Nothing in the way of a cough is (luite .so annoying as a tickling, teasing, wheez- ing, bronchial Cough. The quickest relief comes perhaps from a prescription known to Druggists everywhere as Dr. Shoop's Cough Remtdy. And besides, it is so thorouiihiy harmless that mothers give it with perfect: pafety even to the youngest babes. The tender leaves of a .simple mountain .'â- brub, give to Dr. ShcoiKS Cough Remedy its remarkable curative effect. It is truly a most certain and trustworthy prescription. Sohl by all dealers.
