What a Well-known Chemist hao to say of Ur Sheldon’s New Discovery. April 27th, 1904. Sheldon Drug Co., 15 O’Connell street, Sydney, N.S.W. Dear Sirs, — Last week I took home a bottle of Dr Sheldon’s New Discovery for Coughs, Cold?, and Consumption. I obtained this for my two boys aged seven and four years. The elder lad had a nasty, troublesome cough and cold ; the other a bad cold ana a cough just beginning to trouble him. They each took your cough remedy, which, by the way, they liked immensely, and in two days the cough and cold of the younger boy had entirely disappeared, having been cut short in good time, and at the end of the third day the elder boy was absolutely cured. Being a chemist for seventeen years, I ana naturally somewhat antagonistic to proprietary and patent medicines, but in this instance I must recognise and acknowledge the efficiency and merit of your excellent preparation and give credit where credit is due, 1 was greatly pleased with the marvellous and striking curative and soothing properties of your admirable remedy, which I will add, from a pharma cuitical standpoint, is splendidly compounded.—Yours faithfully, CHARLES A. r INCH, Ph. C., M.P.S., etc. Kuranda, Boyce street, Glebe Point, Sydney, N.S.W. For sale by A. W. J. Mann, Agent, Chemist.
