Cherry PectOraI

the most effective remedy for coughs
of every kind and in every stage.
One Of the most annoying coughs is
. throat cough, where you have that
constant tickling in your throat 1t
comes on worse at night, keeps you
awake, and makes you have that
smothered feeling in the chest. 1t
hardly seems possible what one dose
Of Cherry Pectoral will do for this
kind of cough, it brings such marked
relief.
Put up in large and small bottles.
When the cough gets down deep in
the chest and the lungs are painful,
put one of Ayers Cherry Pectoral
Plasters directly over the tender lung.
It will draw out all the soreness.
