H, ISiiti. Rev. W. Harrison— Dear Sir:—I have suffer- ed two years and eight mouths wilh bronchial consumption, doctoring most ot the lime, but to no effect, I had hectic lever, night sweats, coughed and raised a great deal. My voice was gone so I could nor. speak above a whisper. I was so reduced that I Viiis confined to my bed. My doctor told mc lliat he could do no more for me, 1ml spoke to me about your medicine, recommending it very highly. I sent for one package of the, medicine, and after using two packages I felt so much better that I resolved to give it u fair trial. By the time I had taken eight packages I felt (juile well, and was able lo do some work. Your medicine has worked wonders with me. My husband and neighbors gave me up to die, hut through a kind provi- dence and the help of your medicine. I was re- stored to health again. My voice is nearly as stiong as ever, and my general health ia better than it has been for years. If is more astonish- ing for n person of my ngc (uhich is fifty-five) to he cured of consumption. My daughter has ulso been cured of bronchitis. She would, in all probability, have been in her grave, had it not been for the timely aid of your medicine.— Please accept my warmest thrjiks. I remain yours truly, MARY DAVIS, From Mrs. Ann Mayhew the Postmaster's Mother MARCY, Oneida Co., N. Y., Dec. 4, 1805. Rev. W. Harrison—Dear Sir;—I am very grateful to you for the benefit I have received from your superior medicine. I feel that I cannot speak too highly of its merits. One year ago the present month, my neighbors remarked to my daughter-in-law, that I would never see another Thanksgiving Day,\ that I was in the last, stage of Consumption. I employed phy- sicians, hut they gave me no ercouragement. A friend wno had formerly lived in Rome, told my eon of your medicine; he went to Rome and procured from you two packages of the same. I began to take it, and in a short time I was able to attend to my household duties, and spin flax, &c. My family was surprised to'see what a change had been wrought in s o short a time. I feci as though it is almost a miracle, considering my age, which is sixty seven, and suffered so many years with catarrh. I would recommend your medicine to all who may be inclined to coughs and catarrh. ANN 4. MAYHEW. From Kcv. A. C. Woodard, B. R. Conference. MASSKNA, St.Lawrencc Co., N.Y., Nov 18,'65. Rev. W. Harrison—Dear Brother:—This is to certify that I have been afflicted with bron- chitis and citarrh for about twelve years; at times it was very troublesome. Lost Christ- mas Eve I took a severe cold, and in a few days was nearly prostrated. 1 coughed a great dea| night and day, raised bad looking matti r, pain through my chest and lungs. My flesh was wasting away rapidly, and many supposed that my work was done. I ordered one package of your medicine und took it, but did not realize much benefit. I was determined to give it a fair tiiul, and took three packages, experienc- ing great benefit. Although I am not cured, vet I am better than I havo been for five years past, and I believe it is the best medicine ever offered to the afflicted, for throat and lung dif- ficulties, '. C.

NICKRLSON'S CHEESE CURING AND PACKING CASE! rpHIS CASE is simply constructed, and w'th _L in the reach of any individual to make The cheese is cured in a \w>p instead of bandage, the hoopserving as a permnnei.toov- eriegfor the circumference of the cheese, and in connection with a cover at each end as a box for turning, for storage and transportation, or the same hoops and covers will serve instead of bandage for many years. This hoop is far better than a cloth bandage for several reasons: The cheese dries equally und does not dry out or become hard for a dis- tance in from the circumference, all'the ex- pense of the cloth is saved, as a box must be provided in any event for transporting'cheeso; preserves its shape, the circumference being perpendicular; there is less shrinkage or loss in weight, and it is less troublo to take care of the cheese; there is no danger of mould, as there is no bandage of cloth for it to collect about; the cheese are more sightly. The undersigned having patented the above Cheeso Case, will sell or lease Factory, Town, County or Stato Rights to make and use the Cheese Curing and Packing Case.
