efforts. Over and beyond proper sense of

The Death rata nf

Our country is getting to be fearfully
alarming, the average of life being les
sened every year, without aay reasonable
cause, death resulting generally from the
most insignificant origin. At this season
of the year especially, cold is such a
common thing that in the hurry of every
day life we are apt 10 overlook the dangers
attending it and often ind too late, that q
Fever or Lung trouble has already set in.
Thousands lose their lives in this way
every winter, while had Boskees German
Syrup been taken, cure would have
resulted, and a large bill from Doctor
been avoided. For all diseases of the
Throat and Lungs, Bosaess German Syrup
has proven itself to be the greatest dis
eovery of it's kind in medicine. Every
Druggist in this country will tell you OF
its wonderful effect. Over go, 900 bottles
sold last year without a single failure
