The numerous letters we receive from our various agents, inform ing us of cures effected in their immediate neighborhoods, warrant us in saying it is one of tho best, if not the very best cough medicine now before the public. It almost invariably relieves and not unfrequently eures the very ivorst of cases. When all other Cough preparations have failed, this has relieved the patient as Druggist, deal ers iu Medicines,and Physicians can testify Ask the Agent in your nearest town what has been his experience of the effects of this medicine. If he has been selling it for any length of time he will tell you IT IS THE BEST MEDICINE EX TANT. Below wo give a few extracts from let ters we have received lately regarding tli” virtues of this medicine. Dr. S. S. Oslin, of Knoxville, Ga says: I have been using your Liverwort and Tar very extensively in iny practice for threo years past, aud it is with pleasure I state my belief in its superiority over all other articles with which lain acquainted, for which it is recommended. Messrs. Fitzgerald &. Beuuers, writing from Waynesvillo, N. C. says:—The Liver wort and Tar is becoming daily more pop ular in this county,and we think justly so. AH who have tried it speak in commendable terms of it, and say it is very beneficial in alleviating the complaints for ‘which 3 is re commended.” Our Agent in Pickeus District, S. C. Mr, S, R. McFall, assures - us that he uses it with great honefit in his own family, and recomraemls it to his neighbors. Me gives bu instances of a Negro woman, in his vici nity, who had been suffering with disease of the Lungs for years, attended with severe cough, who was relieved by the Liverwort and ‘Par. Such are the good reports we hear of this Medicine from all parts of the South. For a report of tho surprising cures it has per formed in tho Western and Northern and Eastern States, we would invite the suffer ing patient to roaa thepamphlet which ac companies each bottle.
