For You to Read “What puzzled me in the beginning was that I kept losing flesh without any cause for it that I could see. I had a little trouble with my stomach, too, and after a while began to grow weaker and to cough. The cough, I thought, would soon go away and cure itself, but it didn’t. It grew worse, and then I began to spit up a pecu liar looking substance. I never thought of consumption, but one day I had a hemorrhage, and then was frightened in earnest and did just what you would do. I rushed to the doctor. He was cither too busy, or something else, for he didn’t do me any good. I kept going on down hill, and the outlook was bad. Things took a_____ 5 different turn, however, when I heard of Acker’s English Remedy for Consumption, for I took it, and it not only cured my cough ing and spitting, but also built up my whole system. I took on per manent flesh, and today am just as healthy a man as you can find in a week’s travel. You may be sure I always keep Acker’s Eng lish Remedy in the house, and it is a good thing I do so, for one night my youngest child was seized with croup. That hoarse, wheezy cough was the first signal, and I lost no time in giving the poor liltle sufferer proper doses of this grand medicine. In almost no time the disease was under control, and my child was saved. I advise every parent to have a bottle handy all the time. It serves the same purpose in keeping croup out of the house that a good lock and key serve to keep burglars out. It is both an expectorant and a tonic. It cured me of con sumption and my child of croup, and I know what I am talking about.’’ (Signed) Hon. M. H ogan , picture frame manufacturer, 242 Center Street, New York.
