A Cap,ain,s Fortunate Discovery.

Capt Coleman, schooner Weymouth, plying
between Atlantic City and New York, had
been troubled with a cough so that he was un-
able to sleep and was induced to try DR. Kings
New Discovery for consumption; it not only
gave him instant relief but allayed the extreme
soreness of his breast; his children were simi-
larly affected and single dose had the same
happy effect; DR. Kings New Discovery is
now the standard remedy in the Coleman
household and on board the schooner. Free
trial bottles of this standard remedy at Pat.

acrid, watery discharges from the eyes and

the throat, the swelling of the mucous lining.
causing choking sensations, cough, ringing
noises In the head and splitting head ,chesO
how familiar those symptom are to thouS-
ands who suffer periodically from head colds
or influenza, and who live in ignorance of the
fact tnat a single application of Sanford's
Radical Cure for Catarrh will afford tnstanta-
neOus rel.ef.
But this treatment In cases OF simple catarrh
gives but a faint idea of what this remedy will
do in the cronic FORMS where the breathing is
obstructed by choking, putrid mucous accum-
ulatfons. the hearing affected, smell and taste
gone, throat liberated and hacking cough
gradually fastening itself upon the debilitated
system; then IL is that the marvellous cura-

itself in instantaneous and grateful relief

rapid, radical, permanent, economical, safe.
