Another great discovery,has been
made, and that too, by a lady in
this country. Disease fastened its
clutches upon -her and for seven
vears she withstood its severest
tests, but her vital organs were un
dermined and death seemed immi

coughed inceesently, and could not
sleep. She finally discovered a way
to recovery, by purchasing of us a
bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery
for consumption, and was so much
relieved on taking the first dose,
that she slept all night; and with
