CHERRY PEcroRAL 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 Consump-
ton, cured by this preparation, are public
ly known. SO remarkable as hardly to be be-
lieved, were they not proven beyond dispute.
As remedy it is adequate, on which the public
may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs,
the forerunners of more serious disease, it saves
unnumbered lives, and an amount Of suffering
not to be computed. It challenges trial, and con.
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand as protection against the early
and unperceived attack Of Pulmonary Affections,
which are easily met ut first, but which become
incurable, and too often fatal, if neglected. Ten
der lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to
be without T.. As safeguard to children. amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest of Childhood, CHERRY PICTORIAL
is invaluable; for, by its timely use. multi
titudes are rescued from premature graves, and
saved te the love and affection centred ON them,
It acts speedily and surely against ordinary Colds
securing sound and health-restoring sleep. No
one will suffer troublesome Influenza and pain
full Bronchitis, when they know how easily
they Gun be cured.
Originally the product Of long. laborious, and
successful chemical Investigation no cost or toll
is spared in making every bottle In the utmost
possible perfection. It may be confidently re-

exhibited, and capable of producing cures a.
memorable as the greatest it has ever enected.
