No other medicine in the world was
ever given such test of it's curative
qualities as Boschee's German Syrup.
In three years two million four hun
dred thousand small bottles of this
medicine were distributed free of charge
by Druggists in this country to those
affected with consumption, asthma,
Group, severe coughs, pneumonia and
other diseases Of the Throat and Lungs,
giving the American people undenia-
bic proof that German Syrup will cure
them. The result has been that Drug
gists in every town and village in the
United States are recommending it to
their customers. Go to your Drug
gist, and ask what they know about it.
Sample Bottles 10 cents. Regular
size rs cents. Three doses will relieve
