The idea that "It does not matter" often leads to serious complications. The remedy which immediately and easily penetrates the lining of the throat is the kind de manded. Dr. King's New Discovery soothes the irritation, loosens the phlegm. You feel better at once. "It seemed to reach the very spot of my Cough" is one of many honest testimonials. bOc. at your Druggists, Llfe-Glvlng Properties of Color. Experiments show that the order of colors ranked as to their life-giving properties will be: blue, violet, yellow, red and green. Thus, if a patient is put in a hospital where green pro dominates he has a far slimmer chance of speedy recovery than if he wars comfortably fixed In a blue room. IT REALLY DOES RELIEVE RHEUMATISM Everybody who is afflicted with rheumatism in any form should by all means keep a bottle cf Sloan's Lini ment on hand. The minute you feel pain or soreness in a joint or muscle, bathe it with Sloan's Liniment. Do not rub it. Sloan's penetrates al most immediately right to the seat of pain, relieving the hot, tender, swool en feeling and making the part easy and comfortable. Get a bottle of Sloan's Liniment of any druggist and have it in the house against colds, sore and swollen joints, rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica and like ailments. Your money back if not satisfied, but it does give almost instant relief. World's Largest Plant.
