Excellent for Croupy Children,-- When a child is suffering with croup it is a good pian to use Dr. Thomas' Eclectrje Oil. It reduces the inflam- mation .and loosens the phlegm giving speedy relief to the little sufferer. It is equally reliable for sore throat and chest, earache, rheumatic pains, cuts, bruises and sprains. Dr, Thomas' Ec- lectric Oil is regarded by many thou- sands as an indispensable of the fam- ily medicine chest. THE SEAFORTH NEWS. DUBLIN.
