Coughing Congregation.

Clergymen who are annoyed by fits of
coughing and nasal trumpetings, so com
mon in churches and meeting-houses at this
season of the year, cannot do better than
recommend to the flocks an immediate
resort of HALE's HONEY OF HoREHoUND

taken, will be comparative quiet on the
succeeding Sabbath; for this potent remedy
will by that time have effected general
cure. Many pastors know from experience
the value of the preparation as a cure for
bronchial affections, and can, therefore,
conscientiously indorse it. Sold by
all druggists at so cents and 81. Great saw
