CONSUMPTION'S WARNING

symptoms.-DR. q. g. GREEN
The aid of scientific inventions is not
needed to determine whether your lungs
are affected. The first symptoms can be
readily noted by anyone of average in
telligence.
There is no disease known that gives SO
many plain warnings of its approach as
consumption, and no serious disease that
can be SO quickly reached and checked,
if the medicine used is Dr. Boschee's
German Syrup, which is made to cure
consumption.
1t is in the early stages that German
Syrup should be taken, when warnings
are given in the cough that won't quit,
The congestion of the bronchial tubes and
the gradual weakening of the lungs, ac-
companied by frequent expectoration.
But no matter how deep-seated your
cough, even if dread consumption has
already attacked your lungs, German
Syrup will surely effect cure--as it has
done before in thousands of apparently
hopeless cases of lung trouble.

75c. At all druggists.
