Consumption—is anxious to make known to his fellow sufferers the means of cure.
To all who desire it, he will send a copy of the prescription used (free of
charge), with the directions for preparing and using the same, which they will
find a SURE CURE for CONSUMPTION, ASTHMA, BRONCHITIS, &c. The only object of the
advertiser in sending the Prescription is to benefit the afflicted, and spread
information which he conceives to be invaluable, and he hopes every sufferer
will try his remedy, as it will cost them nothing, and may prove a blessing.
