The second compartment contains the device of a shield, upon which is the representation of a North American Indian. Around the sides and lower portion of the shield is a ribbon bearing the motto “Ense pet placid libertate ui etem”; and above the shield is an eagle with outspread wings holding a ribbon in its beak. In the upper portion of the compartment is a scroll bearing the name “Brown’s,” and in the lower portion of the compartment is another scroll bearing the words “Bronchial Troches.” The remainder of the compartment is filled up with scrollwork. The third compartment contains the signature “John I. Brown & Son” within an oblong scroll border or frame. Each of the above three compartments has pyramidal-shaped ends containing scrollwork. The fourth compartment contains the words “Brown’s Bronchial Troches for the alleviation of Bronchitis, Hoarseness, Coughs, Asthma, Colds, Catarrh, and all disorders of the breath and lungs. John I. Brown & Sons, Boston, U.S.A., Proprietors. Public speakers and singers will find the Troches invaluable for clearing and strengthening the voice. There are no particular directions to be observed in the use of them. Containing nothing deleterious they can be taken as freely as requisite. One or two lozenges dissolved gradually in the mouth, repeating if necessary, will almost invariably give immediate relief in many cases of hoarseness, or loss of voice, coughs, irritation or soreness of the throat, etc., occasioned by cold or unusual exertion of the vocal organs. For Bronchitis, asthma, etc., of long standing it will be necessary to take them frequently as occasion requires.”

No. 2 consists of the name and words “Brown’s Bronchial Troches.”

Nature of the Article to which it is intended such Trade Marks shall apply.

A medicinal preparation for human use.
