lishment of fast mail service by the
Southern Railway between Wash

the Southern Railway gives increas-
ed service and better facilities to
the people in this section OF the

ice, they NOT only expedite the
mails, but enable travellers to
reach commercial centers much
quicker than formerly.-St. Louis

A Good Thing.

German Syrup is the special pre-
scription of DR.. A. Boschee, cele-
brated German Physician, and is
acknowledged to be one of the most
fortunate discoveries IN medicine. 1t
quickly cures coughs, colds and all
lung troubles of the severest nature,
removing, as it does, the cause of the
affection and leaving the parts in a
strong and healthy condition. 1t is
not an experimental medicine, but
has stood the test of years, giving
satisfaction in every case, which its
rapidly increasing sale every season
confirms. Two million bottles sold
annually. Boschee's German Syrup
was introduced in the United States
in 1868, and is now sold in every town
and village in the civilized world.
Three doses will relieve any ordinary
cough. Price IS and IS cts. For sale
at Naiiling's drug store.
