STRANGE ADVICE!

GIN our Almanac for many years past We
have given unusual advice to those attic
ted with coughs, colds, throat or lung
troubles or consumption. We have told
them if they did not receive any special
benefit after the use of one 75-cent size
bottle of German Syrup, to consult their
doctor Owe did not ask them or urge
them to use a large number Of bottles, as
is the case in the advertising Of many
other remedies. Our confidence in Ger
man Syrup makes it possible for us to
give such advice. Owe know by the ex-
perience of over IS years that one z5-cent
bottle of German Syrup will speedily re-
ieve or cure the worst coughs, colds,
bronchial or lung troubles and that,
even in bad cases of consumption, one
large bottle Of German Syrup will work
ular size, 75c. AT ell druggists.
