croup whoop ing congh, etc. I have recommended it to my friends, who have also proved It a very palatable and speedy cure for chest and throat complaints. I have uniformly found a single dose of “ Long Preserver,' 1 chock a severe paroxysm of coughing. I shall on all occasions have great pleasure In recommending It to sufferers, as I con sider it a boon to mankind. From Isaac Allen Esq. , Commission Agent— i Hereford street, Christchurch, December 5, 1883. After seven years' experience I have great pleasure In testifying to the efficacy of your “ Lung 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, etc. I can heartily recommend it as the best, cheapest and most palatable mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, . whooping congh, etc. So highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand. From W. B. Scora, Esq., Builder, etc., i Peterborough reet, Christchurch, December 4, 1883. Some years ago I was recommended to try a bottle of your “ Pulmonic Elixir and Lung Preserver,” for tightness in the chest. I did so, and from that time I have never bpen without It in the house. 1 have fonnd it to answer in every respect *°* oonghs, colds, and sore throat, and would strongly advise those that are suf fering from such complaints to try it.
