was disappointed and wanted to know
what cough preparation 1 could rec
ommend. I said to her that I could free
ly recommend Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, and that she could take a bot
tie of the remedy and after giving it a
fair trial if she did not find it worth the
money to bring back the bottle and 1
would refund the price paid. In the
course of a day or two the lady came
back in company with a friend in need
of a cough medicine, and advised her to
buy a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. I consider that a very good
