neighborhoods, warrant us in saying il is one
of the best, IT no. the rery best Cough Medi-

rery worst case. When all other Cough
preparations have failed, this has relieved
the patient, as Druggists, dealers in
Medicines, and Physicians can testify.
Ask the Agent in your nearest town, what
has been his experience of the effects of this
medicine. If he has been selling it for any
length of time he will tell you. sFt

Our Agent in Pickens District, s. &. Mr..

mends it to his neighbors." lie gives nm
instance of Negro woman, in his vicinity,
who had been suffering with disease of the
Lungs for years, attended with severe cough,
who was relieved by the Liverworth and Tar.
Such are the good reports we hear of
this Medicine from all parts of the South.
For report of the surprising cures it has
performed in the Western and Norhern and
