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 Btill 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, sir, yours truly, J. HILL.' ||TTERLY UNRIVALLED lITTBRLY UNRIVALLED UTTERLY UNRIVALLED The above speaks for tself. From strict inquiry it appears that the benefit from using 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'i 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. fTTFEIGHT INJGOLD TITEIGHT IN GOLD ilfnGWfi IN GOLIJ Under date September 8, 1891, Mr Hill attain writeß: "I should long since have lien dead, bu for your Lostengeß-Jfcy art Zrth their we^ht in g<M will gladly see and tell anyone what a splendid cough remedy they are." .
