THIS remedy has won for itself such notoriety
from its cures of every variety of pulmonary disease.
that it is entirely unnecessary TO recount the evil
dences of its virtues in any community where 1t
has been employed. So wide is the field of its use
fulness, and so numerous the cases OF its cures,
THAI almost every section Of the country abounds
in persons publicly known. who have been restored
from alarming and even desperate diseases Of the
lungs by its use. When once tried its superiority
over every other medicine Of its kind is too appar-
ent to escape observation, and where its virtues are
known, the public no longer hesitate what antidote
to employ for the distressing and dangerous atfec-
tions of the pulmonary organs which are incident
TO our climate. And not only in formidable at
tacks upon the lungs, but for the milder varieties
of COLDS, CoUGHs, HoARsENEss, &c. and for
CHILDREN il is the pleasantcst and safest medicine
that can be obtained.
As il has long been in constant use throughout
this section, we need not do more than assure tho
people its quality is kept up to the best that it ever
has been, and that the genuine article is bold by

being the o. at on which this rule was enforced,
they deeM ed 1t proper doubt, to ignore this prac-

The IRE companies were quickly on the spot, and
rendered as ual, active service. The scansy sup
ply of water marred operations considerably In the
b. ginning, hut when the engines were once in play
they got ON admirably. The prison had mirscu-
lOus escape. Il was literally enveloped in perpe-
tual shower OF sparks, and betimes was almost
touched by the main current Of the flames which
issued from the ruins. The wind blew the flames
directly towards IT, but owing, fortunately, TO les
freproof nature, it escaped. Had the fire taken
hold upon this building, there would be no posi-.
bility of faving the c0nvicts except by permitting
81 EN- to escape at pleasure.
This il the second fire that has occurred in this
buicinR since It was erected. The first took place
on The 10Th of August, 1928. 1t has been happily
tree from any disaster Of the kind since then, until
now.
