A WARNING.

The modes of deaths approach are
various, and statistics show conclusively
that more persons die from diseases of
the Throat and Lungs that any other. 1t
is probable that everyone, without excep-
ton, receives vast numbers of Tubercle
Germs into the system and where these
germs fall upon suitable soil they start
into life and develop, at first slowly and
is shown by slight tickling sensation in
the throat and If allowed to continue
their ravages they extend to the lungs
producing Consumption and to the head,
causing Catarrh. Now all this is dan
gerous and if allowed to proceed will IN
time cause death. At the onset you must
act with promptness allowing cold to
go without attention is dangerous and
may lose your life. AS soon as you feel
that something is wrong with your
Throat. Lungs or Nostrils, obtain bot.
tie of Boschee's German Syrup. 1t will
give you immediate relief.
