A SURE CURE FOR GROUP.
Twenty Five Years Constant Use
Without a Failure.

Twenty Five Years Constant Use
Without a Failure.
The first indication of Group is hoarse-
ness. and in a child subject to that dis
ease it may be taken as a sure sign of
the approach of an attack. Following
this hoarseness is peculiar rough cough.
If Chamberlain Cough Remedy is given
as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or
even after the croupy cough appears. it
win prevent the attack. 1t is used in
many thousands OF homes in this broad
land and never disappoints the anxious
mothers. We have yet to learn of a
single instance in which it has not
proved effectual. No other preparation
can show such a record-twenty-f five
years constant use without a failure.

may dose a patient for years on theiI
mercurial and potash remedies, but he
will never be rid of the disease; on the

for this terrible affection, because it is
