Dr. Walter Brashear, of St. Mary Parish, La.(an old Ken- tuckian), was a believer in the goose- bone for fifty years before he died. There are many intelligent sugar planters who say the bone has never deceived them. A writer inthe New Orleans’ Picayune says Dy. Brasbar had thirty goose-bones, respecting thirty winters previous to his death, and he had the records of these winters, each record made after the goose-bone had indicatei the weather. He often invited doubters to examine his records and bis prophets, and then decide whether they were false prophets or true. _—_— <a Special Notices.

No other complaints are so insidious {n their attack as those affecting the throat and lungs; none so trifled with by the majority of suffer- ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting perhaps from a trifling or unconscious ex- posure, is often but the beginning of a fata) sickness. AYER’S CHERRY PECTORAL has well proven its efficacy in a forty years’ fight with throat and lung diseases, and should be taken in all cases without delay. A Terrible Cough Cured, “In 1857 I took a severe cold, which affected my iungs. I had a terrible cough, and passed night after . x without sleep. The doctors gave me up. tried AYEK’S CHERRY Prec. TORAL, which relieved my lungs, induced sleep, and afforded me the rest necessary for the recovery of my strength. By the continued use of the PECTORAL a perma- nent cure was effected. I am now 62 years old, hale and hearty, and am satisfied your CHERRY PECTORAL saved me. HORACE FAIRBROTHER,” Rockingham, Vt., July 15, 1882. Croup. — A Mother's Tribute. * While in the country last winter my little boy, three years old, was taken ill with croup; it seemed as if he would die from strangu- lation. Oneof the family suggested the use of AYER’S CHERRY PECTORAL, a bottle of which was always kept in the house. This was tried in small and frequent doses, and to our delight in less than half an hour the little patient was breathing easily. The doc- tor said that the CHERRY PrcToORAL had saved mv darling’s life. Can you wonder at our RTA out . +4 , Murs.
