HOW MEN DIE.

II we know all the methods OF approach adopt
ed by an enemy we are the better enabled to ward
of the danger and postpone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable. In many instances
the inherent strength of the body sufices to ena-
BILE it to oppos the tendency toward death. Many
however, have lost these forces to such an extent
that there is little or no help. In other cases,
little aid to the weakened Lungs " i'll make all
the difference between sudden death and many
years Of useful life. Upon the first symptoms OF
a Cough, Cold, or any trouble OF the Throat or
Lungs, give that old and well known remedy
Boschecs German Syrup, careful trial. 1t will
prove, what thousands say OF it, to be the "bene-
factor OF any home.v nov1-diycT

Are the best months in which to purify your

absolutely necessary. Hoods Sarsaparilla Is
