W. Long & Ca is because of theennrmou* expense of importing the Hepatine into this coun try ; but as there are fifty doses in the large size bottles, it seems two cents per dose is cheap enough after all for a medicine that cures dyspepsia and liv er complaint.

They recommend the Globe Flowek Cough Stout, and their “German Svbup.”—No other medicine in tho w**rld was ever given such a test of its curaiite qualities as Boschee’s German Syrup. In three years two million four hundred thou sand small bottles of this 'medicine were distributed free of charge by Druggists in this country to those affiicled with Consumption, Asthma, Cr*»up, severe Coughs, Pneumonia and ,-tlier diseases ot the Throat and Lungs, giving the American people undeniable pYout that German Syrup will core theitv.

A Gentle Hint.—In our style of climate, with its mi- de 1 changes of temperature—rain, wind and suushine often intermingled in a single day—it is no wonder that our rhildren friends and relatives are so frequently taken from us by neglected colds, halt the deaths resulting directly from this cause. A bottle of Boschee’s German Syrup kept about your home for im mediate use will prevent serious sick ness, a large doctor’s bill, and perhaps death, by the use of three or four doses. For curing Consumption, Hemorrhages Pneumonia, Severe Coughs, Croup or any .disease of the Thnat or Lungs, its success is simple wonderful, as your druggist will tell you.
