for which it is recommended.
Messrs. Fitzgerald & Benners, writing
from Waynesville, N. C. sayst—The Liver
wort and Tar is becoming daily more pop*
ular in this county.and we think justly so.
All who have tried it speak in commendable
terms of it, aud say it is very beneficial in
alleviating the complaints for which it is re*
commended.”
Our Agent in Pickens District, S. C. Mk
S. R.McFall, assures us that he uses it
with great benefit in his own family, and
recommends it to his oeighbors. He gives
au instances of a Negro woman, in his Vici
uity, who had been suffering with disease of
the Lungs for years, attended with sever*
cough, who was relieved by the Liverwort
and Tar.
Such are the good reports we hear of this
Medicine from all parts of the South. For
