A Safeguard.

The fatal rapidity with which slight
Colds and Coughs frequently develop
into the grayest maladies of the throat
and lungs, is consideration which should
impel every prudent person to keep at
hand, as q household remedy, bottle of
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL.
Nothing else gives such immediate relief
and works SO sure q cure in all affections
of this class. That eminent physician,
Prof. f. Sweetzer, of the Maine Medical
School, Brunswick, Me-, says
"Medical science has produced no other ano-
dyne expectorant SO good as AYERS CHERRY
PICTORIAL. II is invaluable for diseases of the
throat and lungs"
The same opinion is expressed by the
well-hnown Dr.. L. j. Addison, of Chicago,
ILL.,, who says
81 have never found, in thirty.ive years of
continuous study and practice of medicine, any
preparation of SO great value as AYERS CHERRY
PICTORIAL, for treatment of diseases of the
throat and lungs. 1t not only breaks up colds
and cures severe coughs, but is more effective
than anything else in relieving even the most
serious bronchial and pulmonary affections"

AYERS
Cherry PeCtoraI

Is not new claimant for popular conf
dence, but medicine which is to-day
saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since it was
first offered to the public.
There is not household in which this
invaluable remedy has once been in
troduced where its use has ever been
abandoned, and there is not person
who has ever given it q 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. 1t is
medicine that only requires to be taken in
small doses, is pleasant to the taste, and is
needed in every house where there are
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.

road, and W. Il. Sheldon, also a promi.
nent member of that company's engineer
corps, came in on the Pierre coach on
Saturday and registered at the Ameri-
can house. They proceeded to Dead

there visited the Homestake and Green.
wood, and returned to RAPID City to-
day. 10 morrow they will go in com.
pany with Capt. A. j. Simmons to
Harney and the tin mines, and returns
when 1t Is stated, they will separate, one
gong west by the way of Hot Springs
and the other through or around the
northern extremity of the Hills and will
meet on the western side, in Wyoming.
Ihe Sc gentlemen profess to be simply
on tour of observation, which so far
as anything communicated by them Is
concerned, is entirely without any sig
nlhcatlon. But straws show which way
the wind blows. The Chicago, Millwau-
kee d st. Paul railroad has its present
western terminus at Chamberlain, on
the Mlssiourl river, between the Chi.
cago Northwestern railroad on the
north and Sioux City & Pacific on the
south, and it seems that its only natural
and available route west ward is through
the Hills. Explorations, surveys and
estimates by competent engineers have
demonstrated the fact that railroad
can be built through the Hills, in Pen
lngton county, almost as cheaply as
over the same distance on an ordinary
prairie, while the freight and passenger
traffic, as compared with that of a solely
agricultural country, would be beyond
computation. It is not unlikely that
this tour of observation" is in the inter-
est OF the company which these gentle
men represent.
