There is absolutely no remedy that is so speedy in giving relief, so certain to cure, and yet the most delicate can take them. \ 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 frijn; tflank God, I am still alive) performed at St Bartholomew's Hospital, no one could DOBsibly have had a more violent cough; it was iOD&d at times that it quite exhausted me. The mucua, 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.' lITTERJLY UNRIVALLED lITTERLY UNRIVALLED IITTERLY UNRIVALLED The above speak* for tself. From strict inquiry it appears that the benefit from using Keating's Cough Lozenges is under stated. The operation was a specially ■evere one, and was performed by the ■pecialißt, 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. WEIGHT 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. I will gladly see »nd tell anyone what a splendid cough remedy they are." .
