Something- Good.
So many go to their druggists and
merely nslc for "aoniethin? good"
for a congh or cold Now if the

certainly will sell the one that does
not cost much. When you go to n

want. Ask for Mexican Congh
Syrnp if you want the nicest and
qnickest cough cure twenty-five
Cents will buy. Tnke no other.

It is cruel to give your children
medicine that tastes nasty to cure
