"DO 1T TODAY. ("

The time worn injunction, Never
put off til tomorrow what you can do
today" is now generally presented in
this form: "Do it today" That is
the terse advice we want to give , on
about that hacking cough or demoral'
izing cold with which you have been
struggling for several days, perhaps
weeks. Take some reliable remedy
for it today-and let that remedy be
DR.. Boschee's German Syrup, which
has been in use for over thirty five
years. A few doses of 1t will un-
doubtedly relieve your cough or cold,
and its continued use for . few days
will cure you completely. No matter
how deep seated your cough, even if
dread consumption has attacked your
lungs, German Syrup will surely effect
a cure-as it has done before In thous-
ands of apparently hopeless cases of
lung trouble. New trial bottles, 25c I;
regular size, 700. At all druggists.
