Street-Car Pass for Dog.
A Detroit man has a pass which en
titles him to carry his dog with him
on the street cars. The pass is in the
shape of a photograph of the dog, on
the back of which is an order, signed
by the superintendent of the lines, di
recting the conductors of all cars to
permit the dog to ride. The dog—a
Boston terrier—is known to nearly
all the conductors, and it is rarely

effective than syrups, cough mixtures,

penetrates through to the direct cause,
which is, as a rule, an accumulation
of matter or growth tightly adhered
to the bronchial tubes.
St. Jacob’s Oil, possessing as it does
those wonderful penetrating powers,
enables it to loosen these adhesions

St. Jacob’s Oil is for sale through
