' For the Speedy Relief AND PERMANENT CURE OF Consumption, Bronchitis, Aslhrua, Cold?, And all Diseases of the Liings, Chest, or Throat, THE EXPECTORANT is composed exclnaivew ly of Herbal and Mucilaginous products, which PERMEATE THE VERY SUBSTAlKSf OF THE LUNGS, causing them to thr?w. off th? acrid matter which collects in the Bronchi*! Tubes, and at the same time forms a soothing coating, relieving the irritation which produce* tho cough. The object to be obtained is to cleanse tho ?r gan of all impurities; to nourish and strengthen it when it has become impaired and enfeebled by disease ; to renew and invigorate the circulation of the blood, and strengthen the nervous organi* zalion. Tho EXPECTORANT does this to .an a# tonishing degree. It is active but mild and CDff genial, imparting functional energy and'naturaf strength. It affords Oxygen to vitalize the blood/ and Nitrogen to assimilate the matter?it EQUAL? IZES the "NERVOUS INFLUENCE," producing quiet and composure. TO COXS?MPTIYES It is invaluable, as it immediately relieves the difficult breathing and ?arrassing cough which at? tends that disease. FOB ASTHMA It is a specific?one dose often relieving the disK tressing choking, and producing calm, and pleas? ant repose. FOR CROUP No mother should ever be without a bottle of the EXPECTORANT in the house. We have numer? ous certificates of its having relieved, almost in" stantly, the little sufferer, when death appeared^ almost inevitable. Mothers l>o Advised t Keep it on Hand!, This dread disease requires prompt action; a? soon as the hoarse, hollow cough is heard, apply the remedy, and it is easily subdued; BUT DELAY JS DANGEROUS* JST The properties of the EXPECTORANT are demulcent, nutritive, balsamic, soothing, and1 healing. It braces the nervous system and pro duces pleasant and refreshing sleep. It ExMIarates and Relieves Gloominess and Depression.
