The modes of death approach are various
and statistics show conclusiyely that more
persons die from diseases of the Throat and
Lungs than any other. 1t is probable that
everyone, without exception, 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 are shown by slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue thsir
raysges they extend to the lungs producing
Consumption and to the head, causing Ca
tarrh. Now all this is dangerous and if al
lowed 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 you your life. As
soon as you feel that something is wrong with
your Throat, Lungs or N0strils, obtain a
bottle of Boschee's German Syrnp. Ii will
give you immediate relief.
