Caution!

This is not gentle word-but
when you think how liable you are
not to purchase the only remedy
universally known and remedy that
has had the largest sale of any medi-
cine in the world since 1868 for cure
and treatment Of Consumption and
Throat and Lung troubles without
losing its great popularity all these
years, you will be thankful We called
your attention to Boschee's German
Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists
and others that are cheap and good
for light colds perhaps, but for severe
Coughs, Bronchitis, Croup-and es-
peciaily for Consumption, where
there is difficult expectoration and
coughing during the nights and
mornings, there is nothing like Ger
man Syrup. The Is cents size has
just been introduced this year. Regu-
lar size IS cents. At all druggists.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they can

A. Scientific Discovery.

Kodol does for the stomach that
which it ia unable TO do for itself,
even when but slightly disordered or
overloaded. Kodol supplies the
natural juices of digestion and does
the work of the stomach, relaxing
the nevous tension, while the infam-
ed muscles of that organ are allowed
to rest and heal. Kodol digests
what you eat and enables the stom-
ach and digestive organs to trans
form all food into rich, red blood.

prisoner confined within the walls Of
the Tennessee penitentiary, died last
week, latter a long period of suffering
from cancer of the stomach. He
was at one time one of the most
prominent members of the bar OF
the State, and was the author Of sew
eral, legal works Of merit, among
them "King's Digest of the Laws OF
Tennessee book much priced by
the members Of the profession
throughout the State, quotations
from which were used in the prose-
cution against him during the trial
which resulted in his conviction: He
received a, death sentence in 1891
for killing on the streets Of Memphis
D. III. Poston, also a prominent law
yer. His sentence was commuted to
imprisonment for life, and since
that time many efforts have been
made to secure his pardon, all Of
which proved rlnavailing, and fate
decreed that only death should bring
release. fM
