" Dear Sir,—l am a poor hand at express ing my feelings, but I should like to thank you. Your lozenges have done wonders in relieving my terrible cough. Since I had the operation of ' Tracheotomy' (the same as the late Emperor of Germany, and unlike him, thank God, I am still alive) performed at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one could possibly ha*e had a more violent cough; it was so bad at times that it quite exhausted me. The mucus, which was very copious \ and hard, has been softened, and I have been able to get rid of it without difficulty. —I am, sir, yours truly, J. HILL." MEDICAL NOTE- The above speaks for itself. From strict inquiry it appears that the benefit from using Keating's Cough Lozenges is under stated. The operation was a specially severe one, and was performed by the specialist, Dr H. T. Butlin, of St. Bartho lomew's Hospital. Since the operation the only means of relief is the use of these Lozenges. So successful are they that one affords immediate benefit, although from the nature of the case the throat irritation is intense. UNRIVALLED TESTIMONY Under date September 8, 1891, Mr Hill again writes: "I should long since have been dead, but for your Lozenges— they are worth their weight in gold. I will gladly see and tell anyone what » splendid cough remedy they are. Keating's Cough Lozenges are unrivalled remedy for COUGHS, HOARSENESS, and THROAT TROUBLES, are sold in Tins by all Chemists.
