K EATING'S LOZENGES XT-EATING'S LOZENGES KEATING S LOZENGES ! i "A Simple Fact about" KEATING'S COUGH LOZENGES. Ask throughout the world, in any country that can be named, you will find them largely sold. There is j absolutely no remedy that is so speedy in giving relief, so certain to cure, and yet the most delicate can take them, A TERRIBLE COUGH A TERRIBLE COUGH A TERRIBLE COUGH 94, Commercial road, Peckham, July 12. " Dear Sir,—l am a poor band 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, tnank God, I am still alive) performed at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one could possibly have 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, bit, yours truly, J. HILL.' 11TTERLY UNRIVALLED HTTERLY UNRIVALLED IJTTERLY UNRIVALLED The above speaks for tself. From strict Inquiry it appears that the benefit from tising Keating's Cough Lozenges is under stated, The operation was a specially severs 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. WEIGHT IN GOLD WEIGHT IN GOLD WEIGHS IN GOLD Under date September 8, 1891, Mr Hill again writes: " I should long since have been dead, but for your Lozenges— they art worth their weight in gold. I will gladly see and tell anyone what a Bplendid cough remedy they are." c Keating's Cough Lozenges, the unrivalled remedy for Coughs, Hoarseness, and Throat (Troubles are sold in tins by all Chemists.
