Restless nights and the exhaustion due to coughing, the greatest danger and dread of the consumptive, can be prevented or stopped by taking German Syrup liberally and regularly. Snould you te able to go to a warmer clime, nou wil find that of the tdousands of consumptives there, the few who are benefited and regain strength are those who use German Syrup.
