NEW ZEALAND TIMES, THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 13, 1884



‘Gehman Smdp.”—No other medicine in the world was ever given such a test of its curative qualities as Boschee’s German syrup. In three years two million four hundred thou sand small bottles of this medicine were dis tributed free of charge by druggists in the United States of America to those afflicted with consumption, asthma, croup, severe coughs, pneumonia, and other diseases of the throat and lungs, giving the afflicted undeniable proof that German Syrup will cure them. The result has been that druggists in every town an village in civilised countries are recom mending it to their customers. Go to your druggist and ask what they know about it Sample bottles, 6d : regular size, 3s 6d. Three loses will relive any case.— fApVT.]
