IN CALLING THE PUBLIC ATTENTION
TO THE
Indian Compound
COUGH MIXTURE
FOR the cure of CONSUMPTION and
all diseases of the LUNGS and
THROAT, I say that nothing surpasses it
for Colds and Coughs, and can be tAken
from old age down to the cradle with impu
nity. and without dauger. But the profes
sional world is so full of Ambiguousuess
and Egotism* that anything put before the
public as a safe and reliable Remedy for
certain diseases is scoffed at and pro
nounced worthless aud a humbug. I say
try it before you condemn it, as I will give
you the name of every herb, <&c., that it iR
composed of, which you can examine at
your leisure: Vitellus Ovi, Amygdaius
Persica. Mel, Pinus Palustrus. Andromeda,
Arborea. Arctium Leppa, Inula Helenium,
Mamibium Vulgare, Antennaria Symphy
tum, Duiehwachsener Wasserdost, Cepha
lanthus Occidentalis, Symphytum Offici
nale
It is prepared at my office, No. f><» Peach
tree street, ATLANTA, GA., where it can
be had in any quantity. If any one using
it will say that it has done them no good,
return the bottle and got your monev re
turned. S. T. DIGGERS, M. D.,
