LIONS ABoUr.-It is a dangerous thing
to tritle with cold. A daIkey preacher
once told his hearers that he thanked God,
THAT the devil went about as roaring
lion, seeking whom he might devour. He
might catch poor fellow who didn't know
that he was near him; but when he heard
;he roar lie could get cut of the way; if he
didn't, he deserved to die" SO when one
hears the wheeze or the cough which tells
Of the old lion of Consumption lurking

aud successful career of DIR. WIsHARTs
PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL, as contrasted
with the speedy collapse of nostrums devoid
of efficacy which have from time to time
been pulled into a brief notoriety during
the twenty odd years that this celebrated
medicine has been sold, affords proof
that the American public continues to re-
pose lis confidence in deserving articles
only. The PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL has
long been recognized as the leading specific
for Consumption, Bronchitis, Diptheria,
Coughs, Colds Asthma, and all other dis
eases of the bl eathing organs. 1t is, more
over, a certain, speedy, and safe botanic
remedy for Dyspepsia, Liver Disorders
Scrotuous Affections, Constipation, Url
nary Troubles, Gravel, Dropsy, Debility,
and Female Complaints. Constantly accu,
mulatng evidence of an uuimpeachable
character establishes the fact that it not

is remarkably prompt and thorough. The
