QThe time-worn injunction, "Never put

hacking cough or demoralizing cold with
which you have been struggling for sew
eral days, perhaps weeks. TTake
reliable remedy for it ro-pAV-and let
that remedy be DR.. Boschee's German
Syrup, which has been in use for over
thirtyfve years. A few doses of it will
undoubtedly relieve your cough or cold,
and its continued. use for a few days will
cure you completely. Ono 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 thousands of APP
parently hopeless cases of lung trouble.
