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.
lieyed, were they not proven beyond dispute.
As n remedy it is adequate, on which the public
may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs,
the forerunners of more serious disease, 1t saves
unuumbered lives, and amount of suffering
not to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
yinces the most sceptical Every family should
keep 1t on hand as a protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Affections,
which are easily met at first, but which become
incurabe, and too often fatal, if neglected. Ten
der lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to
be without II. As safeguard to children. amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest of Childhood, CHERRY PEcToRAL
is Invaluable; for, by its timely use, multi
titudes are rescued from premature graves. and
saved to 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 can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful cnemical 1nVestga1on, no cost OF toii
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. 1t may be confidently re-
led upon as possessing all the virtues it has
exhibited, and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.

and much depends On the judicious choice OF a
remedy. The amount Of testimony i'm favor Of
DR.. Schenck's PulmOnic Syrup, a. a cure for
consumption, far exceeds all that can be brought
TO support the pretens.ous Of any other medi-
cine. See DR.. Schenck's Almanac. containing
the certificates OF many persons Of the highest
respectability, who have beenrestored TO health
after being pronounced incurable BY physicians
Of Acknowledged ability. Schenck's PulmOnic
Syrup alone has cured many, as these evidences
viii show but the cure IS often promoted by the
employment OF two other remedies which Dr..
Sehenck provides for the purpose. These addi-
tionaI remedies are Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic
and Mandrake Pills. By the timely use Of these
medicines, according to directions, Dr.. Schenck
certifes that most n case Of consumption may
be cured.

soWING CLOvERsEED on sNow.

a neighbor tells US be has sowed his
clover seed on snow within tie last two
days. The advantage Of this practice
is that one can see where the seed falls,
and distribute it more evenly over the
ground. The plants start early when
the earth is full Of water and pervious
to clover roots, and the farmer gets the
full benefit of all spring rains and
growing weather. The same remarks
apply to sowing all grass seeds. Early
seeding has many advantages. We
would not SOW less than ten pounds Of
clover seed on an acre, or a bushel TO
six acres. 1t viii pay to clean out the
corners Of fences and SOW clover and
grass seed for pasture or to raise seed
for fields. We raise too little grass
seed IN the South, and pay too high
for it.
