LUMSDEN & WILSON, SEAFORTH : GENTLEMEN : I think it is only fair tat tell you that I believe your " Royal Glyeerated Balsam of Fir" once saved ine from going into a decline. I suffered from great pain in the lunge and bronchial tubes, and was really afraid that I was to be a victim to that dread consumption. I was advised to try, and did get a bottle of your Balsam, and it cured me entirely in a short time. I believe: it is the beat . medicine for such troubles that can be got. Signed-DUNCAN CAMPBELL, Walton. Another writes The "Glycerated Balsam of Fir " I got from ycu, proved to be the best cough medicine I ever had in my life. I never had anything to equal it. I was distressed by a very bad cough, which had bung on me for about three weeks, preventing my sleeping at nights. I only need one-third of the bottle, and am now completely cured. Signed-ANGUS McDERMID. • Another writes : Will you please send me half a dozen bottles of Balsam of Fir per express, at once. A bottle of this has been in'r;*y possession for some time. I gave it to a man suffering from sore throat, hoarseness, &o., and he wants these six for himself and friends. Signed—JOHN MOFFAT, Kincardine. - Another writes : -It is now about six years since I first tried your Balsam of Fir, and I have never eines been without it in the house. In the worst attack of cold I ever remember having, it gave me relief at once, and with the children we always find it the best and safest remedy. Signed—H. L. PEINE, Zurich. Another writes : I had tried a great many different things, but got no better, and really thought I never would get over it, but your Balsam of Fir oared me entirely. Itis the best cough medicine I ever tried. I recommend it to everyperson -_ I meet needing such a remedy. Signed—THOMAS McCONNELL, Tuckersmith.
