First 3 days of the week at Preble; last three days of week at the Conrad farm near Freidheim. Terms —$15.00 to insure colt to stand and suck. 76 — August Conrad The News—No Pure Food. Drug Cough Cure Laws would be needed, if all cough cures were like Dr. Shoop's Cough Cure is—and has been for 29 years. The National law now requires that if any poisons enter into a cough mixture, it must be printed on the label or package. For this reason mothers and others, should insist on having Dr. Shoops Cough Cure. No poison marks on Dr. Shoop’s labels — and none in the medicine, also .t must by law, be on the label. And ft’s not only safe, but it is said to be by those who know it best, a truly remarkable cough remedy. Take no chance, particularly with your children. Insist on having Dr. Shoop's Cough Cure. Compare carefully the Dr. Shoop package with others and see. No poison marks there! You can always be on the safe side by demanding Dr. Shoops Cough Cure. Simply refuse to accept any other.
