Give Them a Chance!
That is to say, your lungs. Also all
your breathing machinery. Very won
derful machinery it is. Not only the
larger air-passages, but the thousands
of little tubes and cavities leading
from them.
When these are clogged and choked
with matter which ought not to bo
there, your lungs cannot half do their
work. And what they do they can
not do well.
Call it cold, cough, croup, pneumo
nia, catarrh, consumption or any of
the family of throat and nose and
head and lung obstructions, all are
bad. All ought to be got rid of. There
is just one sure way to get rid of
them. That is to tako Boschee's
German Syrup, which any druggist
will sell yon at 75 cents a bottle.
Even if everything else has failed
you, you may depend upon thi3 for
certain.
Hules in ShelN Accounted For.
You sometimes see shells along the
shore having a hole in their side. This
hole is perfectly round, and is beveled
or counter suuk. It seems to have
been made artificially and with great
care. How is it to be accounted for?
Anothor shell, the common cockle,
which is found in great numbers all
along our shores, has done the mis
chief. It has a tongue, furnished
with rows of teeth, giving it a resem
blance to a file. When the little
creature is hungry, it finds another
shell containing a living inhabitant.
It at once fastens itself to it, and by
means of its teeth-covered tongue
commences boring or filing a hole,
and continues at this employment un
til it ha3 gotten through the shell to
the living inhabitant within. This is
what it was after. It has found its
food, and can npw at ita leisure
make its meal.
