Chamberlain's Coughn Rem-
edy.
No one who is acquainted with
its good qualities can be sur-
prised at tno groat popularity of
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.
It not only cures colds and grip
effectuslly snd permanently, hut.
prevents these diseases from re
suiting in pneumonia. It is also
a certain cure for croup.
Whooping cough is not danger-
ous when this remedy is given.
It contains no opium or other
harmful substanc-j and be given
us confidently to a baby as to an
adult. It is ulso pleasant to
take. When all these facts artf
taken into consideration it is not
surprising that people in foreign
lands, as well as ut home, esteem
th s remedy very highly and
very few are willing to take any
other after having once used it.
For sale by all druggists.
