It Happened in a Drug Store

zone day last winter lady came
to my drug store and asked for a
brand of cough medicine that did
not have in stock" says Mr.. G. r.
Grandin, the popular druggist of
Ontario, n. Y. "She was disap-
pointed and wanted to know what
cough preparation l could recon-
mend. I said to her that / could
freely recommend Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and that she could
take a bottle of the remedy and after
giving it fair trial if she did not
find it worth the money to bring
back the bottle and would refund
the price paid. In the course of
day or two the lady came back in
company with friend in need of a
cough medicine and advised her to
buy a bottle of Chamberlain Cough
Remedy. / consider that very
good recommendation for the remedy"

that the adoption was not unanimous and

Nicely monthly average was about ST..

sided the amounts received, taking one

Mr.. Bristow says he is almost sure
hat the extent of the steal will amount
n something between $4,000 and $780,
no, but that this will not touch the item

As to how many of these were burned
md how many sold it is impossible to OBJ
ain definite information. As many have
leen traced it is known positively that
not all were destroyed, but if Nccly sold,
