For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,

Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and COnsunDtiOn,


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 III their estima
ton, as il has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat have made 1t known as re-
liable protector against them. While adapted to
mlder forms of disease and to young children, 1t is
at the time the most enectual remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan
gcr0us affections of the throat and lungs. AS pro-
vision against sudden attacks of CFOap. 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 antidute for them.
Although settled Consumption il thought in
crabe, still great numbers of cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored 10 sound health by the
Cherry PecfOrai. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders Of the Lungs and Throat that
the most obstinate of them yield to II. When moth
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee

That some one sang for me summer day
For me, to me. before he went his way.

And sing the song sing from day to day.
