CLIMATIC CURES.

The influence of climatic conditions
in the cure of consumption is very
much overdrawn. The poor patient,
and the rich patient, too can do much
better at home by proper attention to
food digestion, and a regular use of
German Syrup. Free expeotoration in
the morning is made certain by Ger
man Syrup, so is a good nights rest
and the absence of that weakening
cough and facilitating night sweat.
Restless nights and the exhaustion
due to coughing, the greatest danger
and dread of the consumptive, can be
prevented or stopped by taking Ger.
man Syrup literally and regularly.
Should you be able to go to warmer
cline. you will find that Of the thous-
ands of consumptives there, the few
who are benefited and regain strength
are those who use German Syrup.
