Allow me to say few words in praise of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I can recommend it with utmost confidence. It has done good work for me and will do the same for others. I had a very severe cough and cold and feared I would get pneumonia. but after taking the second dose of this medicine I felt better, three bot ties of it cured my cold and the pains in my chest disappeared en- tirely. l am most respectfully, yours for health, Ralph s. Meyers, GA Thirth-seventh street, Wheeling, w. Va. For sale by the Williams Drug Co.

Some years ago while at Mar tinsburg, w Va, I was taken with cholera morbus, which was followed by diarrhoea. The doctors medi- cine did me no good.
