I had taken but three doses within twenty-four hours 1 when I was seized with a fit of coughing, and threw up lhe phlegm and mucus off my chest by the mouthful. The Syrup had loosened and broken it up. Continuing with the Syrup, the raoking pain, which I believe came from the bitter and poisonous humours in my blood and joints, soon left me entirely, and I felt like going to sleep, and I did sleep sound and quiet. Then I felt hungry, with a natural appetite, and as I ate I soon got strong and , well. / felt I could leap through the air with delight In a week I was able to go to my work again.
