How TO PREVENT PSEUhoNIA.-You are
perhaps aware that pneumonia always re-
suits from a cold or from an attack OF la
grippe. During the epidemic of la grippe
few years ago when 80 many cases resulted
in pneumonia, 1t was observed that the at
tack was never followed by that disease
when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was
used. 1t counteracts any tendency of a
cold or la grippe to result in that dangerous
disease. 1t il the best remedy in the world
for bad colds and la grippe. Every bottle
warranted. For sale by G. Blakely, W. e..
