 We need not speak to the public of its virtues- throughout every town, and almost every hamlet of the American States its wonderful cures of pumona- ry complaints have made it already known. Nay, few are the families in any civilized country on this continent without some personal experience of its effects; and fewer yet the communities anywhere which have not among them some living trophy of its victory the subtle and dangerous diseases of the throat and lungs While it is the most powerful antdote yet known to man for the formidable and dangerous diseases of the pulmonary organs it is also the pleaslntcst and safest remedy that can e employed for infants and young persons Parents should have it in store against the nsitious enemy that steals upon them unprepared We have ab,nld- ant grounds to believe the CHERRY PICTORIAL saves more lives by the econsumptionSt it prevents than those it cures. Keep it by you, and cure your colds while they are curabe, neglect them until no human skill master the nexorable canker that fastened on the vitals, eats your life away.
 All know the dreadful fatality of lung disorders. ard as they know too the virtues of this remedy we cd not do than assure them it is still made the best it can bc. We spare no cost no care, no toll to produce it the most perfect possible and thus afford those who rely it the best agent which our skill can furnish for their cure.
