This safe and pleasant remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing else has ever done, and both physicians and patleuts freely concede this fact. I have always said that the greatest object in education is to accustom a young man gradually to be his own master.—Sydney Smith. “I HAVE BEEN AFFLICTED with an affection of the Throat from childhood, caused by diphtheria, and have used various remedies, but have never found anything equal to Brown’s Bronchial Troches.”—Rev.
