LIFE! LIFE! LIFE! SAYJS YOUlT CHILDREN FROM DEATH BY THAT TERRIBLE DISEASE CROUP. MANY TLOUSANDS DIE ANNUALLY. ALL MAY BE SAVED BY GIVING THIM MORTIMER'S CROUP & COUGH MIXTURE IN TIME. Also a valuable remedy for;the Cough, Whoop- ing Cough, Colds, Influenza, Sore Throats, Hoarseness, Diptheria, Fever, and all Affections of the Chest and Lungs. Croup is a disease that mostly attacks young children, and those who have once had it are more susceptible of it than before; but this gradurlly wears off as they grow older. It sometimes ter- minates fatally within twenty-four hours; although when death happens, it more commonly occurs on the fourth or fifth day. It commences usually with a slight cough, hoarseness, and sneezing, as in a common cold; but soon succeeds a peculiar shrill- ness and singing of the voice, as if the sound were sent through a brazen tube; then comes the dread- ful and distressing hard singing, and crowing cough, not unlike the barking of a dog. When this is attended with difficulty of breathing, the case calls for immediate attention, and most active treat- ment. In this stage persons generally begin to get alarmed; but as it comes on mostly in the middle of the right, it often proves fatal, because of the delaj occasioned by waiting until the morning witiout medical aid. The Proprietor having found his CROUP MIXTURE GO efficacious in his own family, and being blessed as a means of restoring his children repeatedly from this appalling disease, he thinks it his duty to parents to give it a greater publicity. He has had already the heartfelt gratitude of many mothers for being the means of restoring their children, tha t were once given up. While we hear of so many deaths from Croup, what a comfort it must be to have such a remedy ready at hand. What love can that mother have towards her child that will not procure for herself what has been such a blessing to others, when it can be obtained at such a trifling amount. The following are a few from TIOUSAIDS OF GENUINE TESTIMONIALS. Llancerdinan Farm, Conwil, Carmarthenshire. DBAR SIR,-I think it is my duty for the sake of other children to inform you that Mortimer's Croup Mixture was the means of saving my child's life after the doctor had given him up. The first dose gave the child relief. He has had a touch of Croup several times since, but the Croup Mixture given in time always prevents a serious attack. Yours respectfully, BENJAMIN THOMAS. 165, Richmond-road, Cardiff. Mr Francis. DRAR SIR,-PleRSO forward per return post a bottle of Mortimer's Croup Mixture. Why do you not have an agent at Cardiff P I was obliged last night to send for a medical man to attend my child, who bad an attack of Croup. Had I Mortimer's Croup Mixture in the house, mcdical aid would have been unnecessary, as I have always warded off a serious attack by giving the Croup Mixture in time. I have used it for many years, and never find it fail. Yours truly, JOHN AARON. Penrhos, Newham-road, Bedford. SIR,—I received the three bottles of Mortimer's Croup and Whooping Cough Mixture. Please seud me twelve more bottles as my children have all got the whooping cough. I find it does them so much more good than anything else. Kindly send by return and oblige. Yours truly, A. REES. Cobden Villa, Ferryside, Carmarthen. Mr Francis. DEAR SIR,-Please send me another bottle of that valuable medicine for children Mortimer's Croup and Cough Mixture. I never like to be with- out it in the house. From long experience I can truly say it is the best medicine I have used for croup, whooping cough, and all other coughs in children. A never failing remedy in an attack of oroup. Yours faithfully, D. T. MORRIS. 66, Miskin-strcet, Cardiff. To Mr W. Francis, Chemist, Carmarthen. Dear Sir,—I have to acknowledge the receipt of the two bottles of Mortimer's Croup and Cough Mixture." I have found this preparation so very effective in cases of croup and severe colds that, during the cold season especially, I always like to have a supply at hand. Wherever there are children at all subject to croup, it is in valuable. I firmly believe that it has on more than one occa- sion saved the lives of some of my children. I am by no means a believer or an advocate of the indis- criminate use of patent medicines, but my experience of "Mortimer's Croup Mixture" has been such that I feel impelled, from a sense of duty to other parents, to send you this voluntary testimony. I am, dear Sir, very faithfully yours, B. G. EVANS. From the Rev. J. Thomas, Baptist Minister, Taber- nacle Villa, Carmarthen. DEAR SIR,-I have great pleasure in testifying to the efficHcyof Mortimer's Croup and Cough Mixture. We always have it in the house and find it most beneficial. Yours truly, J. THOMAS. 22, Francis Terrace, Carmarthen. DBAB. SIR,-Kindly send me a bottle of Mortimer's Croup and Cough Mixture. I cannot understand why you do not give greater publicity to it. I have found it a most excellent remedy in cases of Croup, having given it to my children on several occasions, and have never found it fail. I always recommend it to my friends (having children) as a most valuable medicine to keep in the house in case of emergency, a rule I have always adopted myself since I had occasion to make use of it.
