There are plenty Of people who have
become depressed and discouraged,
because that dry, hacking cough
hangs to them continually. They
have taken much medicine. mostly of
the advertised quack sort, nothing
like Dr. August Koenig's Hamburg
Breast Tea, the discovery of a then
noted German physician 60 years ago.
We do not say that this will cure a
case where the lungs are badly dis
eased. for it will not, and up to this
date there is nothing that will cure
under these conditions; but on the
other hand, If the lungs are not hard
hit. the patient should take DR.. August
Koenig's Hamburg Breast Tea, cup
full every night on going to bed, have
1t hot, drink slowly, then every other
night rub the thrC-. End top portion
of the lungs with st Jacobs Oil, cover
with oil silk, let it remain an hour,
then remove. Ea: good, plain, nour-
ishing food, live in the open air as
much as possible. BY all means sleep
as near out of doors as possible, that
is, windows wide open, except in the
very severe weather. Take a cold
sponge bath every morning; then i'm.
mediately rub the body vigorously
with a coarse towel. Take DR.. August
Koenig's Hamburg Drops every other
day according to directions. One
can buy the three remedies for slips
of any reliable druggist. Begin the
treatment at once and see how much
better you will be almost within a
weeks time. M

Catarrh Poisons.

Catarrh is capable of changing all the
life-giving secretions of the body into
scalding fluids, which destroy and infame
every part they come in contact with. APP
plications to the places affected by catarrh
can do little good save to soothe or quiet
disagreeable symptoms. Hence it is that
gargles. sprays, atomizers and inhalants
only serve as temporary relief. So long as
the irritating secretions of catarrh continue
to be formed so long will the membranes
continue to be infamed, no matter what
treatment is used.
There is but one remedy that has the
desirable effect, and that remedy is
