Last summer one Of our grandchild-
en- was sick with a severe bowel trouble.
Our doctors remedies had failed, then
we tried Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and diarrhoea Remedy, which gave
very speedy relief. We regard it as
the best medicine ever put on the
market for bowel comprehensive E.
G. Gregory, F'rederickstown, Mo. This
certainly is the best medicine ever put
on the market for dysentery, summer
complaint, collie and cholera infantum
in children. 1t never fails to give
prompt relief when used in reasonable
time and the plain printed directions
are followed. Many mothers have .ex-
pressed their sincere gratitude for the
cure 1t has effected. For sale by L.

every portion of the United States as we'll as
from every part of the habitable globe. Con-

teen hours earlier than the morning papers.

lished regularly and all events of interest &C.
