" 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, tnank God, I am still alive) performed I at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one couM J 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.' IITTERLY UNRIVALLED UTTERLY 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's Hospital. Since the operation the only means of relief is the nse of these L ozenges. So successful are they that one affords immediate benefit, although from the nature of the case the throat irritation ia intense. *jhrEIGHT IN GOLD WEIGHT IN GOLD WEIGHT IN GOLD Under date September 8, 1891, Mr Hill again writes: "I should long since have been dead, but for your Lozenges— they are worth their weight in gold.
