Poor. unfortunate Batrachian! In what a
sad plight he must have been. And yet his
misfortune was one that often befalls singers.
Many once tuneful voice among those who
belong to the genus homo" is utterly spoiled
by cold in the head" or on the lungs, or both
combined. For the above mentioned " croak-
er" we are not aware that any remedy was
ever devised; but we rejoice TO know that all
human singers may keep their heads clear and
threats in tune by the timely use of DIR. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy and DR.. Pierces Golden Med
ical Discovery, both of which are sold by
druggists.
DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy cures the worst
cases of Catarrh in the Head, no matter of
how long standing, while for all laryngeal,
bronchial, throat and lung affections, DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is posi-
lively uneQualed. 1t cures the worst linger-
ing coughs and builds up the flesh and
strength of those who have been reduced
by wasting diseases. 1t is guaranteed to
benefit or cure in all diseases for which it is
recommended, if taken in time and given a
fair trial, or money paid for it refunded.
