Reminiscence of the Johnstown Flood.


Soon after the great flood in the Cone
maugh valley, Penn, last summer, the
press dispatches heralded the news of
an epidemic of diarrhea in Johnstown.
The following letter from Rev. H. L.
Chapman, pastor of the Methodist-Epis-
copal church, Johnstown, gives the
particulars and most successful remedy
used:
The box of six dozen Chamberlain's 8
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy,
which you sent at the suggestion of
Hon. Wesley Redhead, reached us soon
after the great flood and at a time when
diarrh9a was quite prevalent. AS soon
as it became known that had the med
icine for distribution, there began a
great run on it, which continued until
it was about all gone. Every one, SO
far as l heard from them, testified to
it's virtues, declaring it the best medi-
cine for the purpose they had ever used.
Those who got it shared it around with
their neighbors, so that l am confident
your generosity in sending it was pro-
ductive of great good. We used some
of it ourselves and found it not only an
excellent medicine for diarrhpa, but
for all kinds of pains and uneasiness in
the stomach and bowels. 1t has been
regarded as the best medicine known
here for the diseases it is recommended
for. In view of your sending such a
large quantity for free distribution
among poor people, | think you are en-
titled to this testimonial in it's favor
