A GENTLE BINT.-In our style of
climate, with its sudden changes of
temperature-rain, wind and sunshine
often intermiDgled in a single day-it
is No wonder that our children, friends
and relatives are so frequently taken
from US by neglected colds, half the
deaths re.ult'ng directly from tins
cause. A bottle OF Boschee's German
Syrup kept about your home for i'm
mediate use will prevent serious sick
ness, large doctors bill, and perhaps
death, by the use Of three or four
doses. For curing consumption, hem
orrhages, pneumonia, severe coughs,
Group or any disease of the throat or
lungs, its success is simply wonderful,
as your druggist will tell you. Ger
man syrup is now sold IN every town
