Mrs. William V. Henderson, of New
York, felt chilly. sneezed once or twice.
and said., II think ! must have taken
cold"
That was on Thursday. On Sunday
she died! Doctors said 1t was the grip,
but lit started with a cold"
Mr.. James G. Wheatley, of Chicago.
Monday morning, buoyant with life and
hope. He became heated, went out
without his overcoat to get a hasty
lunch. and the cold wind chilled him.
He died on Wednesday, victim of
pneumonia, which started with a

Hundreds of men and women are dy-
ing every day from grip, from pneu-

which started with a cold" What Is
the lesson?
Stop the first symptoms. "a stitch
In time saves nine" DO not delay. Use
the best thing you can get and do 1t at
once.
But what shall do?
Follow the experience Of others. Mrs.
Andrew d. Whitman of Brooklyn, says:
Il felt the grip coming on. knew
this from what had heard others say.
l was chilly, my head ached, my bones
and muscles seemed In pain. I felt
feverish. was miserable. did not de-
lay, but began treating the trouble at
once. The next day l was better. the
third day well and entirely through
the use of DIR. Acker's English Remedy
for Coughs. Colds and Consumption.
1t is grand"
MIR. wilmot F. Glover, of Buffalo,
says:
II have no fear OF the grip. none
whatever. I have been attacked by It
four different times and in each case
have driven It off inside Of "a hours.
How? BY DR.. Acker's English Remedy.
l tell you this Remedy will not only do
what is claimed for lt-viz. cure a cold
in a day, check a cough In a night-but
1t will keep Off the grip every time"
Both of these cases of grip started
with a cold" He advised and during
this season of the year check the first
symptoms by the best thing you can
get. and thus avoid those terrible trou-
bles which yet may only have started
with a cold"
