The exposureto all sorts aud con-
ditions of weather that lumberman Is
called upon to endure in the camps Of
ten produces severe colds which, if not
promptly hecked, result in congestion,
or pneumonia. Mr. J. Q. Davenport,

CO., an immense iEsti ution at Fort
Bragg, Cal, says they sell large quanti-
ties of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
at the company's store and that he has
