For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping

fl such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
iH Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma, -
and Consumption. NJ
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won so widely and SO deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series of years, and among most of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their estima-
ton, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the Lungs and throat, have made it known
liable protector against them. While adapted to
milder forms of disease and to young children il is
at the same time the most efIectua remedy thai can
be given for ncipient consumption, and the dam
gerOus affections of the throat and lungs. AS pro-
vision against sudden attacks of CrOu1, it should
be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in
durable, still great numbers of cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry PectOrGI. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee
toraL they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro.
lection from it.
asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry Pecf0ral in small and frequent doses.
So generally are its virtues known that we need
not pubsh the certificates of them here, or do more
than assure the public that its qualities are fully

1t is important that when the eye is being used,
the crystalline should remain in passive state.
If an effort is made to read with glasses too strong

When in its normal condition, the eye is capable OF
seeing near as well as remote objects. This is ac-
complished through the accommodating action of
the crystalline lens, which becomes more or less re-
fracve according 10 the direction in which rays of
light enter the eye-whether parallel or divergent
When presbJopia comes on, which results in what
is called "far-sightedness, the crystalline becomes
incapable of uniting divergent rays upon the retina
and they would, if continued, meet at point be-
hind it. In the myopic near.sighted eye the
eongaion of the ball and the high retroactive power
of the cornea bring the rays to focus in front of
the retina. Both of these results are wholly ncom-
patibe with distinct vision, which is only produced
when the rays are brought to focus on the retina
The object sought then in fitting glasses, whether
for near or far sIghedness, is to bring the rays to
focus exactly on the retina without calling into ex-
ercise The accommodative action of the cry stallipe
