THE FUNERAL MONTH OF MARCH.
An observant metropolitan harber says that he can tell one’s physical condition by the state of the hair! The Bible tells us that with his hair gone Samson lost his strength. The Romans considered baldness a serious affliction and Jalius Cae?ar was never quite satisfied with himself because his poll was bare. The face, however, is the open book and one can readily trace in its various expression, lines, changes and complexion the state of the system. The eye that is nnusualiy bright and yet has a pallid brightness, the f*o9 upon whose cheeks natnre paints a rose of singular beauty and flush, more marked in contrast with the alabaster appearance of the forehead and nose and lower part of the face, is one pf those whom the skilled physician will tell you rome day dread the funeral month of March, because it is then that consumption reaps its richest harvest. Consumption they tell us, is caused hy this, that and the other thing, by microbes in the air, by micro-organ-ismsin the blood, by deficient nutrition, by a thousand and one things, but whatever the cause, decay begins with a cough and the remedy that will efiectually stop the c*use of that cough cures the disease of the lungs. That is all there is of it. The cough is an evidence of a wasting. To stop it effectually, a remedy must be used that will search out the cause, remove that and then heal the lung,anddo away with the cough. This is the power, special to itself, possessed alone by Warner’s Log Cabin Cough and Consumption remedy. This is no new-fangled notion of narcotics and poisons, but an old fashioned preparation of balsams, roots and herbs, such as was usqd by our ancestors many years ago, the formula of which has been secured exclusively by the present manufacturers at great trouble and expense. It is not a mere cold dryer. It is a system searcher and upbuilder and a consumption expellant. Where others fail, it winß, because it gets at the constitutional cause and removes it from the system. J, W. Hensaw, of Greensboro, Pa., on Januarv 15, 1888, reported that “he had derived more real benefit for the length of time,from Warner’s Log Cabin Cough and Consumption remedy than be had for years from the best state physicians.” If yon have a cough, night sweats, “positive assurance in your own mind that vou, oh—you have no consumption,” and yet lose flesh, appetite, courage, as your lungs waste away, you may know that soon the funeral month of March will claim you. unless promptly and faithfully you use the articlenamed. If other remedies have failed trv this one thoroughly. If others are offered, insist the more on trying this umqualed preparation. Some parsons are prone to consumption and they Bhould never allow the disease to become seated.
