Jostled by the crowd, Simeon waited.
After what seemed to him an interim

Her buxom figure and brilliant color

The day had dawned unpleasantly,
and the young man paused in the act
Of buckling his suspenders. gazed out
of his small window at the dreary
landscape and sighed. This cheerful
trait was inherited from his father,
who had sighed through life whose
molehills were all mountains, to be
laid away at last under weeping will
low. Thus little Simeon was left to
the care and jurisdiction of his ma
ternal grandfather. Zachariah Gayley.
Simeon was a young mannOw Grand
father Gayley. despite the weight Of
years, bore their burden with a cheer
full spirit and still sought to steer some
rays of sunshine into the somber soul
Of his depressed grandson.
"Chirk up. Simmy." he would cackle.
"Git a gal an spark her an go round
smilin', same as use ter when l was
young feller."
One vital cause Of the present gloom
was due to the fact that Simeon had
a girl. and she had lately shown an
alarming tendency toward more cheer
full society So Simeon looked out Of
the window and sighed.

I think it is only right that should tell
you what wonderful effect Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy has produced.
The day before Easter I was so dis
tressed with cold and cough that I did
not think to be able to take any duties
the next day, as my voice was almost
choked by the cough. The same day I
received an order from you for bottle
of your Cough Remedy. at once pro-
cured sample bottle and took about
three doses of the medicine. To my
great relief the cough and cold had COM
pletely disappeared and I was able to
preach three times on Easter Day. I
know that this rapid and effective cure
was due to your Cough Remedy. I
make this testimonial without solicita-
ton, being thankful to have found such
a Godsend remedy
