I was afflicted at times so severely, that the blood would gush from my nose, and my breath ing was difficult. Indeed the disease had gained so much on me that 1 despaired of ever getting well, when 1 chanced to get a bottle of “ Wistar’s Bal.-aui of Wild Cherry,” which effected a perfect cure, and 1 now consider myself perfectly sound.
