Remedy as directed with each bottle, under
the heading ''to prevent Group" will dispel
all symptoms of the disease The first sign
of Group, lhoarseness, may be overlooked
by young mothers or those not familiar
with the disease. Under such circum-
stances, or when not properly treated. the
hoarseness becomes more marked and the
child shows symptoms of having taken cold,
then peculiar rough cough is developed.
Even at this stage Chamherlain's Cough
Remedy will prevent the Group, but after
the cough has developed, the Group
is liable TO appear at any moment.
The proper way, is 20 keep bottle
OF this remedy at hand. Il crsts but fifty
cents, and only few doses, or, at most, not
over one-third of bottle is required TO dis
pei all symptoms OF the disease Can you
afford to risk so much for 80 little? There
is not the least danger in giving this rem
edv in large and frequent doses which are
always required, us IL contains no injurious
substance. As proof of this fact, we refer
