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, toank God, I am still alive) performed at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one could possibly have had a more violent cough; it was so rod at times that) it quite exhausted me. The mucus, whioh was very oopious and hard, has been softened, and I have been able to get rid of it without difficulty, —I am, sir, youn truly, J. HILL. 1 lITTERLY UNRIVALLED ||TTBRLY UNRIVALLED ■ITTERLY UNRIVALLED The above speaks for teelf. From strict Inquiry it appears that the benefit from using Keating's Cough Lozenges is under stated. The operation was a specially seven 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 Lozenges. So successful are they that one affords immediate benefit, although from the nature of the case the throat irritation ia Intense.
