through the efforts of its publishers to
produce a paper of high moral
character, and at the same time sell it
at a price consistent with the present
hard times. That they have suc
ceeded, and well, too, the thousands
of readers of The Ledgeh scattered

The way to cure u cough is to stop it.
The luligs und throat can never heal
us long as they are irritated by a con
stant coughi Dr. Fennel's Improved
Cough Honey will relieve any cough
in one hour or less. It will break up
a cold in the head before uuy cough
has formed in two to three hours.
Prevention is better than cure! In
chronic coughs the system must be
placed under the healing influence of
Dn Fen iter's Blood und Liver Remedy
and Nerve Tonic also. This places
the system iu a heating condition, and
under the two remedies the lungs und
throat rapidly heul.
