A REMARKABLE REsULT.-1t makes no
difference how many Physicians, or how
much medicine you have tried, it is now an
established fact that German Syrup is the
only remedy which has given complete sat-
isfaction in severe cases of Lung Diseases.
1t is true there are yet thousands of per
sons who are predisposed to Throat and
Lung Affections, Consumption, Hemor-
rhages, Asthma, Severe Colds settled on
the Breast, Pneumonia Whooping Cough,
&c, who have no personal knowledge of
Boschee's German Syrup. To such we
would say that sc, 900 dozen were sold last
year without one complaint. Consump-
tives try just one bottle. Regular size 10
cents. Sold by all Druggists in America.

others. to DO arbitrary and selfish action on tho
part OF It's Board Of Directors refor to the order
that took effect on the 23d inst, and which substitutes
long, cumbrous slip OF paper printed the form Of
''coupon tickets" for tho much convenient
form previously sold by that company and used by
patrons aud also requiring those using It to tear
coupon thersrom IN the presence OF the ticket ro-
cever when desiring 10 cross any Of the ferries This
action the part OF the Board, by It's delegated
authority, has been with tho avowed intention OF re-
heving me company's patrons from what they con-
slider tho annoyance oil u number OF little fellows
in some cases old and nhrm persons OF both
sexes, who nave, by rotating the tickets formerly
issued IN lunches OF sixteen with the privilege OF
tree passage, been enabled to make profit OF nine
cents, and thus add little to their meagre incomes.
This, maintain, was no more an annoyance than u
the sale vi newspapers or any other
tice; do believe IL materially affected the inter-
ests Of the company or decreased It's receipts IN

chased by class OF people who preferred to give the
