Ask throughout the world, in any country that can be named, you will find them largely sold. There is absolutely no remedy that is so speedy in giving relief, so certain to cure, and yet the most delicate can take them. j■■'- (|§fSS 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 te thank you. Your lozengea have done wonders in relieving my terrible cough. Since I had the operation of ' Tracheotomy' (the same aa 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 ao bad at times that it quite exhausted mo. 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.' UTTERLY UNRIVALLED lITTERLY UNRIVALLED lITTERLY UNRIVALLED The above speaks for tself. From strict Inquiry it appears that the benefit from using Keating's Cough Lozengea 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. TffEIGHT IN GOLD WEIGHT IN GOLD tIfEIGH'JD IN GOLD Under date September 8, 1891, Mr Hill again writes: " I should long since have been dead, but for your Lozenges— they (vre north their weight in gold.
