PATRICK CONNER, 14, Regent-street, Hunter-street, Old Kent-road, suffered
greatly from a distressingly severe Asthma, demonstrated by its usual
symptoms, extreme difficulty of breathing, which existed, more or less,
for the last ten years. Having heard of the cures produced by this
celebrated Balsam, and being then in a deplorable condition, he resolved
to give it a fair trial. When he commenced taking it, his breath was
very short, so much so, that it was with the greatest difficulty he could
walk about; and his fits of coughing were so violent, and long continued,
that he was in perpetual danger of expiring under the effort. His health
naturally declined, and his flesh wasted away; and to all appearance, he
was rapidly hastening into a decline. In a letter of thanks, he says, “I
bless God, and am truly thankful that I ever heard of your medicine. I
found almost immediate benefit from it; and, as I continued to take it,
my amendment was very rapid. In short, I can now walk about, and breathe
quite easy; and my cough has entirely ceased, and never since returned.”
Happily this is not a solitary case, for a vast number of patients,
similarly affected, have derived equal benefit.

FRANCES HUNT, Little Ebury-street, Pimlico, had from her youth been
subject to shortness of breath, fits of coughing, pain in the side, and
general debility: from taking one cold upon another, and the neglect of a
remedy, these sensations greatly increased in their length and violence,
and at length terminated in the disorder called Asthma. She was
exceedingly ill with the complaint last winter, and continued so at
intervals, throughout the summer—the least exertion frequently
occasioning spitting of blood. The parish surgeon attended, and gave her
medicine, but to no purpose. Having seen an account of the Balsam, and
read a case exactly corresponding with her own, induced her to purchase a
2s. 9d. bottle. She had not taken more than three doses of the medicine
before she felt wonderfully better; the tightness in her chest ceased;
she coughed less frequently; and her health much improved. She purchased
another bottle, and before it was exhausted, she was completely restored
to health.

Two of the children of MARY ANN GORHAM, 3, Queen’s-row, Paradise-row,
were alarmingly ill with Hooping Cough, for which various medicines were
given, without effect, until the Balsamic Elixir was administered. After
they had taken two or three doses each, they found astonishing relief—it
having cleared away from their chests an accumulation of thick phlegm,
and appeased the violence of their coughs. She continued to give the
medicine, as directed, until a second bottle was consumed, when every
symptom disappeared, to the evident surprise of every one who saw the
child.
