Cough Caution Never, positively never poison your lungs. Myou eough ■ even from a simple cola only—you should always heal, soothe, and ease the irritated brat, ehial tubes. Don’t blindly suppress it with a stupefying poison. It’s strange bow jome things finally come about. For twenty years Dr. Shoop has constantly warned people not to take cough mixtures or prescriptions containing Opium. Chloroform, or similar poisons. And now—a little late though—Congress says 'Put it on the label, if poisons are in your Cough Mixture. Good! Very good 11 He—fterfor thisvery reasonmothers, and others, should insist on having Dr. Shoops Cough Cure. Mo poison marks on Dr. Shoop’s labels—end none in the medicine, etoe it aanst ojr tow be on the label. And it’s not only safe, but to to said to be by those that know it best, a truly re. markable cough remedy. Take no chance then, particularly withy our children. Insite on having Dr. Shoop s Cough Cure. Compare carefully the Dr. Shoop package with others and note the difference. No poison marks, there! Yen can always be on the sate side by demanding Dr. Shoop’s Cough Cure A. F. LONG. ' PARKER'S HAIR BALSAM Mid testifies the hair. Pr.m-.otea a laiuriant growth.
