" Dear Sir, —I am a poor hand at express ing my feelings, but I should like to thank you. Your lozenges have dene wonders in relieving my terrible cough. Since I had the operation of * Tracheotomy' (the same as the late Emperor of Germany, and unlike | him, taank God, I am still alive) performed at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one could possibly have had a more violent cough; it was bo 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.^ lITTERLY UNRIVALLED UTTERLY UNRIVALLED lITTERLY UNRIVALLED The above speaks for tself. From strict Inquiry it appears that the benefit from uauig 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 ise of these Lozenges. So successful are they that one affords immediate benefit, although from the nature of the case the throat irritation is Intense.
