THE ORIGINAL AND GENUINE PREPARATION.


ANOTHER HOME CERTIFICATE.


Of all the cures that has ever been recorded, we may safely say the annals of medicine cannot furnish one to surpass this, which now stands as a living proof of the curability of CONSUMP- TION, even when life had been despaired of. DR. SWAYNE'S COMPOUND SYRUP OF WILD CHERRY is all it professes to be, the greatest medicine in the known world.


THE TRUE RICHES OF LIFE IS HEALTH.


DR. SWAYNE-Dear Sir,-For the good of the public, I feel myself in duty bound to testify to the great cure which your Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry performed on me. For my part, I feel as if every body ought to know it. I was afflicted with a violent Cough, Spitting of Blood, Night Sweats, Hoarseness, and sound of the voice indicating an alarming state of disease ; my ap- petite was gone, and my strength had so far failed me that my friends and physician were per- suaded I could not survive many days. My sister, who was my anxious care-taker, made inquiry where she would be likely to procure the most certain relief. She was told that if Dr. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry failed in the cure, my life was then hopeless. Your medicine was immediately procured, and the first bottle gave relief, and by the time I had commenced the sixth bottle, my cough had left me and my strength was much improved. In short, it has made a perfect cure of me, and I am at this present time as hearty a man as I wish, and have good reason to believe that the use of your medicine has saved me from a premature grave. I shall be pleased to give any information respecting my case. Yours with respect,


I. M. REEVES,


No. 38 Chester Street, between Race and Vine Streets, Philadelphia.


CAUTION! CAUTION !!


Avoid all spurious preparations of Wild Cherry, such as Balsams, Bitters, Syrups of Wild Cherry, Pills purporting to contain Wild Cherry, &c., &c., as they are all fictitious and counter- feit, and contain none of the virtues of the original and genuine preparation, as prepared by Dr. H. SWAYNE, and the first ever prepared in this country.


Therefore, invalids, inquire for the original preparation, each bottle of which is enveloped in a beautiful wrapper, with a likeness of Wm. Penn engraved thereon ; also bearing the signature of Dr. H. SWAYNE, the counterfeiting of which will be punished as forgery.
