I was in Massachusetts, and growing worse and be coming unable to attend to my business I re turned home and commenced searching iu earnest for some medicine which would re store my lost healt h. I consulted physicians, I tried manv remedies, but obtained no help, but daily grew worse. I had a terrible cough, and raised a good deal of blood. 1 had pro fuse night sweats, and severe pain in my side. I continued in this state, for months, and became so week that it was wit h great difficulty I could walk, when I was advised to try Wistak's Balsam of Wild ("iierkv, and to my great joy I soon found that thisremedy has arressted the disease. I continued to use the Balsam to the extent of live bottles, and have bince experienced no difficulty of the lungs. I believe the Balsam saved my life, and I shall ever hold it in est imation.
