Hean's Essence' had just, stepped jinto a shop where 1 patent medicines are sold, when a lady customer was using the words above related. He was unknown.to either shopman ,or cu*; tomer . Apparently, the lady had formerly tried Hean's Essence .for making her own good family cough and cold remedy, had proved it Rood, and desired to purchase another bottle. ■ :'. ■■• -. ■■.■'■ -.-. The man behind the counter wanted to sell her ■ [something else—probably he would make_ a little more profit for him-ec-lf—but--his- "just- as' good" substitute didn't appeal. ' , . . .
