perhaps you wonld not think so,
but a very large proportion of dis
eases in New York comes from care
lessness about catching cold," says
DR.. Cyrus Edison. 1t is such sim
pie thing and so common that very
few people, unless it is q case Of
pneumonia, pay any attention to a
cold. New York is one of the
healthiest places on the Atlantic
coast and yet there are a great many
cases Of catarrh and consumption
which have their origin in this neg
lect Of the simplest precaution of ev-
cry day life. The most sensible adj
vice is, when you have one get rid of
it as soon as possible. By all means
do not neglect it, DIR. Edison does
not tell you how to cure a cold but
we will. Take Chamberlain Cough
Remedy. It will relieve the lungs,
aid expectoration, open the secretions
and soon effect permanent cure. 70

Know Thyself.

How important this injunction tc
every young man! How many ruin
their health and future happiness through
pernicious practices contracted in ignor-
ance, and repented of when too late. Par
ents, guardians and humanitarians can
do no. better service to the rising genera
ton than 20 place in their hands the in
formation and warnings contained in a
little book carefully prepared by an As
seciation of medical gentlemen, who
have had vast ex experience in dealingwith
the grave maladies here limited at, and
who feel that they owe it to humanity
TO warn the young Of the land against
certain destructive habits which are far
more prevalent than any layman can
possibly imagine, and which, if persis-
ted in, gradually undermine the consti-
tuition and health and destroy the future
happiness Of the victim. Gut out this
notice, and enclose it with ten cents il
stamps Ito pay postage to Worlds Dis
pensary Medical Association, 6O3 Main
St, Buffalo n r, and the book will be
sent, secure from observation in plain
sealed envelope.
