Your lozenges have done wonders in relieving my terrible cough. Since I had the operation of ' Tracheotomy' (the same m the late Emperor of Germany, and unlike him, taank God, I am still alive) performed at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one could possibly hare had a more violent cough; it was so bad at times that it quite exhausted me. The mucus, which was very copiouß and hard, has been softened, and I have been »bl« to get rid of it without difficulty, —I am, sir, yours truly, J. HILL.' lITTERLY UNRIVALLED UTTERLY UNRIVALLED lITTERLY UNRIVALLED The above speaks for tself. From strict Inquiry it appears that the benefit from using Keating's Cough Lozenges ia 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 nse of these Loienges. So successful are they that one affords immediate benefit, although from the nature of the case the throat irritation is Intense.
