he attempt, by searching, to find out God,
and shem detect him, aud bring him back to
the God whose tent was once the tent OF
Shem, see how his cheek suffuses. Ham
alone can brulalize and not blush.
But said thgt these characteristics were
such as would realize the prophecy of Noah,

not only possessed him Of twO-ihirds of the

GATHERS HERB CANDY,

For Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, asthma, etc.
THIS INVALUABLE CANDY has the extraordinary
property of immediately relieving coughs, colds,
hodrSe,eSs, difficulty Of breathing broncts, asthma, and
husReSS The throat 1t operates by dssolying the
gesled phegm consequently Causing free expectoraton
Those who troubled with that unpleasant tickling
in the throat which doprives them of rest night after
night by the inccssant cough which proyokes WILL by
using this Candy, find immediate relief.
The subscriber in presenting this Candy to public no.
cc wishes to be expressly understood that he does not
claim for it any miraculous curing properties, does he
present it with long string Of certificates Of recommen
dation, he considers these altogether needless.
This Candy is composed of sir simple Ingredients i1a
cpdHy Of herbs which known to be very ecacous in
the of diseases resulting from colds, and some Of
which, being rather in their natural state,
would deter many from resorting to them; but, when
made into candy become palatabe, without losing any
of their valuable properties.
1t has been prepared at the suggestion Of one Of or
most eminent Physicians, and has been used by many Of
his my personal friends with signal success, and at
whose solicitation have been induced to enter
largely into its manufacture assured by him and them
that when generally known and tried 1t will supersede all
the various cough candies and mixtures now in use.
As for myself am confident from the ingredients oil
which 1t is imposed, that should 1t not effect entire
cure IL do injury to the most delcde an
health, and therefore have no hesancy in introducing 1t
TO the citizens of Washington and vicinity.
DIRECTIONS PoR USE: Use stick per dny-in the
morning before breakfast in the middle of the day. and at
night on going to bed. Price 12la cents.
