A TERRIBLE COUGH A TERRIBLE COUGH ■" A TERRIBLE COUGH M, Commercial road, Peckham, July 12^ . " 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 i him, tnank God, I am still alive) performed at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one could possibly have had a more violent cough; it j was so bad at times that it quite exhausted me. The mucus, which waa 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.' lIJTTERLY UNRIVALLED BITTERLY UNRIVALLED UTTERLY UNRIVALLED ; - tEhe above speaks for' tself. \ From striot -Inquiry it appears that: the benefit from using Kaating*s Cough. Lozenges is under stated. The operation waa ---a. Epecially severe one^ and -waa performed by th« speoialist, Dr H. T. Butlin, of St. Bartho. lomew's Hospital. Since the operation the only meanr of relief is the -use of these Lozenges. So successful are they that one affords immediate beaefit, although from the nature of the case the throat irritation ia Intense. WEIGHT IN GOLD WEIGHT IN GOLD WEIGH'!!
