Thousands who are troubled with
persistent coughing at night, which
by robbing them of valuable sleep
weakens their systems and lays
them open to dangecous infections,
caa quickly act to prevent this dan-
ger through a very simple treat-
ment People who have hardly been
able to rest at all on account of
coughing spells havs found they can
sleep the whole night through un-
disturbed often the first time they;
try It
The treatment Is based on a re-
markable prescription known as Dr.
King's New Dlsoovery for Coughs.
Ton simply take a teaspoonful at
night before retiring, and hold.lt In
your throat for IB or SO seconds be-
fore swallowing It, without follow-

soothea and heals soreness and Irri-
tation, but It quickly loosens and
removes the phlegm and congestion
which are the direct eo " * ‘

unhealthy. There aro other symp-
t6ms, however. If the child is
pale, has dark rings Under tho
-eyes, bad breath and takes no
interest in play, it is almost a cer-
tainty that worms aro eating away
its vitality. The surest remedy
for worms is White’s Cream Verm-
