There is no better medicine for the babies than Chamberlaine's Cough Remedy. It's pleasant taste and prompt and effectual cures make it favorite with mothers and small children. It quickly cures their coughs and colds, preventing pneumonia or other serions consequences. It also cures croup and has been used in tens of thousands of cases without 2 single failure so far as we have been able to learn. It not only cures croup, but when given as soon as the croupy cough appears, will prevent the attack. In cases of whooping cough it liquefes the tough mucous, making it easier to expec- torate. and lessens the severity and frequency of the paroxysms of cough ing, thus depriving that disease of all dangerous consequences.
