HAD A TERBIBLE COUGH. — <. I TRIED SEVERAL PATENT MEDICINES FOR HIM, BUT THEY ONLY EASED HIM FOR A SHORT TIME." When you hear your child coughing at night, and notice the cheek becoming paler every day and the appetite less, you may possibly think of this letter: —■ "72, Port Vale, Hertford, England, May Ist, 1899. "Dear Sirs,—l have great pleasure in writing to tell you of the very beneficial results your Scott's Emulsion had on my son. For some time he had a terrible cough, often coming on during the night, and when he -wakened in the morning it was quite r?fnf_l to hear him.

He was also troubled witih terrible wheezing at the chest, which I thought was asthma, but am thankful to say the Emulsion cured that also. He is now better than I ever expected him to be. I think it entirely due to his taking Scott's Emulsion, and shall ever be thankful he took it.—l am, gentlemen, respectfully yours, I (Signed) "JANET SCRIMSHIBE." I There is a point in the foregoing letter which possibly may escape your attention unless something is said about it. This is the fact that several patent medicines were tried, but only afforded temporary relief. It is, unfortunately, too often the case that people only look at local symptoms and treat them with specifies, instead of thinking of the general condition of health which makes the local distress possible. When a hacking cough has weakened the system, it takes more than an ordinary specific to bring about perma-tent relief. Scott's Emulsion, is not only a ppecific. affording immediate relief to the inflamed membranes of throat and lungs, but it also gives to the system strength and vitality, so that the body can rise above its weaknesses and regain its normal state of health. 41 JONES AND SONS. — _» Watchmakers and Jewellers, Cashel street (Goldsmiths' Company, London) —Inspection invited of our very large stock of jewellery, watches __td prices before purchasing elsewhere.
