Hundreds throughout the country are sufer.
ing from various affections of the throat.
Some are only disturbed dnring the changea-
BILE weather of winter and spring, while others
are troubled, more or less, most Of the time.
In some instances an affection of the throat
will exist for long time without getting in
upon the lungs. notwithstanding this slow

there is one case out of ten that will not, If
left slone, gradually grow worse, eventually
reach the lungs, and end In consum otiOn.
After disease Of the throat has existed un-
til the lungs hare become implicated, and

to produce proper sound, until the throat
has frst been cleared. Loud or long talking,
dryness of the throat.
