WOOD'S Norway Pine Syrup CURED BIdM. Mr. Prank B Anthony, 60 Ellen Street, Winnipeg, Man., writes: "Having taken several bottles of Dr, Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, during the past few weeks, to relieve a chronic cough and general throat trouble, allow me to ex- press my unbounded satisfaction and thanks as to its sterling qualities, A short time ago I became suddenly subject to violent coughing fits at night, and directly after rising in the morning, for about an hour, and found I was gradually losing weight. All my friends cheerfully informed me that I looked as though I ,were -going- in consumption, and I honestly believed such was the case. However, after having taken several bottles of 'Dr. Wood's' I am pleased to relate. that the cough has entirely dis- appeared, along with all the nasty symptoms, and I have since regained the lost weight. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr, Woods Norway Pine Syrup as a sure cure for all those troubled in a like manner.". , When you ask for "Dr. Wood's" see 'that you get what you ask lfor.
