Consnnptlves, or those whose lungs affected
slightly, should take this Syrup without DELAY by

avoid IT. Never live day with a cough when this
Syrup can be had, and you are nearly certain
with proper care to avoid destruction by Consump-

that valuable tree which ever introduced to the

by the country being flooded with &c Basams -

out within few days, with Compound Syr-
up of Wild Cherry, clinging still closer the origi
nal name, that persons might be deceived if thew
did not bear in mind the name of DR.. SWAYNE
Therefore the public should be on their guard, and
