One Dose for Coughs |
Children cough at night? Give them Ayers Cherry Pec?
toral. Often a single dose at bedtime will completely
control the cough. Good for any one with a cold or cough.
Good for easy cases, hard cases; good for acute cases,
chronic cases. Ask your doctor to tell you, honestly and
frankly, just what he thinks of this old standard remedy.
No alcohol in this COUgh medicine. /. C. Ayer Co. j Lowell, Mass.
A lazy liver makes a lazy boy. An active brain demands an active liver. No better
laxative for boys and girls than Ayer's Pills. Ask your doctor about them. He knows.

not always boen chosen by popular

Before 1800 it was tie- general cus?

the electors, and it wss not until isj.s
that prealdendsJ electors vere chosen
in nearly all the States by popular Note.
As late as ]\~d th.* Colorado legislature
chose the three presidential (lectors to
represent that slate. There ls nothing
in the constitution to prevent any state
legislature naming Its own etectori
without api-eal to the people provided
roch a method of election is prescribed
by the state laws.
From ism to 1MU presidential eau

of ((ingress In caucus. In 1821 the
electoral college failed ta make a choice
from the candidates so submitted, and
the matter went lo the house of repre
sentatlves. Four years later Termes
see's legislature nominated Andrew
Jai-kson without any reference I
congressional caucus. His opponent,
John Quiney Adams, was nominated in
the old way, bul that was the end of
presidential nominations by congres
