My doctor and a con- sumption specialist said I could not live more than eight or ten days, but after taking two bottles of your cure my appetite commenced gain- ing and the weakening perspira- tion stopped. I now have taken ten bottles and feel completely cured. I am better and stronger than I have been for years, and can 1' - commend it to anyone suffering from any lung trouble, knowing what it has done for me. -Wishing you every success, I remain, yours, “DAVID WARNOCK, “Street Car Conductor, “Toronto, Canada.’ I am receiving testimonials daily like the above from those who have been given up by the doctors. Many are speedily recovering, and some claim to be cured. Our success with advanced cases proves beyond a doubt the marvellous quality of this pieparation. It can be taken on the most delicate stomach, upon which it acts as a stimulating tonic. As a cure for consumption, weak or bleeding lungs, lingering coughs or bronchitis it is infallible.
