HEALTHY MOTHERS.

Mothers should always keep in
good bodily health. They owe it to
their children. Yet it is no unusual
sight to see mother, with babe in
arms, coughing violently and exhibit
ing all the symptoms Of consump-
tive tendency. And why should this
dangerous condition exist, dangerous
alike to mother and child, when DR..
Boschee's German Syrup would put a
stop to it at once? No mother should
be without this old and tried remedy
in the house for it's timely use will
promptly cure any lung, throat or
bronchial trouble in her herself or
her children. The worst cough or
cold can be speedily cured by German
Syrup; 80 can hoarseness and con-
gestion of the bronchial tubes. 1t
makes expectoration easy, and gives
instant relief and refreshing rest to
the cough-racked con ,umptive. New
trial bottles, &c.; large size, 75c.

The Stomach is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the man,
because it cannot transform the food
he eats into nourishment. Health
and strength cannot be restored to
any sick man or weak woman without
first restoring health and strength to
the stomach. A weak stomach can
not digest enough food to feed the
tissues and revive the tired and run
down limbs and organs of the body.
