Dear Sirs,—You askead me to write in three weeks’ time and let yon know the effect of your medicine, but I neglected doing so; but I am glad to be able to tell you now that I am very much better. I used the Sp!rometer for two months, accord- ing to directicns, when my cough was almost entirely gove, Since that time I have not used it very regularly, but have been very punctual in batiiing in the salt and water, which I think has beena great benifit, 1 will use the Spirometer again, regularly, now, while the medicine l*sts,and do not think I will require any more,

Yours, very respectfully, (Signe) MRS. G, D, HEWSON, Truro, N.8., July, 1883. Dr, M. Sevvitte & Co-:
