There is no better medicine for the
babies than Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Its pleasant taste and prompt
and eifectual cures make it a favorita
with mothers and small children. II
quickly cures their coughs and colds,
preventing pneumonia or other serious
consequences. 1t also cures Group and
has been used in tens OF thousands Of
cases without single failure so far as
we have been able to learn. It not
only cures Group. but when given as
soon as the croupy cough appears, will
prevent the attack. In cases of whoop-
ing cough it liquefies the tough mucus,
making 1t easier to expectorate. and
lessons the severity and frequency of
