How TO Save Doctor Bills.

We have saved many doctor bills
since we began using Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy in our home. We keep
a bottle open all the time and when
ever any Of my family or
myself begin to catch cold we
begin to use the Cough Rene
dy, and as result we never have to
send away for doctor and incur a
large doctor bill. for Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy never fails to cure. 1t
is certainly a medicine of great merit
and worth.-D. S. Mearkle, General
