Climatic Cures.
April 2I..4t.

The influence of climatic condi- tions in the cure of consumption is very much overdrawn. The poor patient and the rich patient, too, can do much at home by prop CT attention to food digestion, and a regular use of German Syrup. Free approximation in the morn ing is made certain by German Syrup, so is a good nights rest and the absence of that weak ening cough and facilitating night sweat. Restless nights and the ex- haustion due to coughing, the greatest danger and dread of the eonsumptiye, can be prevented or stopped by taking German Syrup liberaIY and regularly. Should you be able to go to warmer cline, you will find that of the thousands of eonsumptives there, the few who are benefited and re gain strength are those who use German Syrup Trial bottles, 25e; regular size, 75c.
