did what he could to relieve the en-

A continual coughing is very an
noying to persons sitting near you in
any kind of Il gathering; besides, it is
of great damage to the throat and
lungs, and is exceedingly dangerous
at this season of the year. One-half
bottle of Begg's Cherry Cough Syrup
will relieve any ordinary cough, and
this remedy costs no nor than the
inferior grades that are thrown OH
the market to sell at enormous profits.
