Advertising -- History
THE very great esteem in which this Preparation is held in, and the
general knowledge of the effects of the plant from which it is
extracted, renders an account of its medicinal properties almost
unnecessary. In all phthsical and hectic disorders, complaints of the
lungs, and breast coughs, colds, and asthmatic affections, there
cannot be a better or (and what particularly recommends it) a more
agreeable remedy. It also effectually clears the organs of speech, by
removing that viscid phlegm which prevents a due extent of the voice;
in short, it is a medicine of very singular pectoral qualities, and
will not fail of giving relief in every disorder to which the lungs
are subject to.
Sold in Boxes, One Shilling each; small ditto, 6d.
