"Dear Sir, — I am a poor hand at ex« pressing 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, thank God, I am still alive) performed at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one coutd possibly have had a more violent cough : it was bo bad at times that it quite exhausted me. The mucous, 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" A DOCTOR, b TESTIMONY. " Routh Park, Cardiff, South Wales, Sept. 28, 1893. " I have, indeed, great pleasure in adding my testimony to your excellent preparation of Cough Lozenges, and I have prescribed it now for the last eight years in my hospital and private practice, and found it of great benefit. I often suffer from Chronic Bronchitis ; your Lozenge is the only remedy whicb gives me immediate ease. Therefore I certainly and most strongly recommend your Lozenges to the public who may suffer from Catarrh, Bronchitis, Winter Cougb, or any kind of Pulmonary Irrita tion— Tours truly.
