quires them diligently and faithfully to inquire into
all violations of law, and particularly the law
against the illegal sale of intoxicating liquors and
the keeping OF drinking houses and tipping houses
1t is common rn'or e0hich fully believe that the

Is not new claimant for popular conf

saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since it was
first offered to the public.
There is not q household in which this
invaluable remedy has once been in
troduced where its use has ever been
abandoned, and there is not q person
who has ever given it a proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tible of cure, who has not been made
well by it.
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
in numberless instances, cured obstinate
cases of chronic Bronchitis, Larnygitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saved many patients in the earlier stages
of Pulmonary Consumption. It is a
medicine that only requires to be taken in
small doses, is pleasant to the taste, and is
needed in every house where there ara
children, as there is nothing so good as
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL for treat
ment of Group and Whooping Cough.
These are all plain facts, which can be
verified by anybody, and should be re-
membered by everybody.

AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL.
Nothing else gives such immediate relief

of this class. That eminent physician,
Prof. F. Sweetzer, of the Maine Medical
School, Brunswick, Me-, says
"Medical science has produced no other ano-

throat and lungs"
The same opinion is expressed by the

ST have never found, in thirty five years of
continuous study and practice of medicine, any
preparation of SO great value as AYERS CHERRY

and cures severe coughs, but is more effective
than anything else in relieving even the most
serious bronchial and pulmonary affections"
