The soothing, bealing and strengthening properties of Angier's Emulsion make it invaluable for the relief and cure: of troublesome conghs, bronchitis, asthma and all infaminatory and catarrhal affections of roat and chest. It not only heal and strengthens the lungs, but it keeps the digestive organs in: a healthy condition and exerts a most invigorating tonic influence. upon the general health. Angier's is the most palatable of all einulsions and agrees perfectly with delicate stomachs.
ANGIERS EMULSION
"A HOUSEHOLD REMEDY. FOR CHEST COMPLAINTS."
The Vicarage, South Benfleet. Dear Sirs,--Several years ago, while suffering from an obstinate attack of bronchitis, and after being rendered ex- credingly uncomfortable by the pre- longed and regular use of creosote. I. was advised to wry Angier's Emulsion, which I did; with the resait that it gave speedy relief and clearance. Since then I have rarely been without thin excellent remedy in the Vicarage. I have recom- mended it to many of my parishioners, with the result that it is now used in. many homes as a household remedy for throat and chest complaints.
