Consumption Can Be Cured !
Road what Mr. William C. Digges, a merchant of Rowling Green, Va., writes under date April 4th, 1881. He says : I firmly believe that Allen's Lung Balsam will and has cured consumption if taken in time and proper care be taken of the patient both in suitable food and clothing. Six years ago my mother was attacked with pneumonia. The attending physician, “some time after,” told me that the disease had settled on her lungs and that she had Jho consumption. Not believing that a permanent cure" could bo effected, but thinking I might bo able to get an expectorant not containing opium which would ftfford some relief, I inquired of a'druggist at Richmond, Va., if lie lmd any medicine not containing opium, that was a good expectorant. He then recommended Alien’s Rung Balsam, which I purand induced my mother to try. Before she hsll taken the first bottle the improvement in her condition was so marked that I purchased three more bottles. The attending physician, seeing the beneficial effects, recommended its continued use, and in about twelve months her lungs wero pronounced cured. Upon my recommendation many others who had the consumption have been cured. I think you can claim for your medicine the following : Expectoration without irritation, and hea'ing of-the lungs by keeping them free from foreign substances, thus arresting and curing this dread disease. Mr. Digges says ho write* because he wants us to know that Allen’s Lung Bib am is doing good.
