About one month ago my child,
which is fifteen months old, had an
attack of diarrhoea, accompanied by
vomiting. / gave it such remedies as
are usually given in such cases, but
as nothing gave relief, we sent for a
physician and 1t was under his care
for week. At this time the child
had been sick for about ten days and
was having about twenty-five opera
tons of the bowels every twelve hours,
and we were convinced that unless it
soon obtained relief il would not live.
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Di-
arrhoea Remedy was recommended,
and ] decided to try it. I soon noticed
a change for the better; by its CON
tinued use a complete cure was
brought about and it is now perfectly
healthy.-C. L. BOGGS. Stumptown,
