RICHARD THoMpsoN,s LIFE PREsE

Is found in practice 20 cure
Coughs. Colds, Rheumatism, Group, Uhoop-
ing cough, Hemorrhage, and Splitting Blood.
WAsHlsGros March 6, l64l.
DEAR Sin Upon your renewed request, cannot
with Justice any longer withhold from you my certi-
icae of confidence in the efficacy Of the Life Pre-
server as a cure for hoarseness and cough
In the fall Of 1910 was much exposed to night
air. and often took cold, which was attended by
hoarseness and slight cough, without fever or much
other indisposition. In December was scarcely ev-
err free from this complaint and during the early part
of the next February was never without some de-
gree of hoarseness cough until, desparng oil the
sulliciency of Pease's Hoarhound Candy, and com
mon remedies, was induced to make trial OF your
life Preserver. Before the middle OF March last,
the use Of your medicine seemed 10 be the great
cause of relief from the hoarseness and slight cough
which had so long annoyed me, and which all the
usual remedies had failed to remove.
If any one be led to make the experiment, as l
did SO happily of the offered good he will at least
find in as pleasant and harmless physc as can be
administered in the mode prescribed by YOU
I am, very respectfully yours,
JOHN LEEDS KERR.
Mr.. RICHARD THOMPSON.

The fall is decidedly the best season
for transplan:ing all kinds OF hardy trees.
though this is contrary to tie general
opinion throughout tho country. Many
say they have never succeeded so we'll in

Many persons possessing a heavy clay

In stiff adhesive soils the .uhso:l should
