Danger Signal.
If the fire bell should ring
would you run and stop it or go
and help to put out the fire? It
is much the same with a cough.
A cough is a danger signal as
much as a fire bell. You should
no more try to suppress it than
to stop a fire bell when it is ring-
ing, but ^should cure the dis-
ease that causes the cough-
ing. This can nearly always be
done by taking Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy, Many have used
it with the mo9t beneficial re-
sults. It is especially valuable
for the persistent cough that so
often follows a bad cold or an at-
tack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas
Beeching, Andrews, Ind., writes:
“During the winter my husband
takes cold easily and coughs and
coughs. Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy is the best medicine for
breaking up these attacks and
you cannot get him to take any
other." Obtainable everywhere.
