Cough is a symptom by which various dis
| eased conditions of the throat, bronchial
tubes and lungs manifest themselves. But
whether it arises from the irritation produc-
ed in the throat aud larynx by taking cold
from an attack Of Bronchitis, from incipi-
ent Consumption, or from var GUS other
| causes, nothing will lllay it more speedily
nor cure il more permanently than DR..
Pieree's COLLEEN Medical Discovery. il
does not matter whether it be a recent at
tack, or lingering congh, the Discovery is
in eith-r case equally we'll ad ,pted for its
relief and permanent cure. In fact, il will
curr cough in one.half tho time necessary
to cure it with any other medicine, and il
does it, not by drying it up, but by remov-
ing the cause, suhdrng the irritation. and
healing the affected parts. No time should
be lost in commencing the use of a proper
medicine 'or the relief of Co ,gh, for un-
less this course is pui sued, serious and dan
gerous disease of the lungs is liable toresult.
