A WAR; MING.

The modes of deaths approach are various, and
statistics show conclusyely that more persons die
from diseases of the Throat and Lungs than any
other. 1t is probable that everyone, without ex-
ception, 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 sem
sation 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 dangerous, and if allowed to pro-
coed will, in time, cause death. At the onset you
must act with promptness; allowing cold to go
without attention is dangerous, and may lose you
your life. AS soon as you feel that something is
wrong with your Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, OBJ
tain bottle of Boschee's German Syrup 1t will
give you immediate relief. nov6-d1y-cT
