GATHERS HERB CANDY,

For Coughs, Colds, bronchitis, ASTHMA, etc.
rINHIS INVALUABLE CANDY has the extraordinary
l. property Of Immediately relieving coughs, colds,
hoarseness, difficulty Of breating, b,oncs asthma and
husneS Of The threat Ut operates by dissoving the
gealed phlegm ssqueny ing free expectoraton
Those who troubled with that unpleasant tickling
in the throat which deprves them of rest night
night, by the ncessant cough which proyokes WILL by
using this Candy, find immediate relief.
The subscriber, in presenting this Candy to public
tce wishes to be expressly understood that he
claim for it any miraculous curing properties,
present 1t with long string of certificates of
dalton, as he considers these altogether needless.
This Candy is composed of simple 1grelic,ts pri-
cpdy Of herbs which known to be very ecacous in
the cure of diseases resulting from colds, and of
which, being rather in their natural state
would deter many from resortng to them; but, when
made into candy become palaabe, without losing any
of their valuable properties.
1t has been prepared at the suggestion Of one Of
most eminent physicians, and has been used by many of
his and my personal friends with signal success, and
whose solicitation have been induced to
largely into its manufacture assured by him and them
that when generally known and tried will supersede all
the various cough candies and mixtures now in USE
As for myself am confident, from the ingredients Of
which is composed that, should it effect entire
cure, it do no injury to the most delicate in
eah and therefore have hesitancy in introducing
to the citizens of Washington and vicinity.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Use one stick per day-in the
morning before breakfast in the middle of the day. and
night on going to bed Price 1919 cents.

The Government now pays $500 per mile for carrying

s. 0O0 The undersigned would urge that instead of pay
ing 5000 mile, per anIum the Department should de-
liver, q contract in perpetuity, five $1,000 bonds,
bearing interest Of FIVE per centum At this rate the
charge upon the Department would reduced from $500
to $3.50 n mile, per annum, and the $50 mile saved
would create sinking fund.- which WILL in few years,
pay off the bonds and give the Of such roads forever
thereafter free Of all charge; thereby cffectng vast
saving the present annual expenditures of the Post
Office Department, and consequent reduction Of the
rates of postage.
The effect will be no less advantageous TO Railroad COM
panies than TO the Government For instance, such
contract would give to the Baltimore aud Ohio Railroad

increase Its business and profits.
