what to DO Until the Doctor Arrive,

~ nat TO do Until tho Doctor Arrives
1t is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear ones suffer while await
ing the arrival of the doctor. An AL
bany IN. W dairyman called at drug
store there for doctor to come and
see his child, then very sick with Group.
Not finding the doctor in, he left word
for him to come at once on his return.
He also bought bottle of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy, which he hoped
would give some relief until the doc
tor should arrive. In few hours he
returned, saying the doctor need not
come, as the child was much better.
The druggist, Mr., Otto Scholz, says the
family has since recommended Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy to their neigh
bors and friends until he has con-
tant demand for it from that part of
the country. For sale by druggists.
