This Lung Medicine
TIh» maoufarturem of Eckman’s Alterative. a
medicine for Throat and Lung affections, regret
that all sufferers of these serious troubles do not
lake the trouble to investigate for themselves
what this medicine has accomplished during the
past fifteen years In a number of cases. Read
this: Griffith. Lake Co., Ind.
"Gentlemen: About September 10, 1908, my
mother-in-law was taken sick with Catarrhal
Pneumonia, which developed Into Lung Trouble.
In January, when Rev. Wm. Berg, of St. Mi
chael’s Church, at Schererville, Ind., prepared
her for death, he recommended that I get F.ok-
man’s Alterative and see If It would not give her
norne relief. The attending physician declared
she had Lung Trouble and was beyond all med
leal aid. So I immediately had Rev. Wm. Berg
to send for a bottle. Practically without hope
for recovery, I Insisted that she try the Alter
ative. which she did. I am glad to say that
she toon began to improve. Now, she works as
hard as ever, weighs twenty pounds heavier than
she ever did before she took sick, and is In
good health.”
(Affidavit) .108 GRIMMER.

Ei kman’s Alterative has been proven by many

Throat and Lung Affections. Bronchitis, Bron

cleaning is a necessity to
modern good housekeeping.
If it is not a sin, it is at
least foolish to stir up the

breathed into the lungs,

back into the woven floor
