JOSEPH E BROWN, United States Senator from Georgia, has to say about this WONDERFUL CURE: Atlanta. Ga., February 11, 1888. To the Hunuicutt Rheumatic Cure Com pany: Gentlemen —I have been troubled with Bronchitis and occasional Sore Throat, with severe Cough, for a number of years past, and I have tried a great many of the most popular remedies known to the public or the profession—some mitigat ing the disease more and some less. I was finallv induced to trv the prepara tion known as HUNNICUTT’S THROAT AND LUNG CURE, which I have used frequently of late, and I find it a most excellent medicine. Indeed, I do not hesitate to say that I have derived more benefit from it than I have from any or all the other prepara tions. In case of Sore Throat it is especially fine. When in that condition l sip about a teaspoon-fill at a time every hour or so, keeping the throt lubricated with it, with very satisfactory results. It. lias another excellence in my case. It never produces nausea, but acts rather as a tonic. Very truly, etc., JOSEPH E. BROWN.
