“ Dear, dsar papa, say will you come 1

“ Delay, oh I I can brook no more,
Come with me father, I implore I
And buy me Soda Watt r I”
-*■ My eyes are dim, my pulses beat,
It seems to me, with fever beat, ,
And sends tbe blood to neck and cheek,”
Paid Jon s’lovely danghj r;
“My throat is dry, ande’enany lungs, ~* ■" t *,
Oh! take me up to D B Ploub’S, L . M
And buy me Soda Water.”
“ And when I drink of It, I ween,
Tbe gushing, cold and sparkling stream,
Will cause my ey. s again t^beam,”
Sail Jones’ lovely da^hter;
“Yes! yes I” said she, and “Yes I” said he, -
And off they tripped quite merrily,
For Plumb's Cold Soda Water,
On reaching there tbe crowd was great,
And patiently they had to wait,
Said Jones’ lovel> daughter;
. Bnt soon was served the cooling draught,
The fever vanished, while she quaffed
Plumb’s Sparkling Soda Water.- '

Koskoo Cures Scrofula in its Worst Forma,
From A. W. Mills, a prominent and well
known Merchant of Norfolk, Va.:
No. 11 Main street, Norfolk, Va., September 15,1869.
Dr. Lawrence— Dear Sir: Yonr Koskoo
has worked wonders in my family. My daugh
ter lias beeu a sufferer from Scrofula since
childhood. She lost thirty-ope pieces of bone
from her ankle, several iroiu her arm, besides
having ulcers in several parts of the body.—
Whilst in this condition she commenced taking
yonr Koskoo— it acted like a charm on her ; un
der its use the ulcers gradually healed , and her
general health greatly improved. It certainly
saved her much suffering, and perhaps her life.
I regard Koskoo a specific for all scrofulous
affections. Yonr Koskoo also cured my wife
of dyspepsia, from wbipb she suffered greatly.
She is not; in better health than she has beep in
five years.
With the highest regards,
I am gratefully yours, Ac.,
A. W. MILLS.
Koskoo is endorsed by the best physicians
everywhere. Read the following from Dr.
Tillery, a successful practitioner of many years
standing in the Old North State:
Rocky Mount, KJgecomb Go., ;
' ' " September 10, 1869. (
Dr. J. J. Lawrence— Detr Sir: I have used
your Concentrated Fluid Extract of Koskoo in
my practice with the happiest results. I find it
to be a powerful Liver Invigorator, Blood Fn
rifier, and Nervous Tome. Jn all diseases of
tbe Liver, Scrofulous, Syphilitic apd Nervous
Affection 5, it is a remedy of immense value ;
in fact, in almost every variety of Chronic
Diseases its use is indicated. Hoping you
may meet with tfce success which you deserve
as a manufacturer of reliable medicines, I am,
sir, with much respect,
Your obedient servant,
R. C. TILLERY, M. 0.
Koskoo Cures Chronic Rheumatism.
Nottron, Va., September 7, 1860.
Dr. J. J. Lawrence— Dear Sir; My son has
received so much benefit from yonr wonderful
Kasfaa that I cannot retrain from expressing
my gratitude. I had tried almost everything
without benefit. I believe, in all sincerity, that
yonr Koskoo is an infallible remedy for the
disease from which he has suffered, and, so far
as I can learn, has never failed. If you only
knew the immense amount of suffering that he
has undergone, then you could conceive the
pahfe of such a remedy as Koskoo— that surely
cures. The great amount of good it is now
doing among us is inestimable.
With much gratitude,
f um, respectfully, yours, &c.,
Mrs. M. E. A. NELBON.
FROM DR. LLOYD. A PHYSICIAN OF LARGE
PRACTICE.
Great Bridge, Ya., October 8,18f19.
J. J. Lawrence, M. p.—Dear Sir i I cheer
fully endorse your Koskoo as being a most
Valuable preparation. Upon examination of
the formula, I find each ingredient highly ex
lolled by our best and most progressive clini
cal investigators. 1 have tested its effects iD
my own practice, and have no hesitation in
recommending it. In my opinion, it is tbe best
compound of its class ever put before the pub
lic—exceeding by far all the various compounds
of Sarsaparilla, Ac., ever invented. It is a de
cided Nerve Tonic, and Invigorator of the ani
mal forces, nidjng digestion and assimilation,
and thereby producing healthy blood, which
should be the basis of treatment in all chronic
diseases. Hoping you will reap the reward
yon deserve from the public as a benefactor,
I am, sir, yours truly,
CHARLES LLOYD.
After readipg the aboye high recommenda
tion, Invalids cannot reasonably hesitate to
give the ROBKOO a trial.

THE PROTECTOR JARS have metal Lids, with Akms, which turn on the inclines of
the neck of the Jars, and thus tighten the rubber on to the GROUND EDGE of th« Jar
