Mother
"My mother wss troubled with
consumption for many years. At
last she wst given up to die. Then
she tried Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
and was speedily cured."
D. P. Jolly, Avoca, N. Y.
No matter how hard
your cough or how long
you have had it. Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral is the
best thing you can take.
It's too risky to wait
until you have consump
tion. 4f you are coughing
today, get a bottle of
Cherry Pectoral at once.
