Ho is a bread minded, col tured gentleman and will retire frrim ACMM and common carelessness can make a combination strong enough to defy all the healing skill of the physician. Common carelessness lets the cold root and grow. Common carelessness says, between paroxysms of cough ing, " It will be all right in a day or two," and the common end is con firmed lung trouble, perhaps con sumption. The common-sense treat ment of a common cold is a prompt dose of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. It is the most efficient and reliable cure for colds and coughs, and is con stantly prescribed by physicians. S. Hayxes, M. D, Saranac, N. Y, says : "I have used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral in my practice since 1853, and have always found it reliable for the cure of colds, coughs, and all lung diseases."
