until your throat trouble becomes serious.
All bronchial and throat troubles are seri-

Even If your throat trouble has been
neglected until it has been pronounced
pulmonary disease or consumption, do not
hesitate to use the Golden Medical Dis

sufferers themselves, who are now well,
bear evidence that the Golden Medical

Mr.. Cooper came to Van Buren about

usurp front rank in discussions, but
when matters of great Importance
