Many valuable discoveries and much use- ful knowledge is kept from the world, be cause of the immense expense in making them known to the people. This is not the ease with Boschees German Syrup, although but a few years introduced into this ¢coun- try, its sale now reaches in every town and village in the U. 8. Its wonderful success in curing Consumption, severe Coughs, Pneumonia, Asthma, and all ether diseases of the throat and lungs, was first made known by distributing every year, for three years, over 40),000 bottles to the afflicted, free of charge, by Druggists. No such atest of merit was ever given before to any other preparation. Could you ask more? Goto your druggist and get a bottle for 75 cents, jand try it. Sample bottles 10 cents. \
