A VERY REMARKABLE SToRY.-Tbere
lived in Brooklyn, not long ago, a man
possessed of devil. He had inherited the
devil from his father, in the first place, and
had nursed 1t until it grew so strong it took
entire possession Of him. The devil was a
very familiar one, and its name was Rum.
The man had many noble instincts, aud
better than all these, he had loving faith
full, wife, who made skilful war upon the
demon, her husbands master. Recognize
ing the fact that her husband was under an
overpowering impulse, that he longed and
struggled Inanfuly to free himself from the
passion for drink, she bent all the energies
of her woman-nature TO the task Of helping
him. She loved and suffered and toiled
until at last the loving and suffering and
toiling accomplished their purpose. She
took her husband by the hand, aud shared
with him his struggle, until, after years of
labor, sue overcame his devil, and saw him
free man again. Her battle with Rum
had been fierce one, taxing and wasting
her strength sorely, but she was conqueror
at last. Her husband stood upon manly
feet, and showed no sign of falling again.
Several years passed away, and this re-
formed man fell i'll of consumption. The
distinguished physician, from whose lips
we have the story, prescribed alcoholic
stimulants as the only means possible of
prolonging his life. The poor wife was
in terror, and begged the physician to
recall the prescription. She told him of her
long struggle and her victory, and said she
preferred that her husband should die then
a sober man, than that he should fill
drunkard's grave year later. But the freed
spirit of tho man was strong, and he I'M
dertook to take alcoholic liquors as a medl-
cine, and TO confine himself absolutely to
such times and measures in the matter as
the physicians should prescribe. This he
did, aud during the months thus added to

zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consumption,
cured by this preparation, are publicly known,
so remarkable as hardly to be believed, were
they not proven beyond dispute. As q remedy,
it is adequate, on which the public may rely
for full protection. By curing Coughs, the
forerunners Of more serious disease, it saves I'M
numbered lives, and an amount of suffering not
to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand as a protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Alice
tions, which are easily met at first but which
become incurable, and too often fatal, if neg
lectcd. Tender lungs need this defence; and it
is unwsc to be without it. As safeguard 10
children, amid the distressing diseases which
beset the Throat and Chest of childhood CHERRY
PICTORIAL is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued from premature graves,
and saved to the love and affection centred on
them. 1t acts speedily and surely against ord
nary colds, securing sound and health-restoring
sleep. No one will suffer troublesome Inf1u-
enza and painful Bronchitis, when they know
how easily they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigations no cost or toll
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. 1t may be confidently relied
exhibited and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.
