"My wife would have been in her
grave today,” writes O. H. Brown of
Muscadine, Ala., "if it had not been
for Dr. King’s New Discovery. She
was down in her bed, not able to get
up without help. She had a severe
bronchial trouble and a dreadful
cough. I got her a bottle of Dr. King’s
New Discovery, and she soon began
to mend, and was well in a short
time.” Infallible for coughs and colds.
It’s the most reliable remedy on earth
for desperate lung trouble, hemor
rhages, la grippe, asthma, hay fever,
croup and whooping cough. 50c and
