PRISONERS GET
 ''D0PE" FROM
 COUCH REMEDY
Sheriff Finds Drug Victims Novel Source of
 Supply

--=Any so-called cough cures offered to the public are heavily loaded with chloroform, opium, morphine, codeine and other narcotic drugs to such an extent that several prisoners of tthe Suffolk County jail at Boston got the dugs their appetite craved by pretend ing to the sheriff that they had severe coughs, according to the Boston ps=-. of June [, 1916.
 These dangerous habit-forming drugs do have a temporary effect on the cough but they do not have iast- ing effect and soon the cough comes back worse than evef. Doctors sound a warning against these preparations. A safe sane treatment for a cough O.. cold is Father Johns Medicine because it is guaranteed free from any of these dangerous drugs or alcohol and has 8 record of more than 60 years success as family remedy in thousands of homes. Because of it's wholesome purity it is safe for all the family. 1t soothes the throat and breathing pas- sages, relieves the cough by getting at the cause, drives out the impurities by means of it's gentle laxative effect and builds up renewed strength because of its wholesome food elements.--Adu
