The frogs were astonished to findl themselves in an unknown element, in wvhich it was not e possible to support life, and they had to kick vigorously in order to keep their heads abiove the milk. One of them, be ing dlisheatenedW( by being shut upj in the , dark, in an elemnt entirely new to him, J said: "'Let's give' it up and go to tihe bottom; it's no use kicking any longer." The other said:; "Oh, no, let's keep ~ kicking as long as we can, and see what the outcome will be. Maybe things " a wihll change presently.'' So one frog gave it up and1( went to the bottom. o The other kept kicking, andl wheni the milkman got to town and1( opiened his r can, behold the frog had kicked out a ' lump of butter large enough to float.i him, ando he wvas sitting on it com)1fort a- n' bly.

Caution I This is not a gentle word-but when you think how liable you are not to pur chase the only remedy universally known and a remedy that has had the largest.sale of any medicine in the world since 1868 for the cure andl treat ment of Consumption andI Throat and Lung troubles without losing its great popularity all these years, you wilbe thankful we called your attention to Boschee's German Syrup. There are so many ordimary cough remedies made by drugists and others that are cheap and goo for light colds perhaps, but for severe Coughs, Bronchitis, Croup-and especially for Consumption, where there is difficult expectoration and coughing during.the nmghts and mornings, there is nothmg like German Syrup.
