The Funerea, Month Of March.

An observant metropolitan barber says
that he can tell ones physical condition BY
the state Of the hairl
The BIBLE tells US that with his hair gone
Samson lost his strength. The Romans
considered badness serious affection and
Juuus Caesar was never quite satisfied with
himself because his poll was bare.
The face, however, is the open book and
one can readily trace in its various express
slons, lines, changes and complexion the
state OF the system.
The eye that is unusually bright and yet
has pallid brightness, the face upon
whose checks nature paints rose of sim
gular beauty and flush, more marked in con-
trast with the alabaster appearance of the
forehead and nose and lower part Of the
face, Is one Of those whom the skilled phy-
sician will tell you will some day dread
the funereal month of March, becau 50 il
is then that consumption reaps it's richest
harvest. Consumption they tell US is caused
by this, that and the other thing, by mi
crobes in the air, by micro organisms in
the blood, by deficient nutrition, by thou
sand and one things, but whatever the cause.
decay begins with a cough and the remedy
that will efectually stop the cause of that
cough cures the disease of the lungs.
That is all there is Of it.
The cough is an evidence Of a wasting.
To stop it effectually, remedy must be
used that will search out the cause, re-
move that and then heal the lung and do
away with the cough: This is the power,
special to itself, possessed alone by War
uer's Log Cabin Cough and Consumption
remedy. This is no new-fangled notion Of
narcotics and poisons, but an old-fash-
toned preparation of balsams, roots and
herbs, such as was used by our ancestors
many years ago, the formula of which has
been secured exclusively by the present
manufacturers at great trouble and expense.
It is not a mere cold dryer. It is a system
searcher and upbuilder and a consumption
expellant. Where others fail, it wins, be-
cause it gets at the constitutional cause and
removes it from the system.
J. W. Hensaw of Greensboro, Pa, on Jan
Is, 1888, reported that The had derived
more real benefit for the length of time,
from Warmers Log Cabin Cough and Con-
sumption remedy than he had for years
from the best state physicians"
If you have cough, night sweats, "posi-
tive assurance in your own mind that
you, oh-you, have no consumption"
and yet lose flesh, appetite, courage, as
your lungs waste away, you may know that
soon the funereal month Of March will
claim you, unless promptly and faithfully
you use the article named. If other rem
edies have failed try this one thoroughly.
If others are offered, insist the more on
trying this unequaled preparation.
Some persons are prone to consumption
and they should never allow the disease to
become seated.
