Mr Sedgwick, who helped me t<
finish the new boat, asked me t<
name the boat Wanderer and saic
he would paint the name on it foi
me, so that is how the boat came b*
the name. As I am a wandere
myself and I am Wanderer No 1
I call the boat Wanderer No 2.

fine trips pn the river, leaving th

Here's hoping your record as a sol

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is * regular
cough medicine, a
strong medicine, a doctor's
medicine. Good for easy ,
coughs, hard coughs, desper1
ate coughs. If your doctor

it. If not, don't take it. Never
go contrary to his advice.

The dose of Ayer's Pills is small, only

are better than cathartic doses. For constipation,
biliousness, dyspepsia, sickheadaches,
they cannot be excelled.
Ask your doctor about this.
