think is certain: Our candidate
will be taken from the East, with
special reference so his ability to
carry the electoral votes of New

Mr. H. Haggins of Melbourne,

I had consumption and nothing
could be done for pie. I was given
iup to die. The offer of a free trial
bottle of Dr. King’s New Discov
ery for Consumption, induced me
to try it. Results were startling,

and owe all to Dr. King’s New

As the smallpox scare is abroad
iu our own county, perhaps it
would be well to publish these two
recipes, wnich I enclose. They
came out in papers several years
ago, and one of them I know was
E rin ted in your paper. But per-
aps there are many who failed
to clip them out and save, and
very many forgot the names of
medicine and quantity required.
The fir it recipe it is said will
cause the disease to disappear in
12, hours, and is equally effica
cious in scarlet fever. The cream
of tartar remedy is said to bo sure
and never failing and will cure in
8 days.
Respectfully,
Mrs. S. R. Lee.
Sulphate of zinc, one grain;
foxglove (digitalis), one grain;
half a teaspoonful of sugar. When
thoroughly mixed, add four ounces
ot water. Take a spoonful every
hour. Fpr a child smaller doses
according to age. The disease
disappearing in 10 hours.
Another Recipe.
Take five cents worth of cream
cfi tartar and put it into a pint of
water, stir it ,up and give the pa
tient a tablespoouful of the mixt
ure every four hours. The same
dose twice a day will act as a pre
ventive to those exposed. This
remedy will cause the disease to
disappear iu 8 days.
Teiideucy ol'tlio Times.
The tendency of medical soience
is toward preventive measures.*
The best thought of the world is
being given to the subject. Itfis
easier and better to preveut than
to cure. It has been fully dem
onstrated that pneumonia, one of
the most dangerous diseases that
medical 1 men have to contend
with, oau be prevented by the
use of Chamberlain’s Cough Rem
edy. Pneumonia always results
from a cold or from an attack of
influenza (grip.) and it has been
observed that this remedy coun
teracts any tendency of these dis
eases toward pneumonia. This
has been fully proven in many
thousands of cases in which this
remedy has been used during the
great prevalence of colds and grip
in recent years, aud can be relied
upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia often results from a
slight cold when no danger is ap
prehended until it is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and
difficulty in breathiug and pains
in the chest, then it is announced
that the patient has pneumonia.
Be on the safe side and take
Chamberlain’s Cough Remed” as
soon as the cold is contracted. It
always cures. For sale by all
druggists.
