From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard. n. Q.
1t may De a question whether the ed
itor of a newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market, yet as preventative of suffer
ing We feel it duty TO say good
word for Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have
known and used this medicine in our
family for twenty years and have al
ways found 1t reliable. In many cases
dose of this remedy would save hours
of suffering while physician is await
ed We do not believe in depending i'm
plicitly on any medicine for cure, but
we do believe that If a bottle of Cham
berain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept
on hand and administered at the incep-
ton of an attack much suffering might
be avoided and in very many cases the
presence of a physician would not be
required. at least this has been our
