Tendency of the Timaa.

The tendency of medical science is to. ward preventive measures. The best thought of the world is being given to the subject. It is easier and better to pre- vent than to cure. It has been fully demonstrated that pneumonia, one of the most dangerous diseases that medical men have to contend with, can be pre- vented by the use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always results from a cold or from an attack of influenza (grip), and 1t has been observed that this remedy counteracts any tendency of these diseases toward pneumonia. This has been fully proven in many thousands of cases in which this remedy has been used during the great prevalence of colds and grip in recent years. and can be re- lied upon with implicit confidence. Pneu- monia often results from a slight cola when no danger is apprehended until it is suddenly discovered that there is fever and difficulty in breathing and pains in the chest, then it Is announced that +ba patient has pneumonia. Be on the safe side and take Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy as soon as the cold is contracted + always cures. For sale by all druggists.
