Ask throughout the world, in any country that can be named, you will find them largely sold.

X TERRIBLE COUGH A TERRIBLE COUGH A TERRIBLE COUGH 94, Commercial road, Peckham, July 12. " Dear Sir, —I 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, 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. 1 UTTERLY UNRIVALLED UTTERLY UNRIVALLED UTTERLY UNRIVALLED The above speaks for tself. From utrict Inquiry it appears that the benefit from using Keating's Cough Lozenges is under stated. The operation was a specially ■evere one, ana was performed by the ■pecialist, Dr H. T. Butlin, of St. Bartho lomew's Hospital. Since the operation the only means of relief is the nse of these Lozenges. So successful are they that one affords immediate benefit, although from the nature of the case the throat irritation is Intense. TTTEIGHT IN GOLD WEIGHT IN GOLD IITEIGHJ3 IN GOLD Under date September 8, 1891, Mr Hill again writes: "I should long since have been dead, but for your Lozenges— they an worth their weight in gold. I will gladly see and tell anyone what a splendid cough remedy they are." . Keating's Cough Lozenges, the unrivalled rsmedy for Coughs, Hoarseness, and Throat Troubles are sold in tins by all Chemists.
