TROUBLE
/'PsycwNK" differs radically from
the old, fogey medicines. It is compounded on new, and." advanced
methods of curing disease, otherwise
it would be just like scores of others,
without any exceptional' merits.
But "Psychine" possesses virtues,
of healing, that no other preparation in the,world does.
" \\, There nevcrTTas been in the lilstorycf medicino; such
a truly remarkable remedy, for the prompt and complete!;
curi* of obstinate coughs and lung trouble.:, There is
"noting else just  like   it, or nothing else oitc  half
so-good.    Thousands of men and women  rcnclily and
cnthuciasticnlly give testimony to prove thc stutemorit.
