Coughs. Coughing is produced by. aninflammationandirritation of the membrane lining the Tespiratory passages. This irritation is nsually voked by cold, dust or mpness. It isthisirritated membrane to which the tubercle bacillus seadily pays its addresses. As the tubercle bacillus is the cause of sconsumption (tuberculosis) it is desirable to relieve the irritation at once, or the disease may supervene. Sirolin accomplishes this perfectly, and should be used Whenever there is any cough dpe to the irritation of the réspiratory passages. 1f consumption has al veloped, andis n its eatly stages, let the same-treatment prevail. as coughing ruptures the delicate Tang cells and strains the tissues and the Tittle blood vessels.. Itis the effort o clear the gpongeiike air cells of the lungs of the masses of mucns (palegm) which settles in’them, ‘which causes the violent coughing speis. After a fow days’ use of Sirolin the tendency to 2na' the Toarfil wenr angfaiesy the pulm [ umonary tissues natarally Are You Troubled Every_one w'ho has suffered from a deep- seated cold knows how annoying and exhausting the night coughs are. Sirolin—a dose taken at bed-time—relieves the tickling and irritation that cause the coughing fits, Sirolin not only alleviates the coughing, but it dispels the worst cold in a few days. The Sirolin is_a specific remedy for all affections of the respiratory tract where coughs and colds are the leading symptoms, and which lead to pulmonary consumption. 1t is composed of the true therapeutic’agent of creosote, which is 5o often used for such disorders, but has none of the undesirable effects of that drug on the digestion. Itshould beused when there are symptoms of any disease; of the respiratory organs— bronchitis, influenza, gitis, pharyngitis, catarrh, asthma, whooping cough— and so on up the list to con- sumption. The timely use of Sirolin will be a factor in the saving of thousands of lives. Ask your physician about Sirolin. He knows of -its whrld-wide reputation. Allleadingdruggistshaveit. SIROLIN The Best Remedy For Grippe. By Coughing at Night? Sirolin contaifis no' morphine, codeine, habit-forming or constipating drug THE SIROLIN COMPANY, /365 & 367 Canal Street, New York buJ S vl ot Al | °§ B ST = [ ) (Reprint 'trom The legitimate, honorable and honest pianc deslers of New York have suffered pretty seversly from dishonest competition at various times, and éometimes at the hands of these from whom different things had been expected. But it ig only recently that thers has been -introduced a form of jugglery which has made victims of thousands In the west amd’ elsewhers. This called forth most violent deunciation at the piano dealers’ convention in Detreit last June, and has beon exposed and anathematized by . respectabls newspapers and dealers everywhere. We sefer to the “Puzzle Contest,” “Limerick- Verse Contsst,” “Rebus,” “Drawing Contest” er any other form of “Contest” that involves for misleading “coupens,” “bonds” “checks” or “due bills” given as prizes for esrrect selutions of the puzzles. These puzzies are so simple that anyone esn selve them. The “Contest/” like the ss-called “Plano Club,” depends for success upon deception. The deception, as the musical journals ‘term it; censists in taking a piano that may be worth $250, and pretending that it is worth $400, If you solve the puzzle correctly (and, of courss, ANYONE can solve it correctly), yeu get & “due bill” werth $50 or $75 or $100 or $160 towards the purchase of the “9400” plane which is only werth $250. Generally one piano is given away fres to'the ene whose solutisn is “received first,” or who sends ths “nestest® solution, or something of that sort, and the name of ths porson Is ad- vertised and exploited to show that the promoters de as they agree, and to attract new dupes for the next “contest” . In some cases an article of jewsiry, pen, pencil, ér seme« thing of that nature Jis effered as & consolation prize for all who fail to receive one of the “mere valuable” prize “checks” or “bonds”” 8o the contsestant believes he Will get one of these anyway, as a reward for his trouble. But he dossn’y know the game. The jewelry is seldom or never given away, because jewelry, even if cheap, costs SOMETHING; while “checks” and “bonds” for $56 or $150 cost absolutely NOTHING and are WORTH nothing, hence are sent to everybody who sends a so- lution of the puzzle. Of couese, the piang that is given away is paid for many titmes over by the other “successful centestants,” or victims, who bring their due bills for $50 or $75, and then pay the balance of $325 or $350, in cash, for a piane that could be bought here, or ‘most anywhere, of any honerable house, for $225 or $250. So, instead of getting a reduction they really pay much mere, even after deducting the “check,” than the : .me pianc (or one of the same quality) costs elsewhere. It is not only a misrepresentation, but such an obviously apparent one that we wonder so many are misled thereby, We shall take occasion to publish from time to time extracts from the various journals of this Country, in condemnation of the_practice. In the meantime, if anyone is especially interested and will call,"we shall be pleased to show them such articles confirma- tory of this statement and shall prove our contention, which is made in the interest of all piano dealers whose business fined| to ‘methods and legitimate pianos. cone gitima Broadway, Fourth Avenue, Tonth Street.
