HOW MEN DIE.

If we know all the methods of approach
adopted by an enemy we are the better enabled
to ward off the danger and postpone the mo-
ment when surrender becomes inevitable. In
many instances the inherit strength of the bo-
dy suffices to enable it to oppose the tendency
toward death. Many however have lost these
forces to such an extent that there is little or
no help. In other cases a little aid to the
weakened Lungs will make all the difference
between sudden death and many years of use
full life. Upon the first symptoms of a Cough,
Cold or any trouble of the Throat Lungs,
give that old and well-known remedy-Bos
chee's German Syrup, a careful trial. 1t will
prove what thousands say of it to be, the chem
efactor OF any family"
