REMARkABLE CURE OF GROUP. A Little Boys Life Saved.

I have few words to say re- garding Chamberlain.s Cough Remedy. It saved my little boys life and I feel that 1 cannot praise it enough. I bought a bottle of it from A. B. Steere of Goodwin, $. D., and when got home with it the poor baby could hardly breathe. I gave the med icine as directed every ten min utes until he threw up" and then I thought sure he was go- ing to choke to death. We had to pull the phlegm out of his mouth in great long strings. 1 am positive that if I had not got that bottle of cough medicine, my boy would not be on earth to- day. JOEL DEMONT, Inwood, Iowa.

A Good Recommendation.

II have noticed that the sale on Cham berlain's Stomach & Liver Tablets is almost invariably to those who have once used them, :" says MT. J. H. Weber, a promi- nent druggist of Cascade, Iowa. What better recommendation could any medicine have than for people to call for it when again in need of such a remedy? Try them when you feel dull after eating, when you have bad tast in your mouth, feel bilious, have no ap- petite or when troubled with constipation and you are certain to be delighted with the prompt relief which they afford. For sale by Dr. J. B. Neal of McCro- ry and A. $. Thompson of De- View, Arkansas.
