The longer the cough sticks, the more serious menace it becomes to your health. There is no remedy that will re- lieve coughs---coughs that won't let go--like Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup. It has a healing aud soothing ac- tion on the air passages, and at the | the respiratory organs, destroying the germs that produce serious lung com- plications. : Mrs. John Miller, Minburn, Alta., writes: --*1 had a very bad cough for three years. I went to several doctors and tried different cough medicines, but nothing seemed to help me. One day a friend told me about Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, and after using several bottles I became com- bletely relieved. I always keep a bottle in the house, and also recom- mend it to others. Dr. 'Wood's Norway Pine Syrup has been universally used for over 30 years, and so great has been its Success, it is only natural that a great many imitations have been placed on the market.
