This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for Group

One of the most terrible things in the

most as sure to be lost in case OF Group
as a revolver is to be lost in case Of burg
lars. There used to be an oldfashioned
remedy for Group, known as hive syrup
and tolu, but some modern mothers say
that Chamberlain Cough Remedy is
better, and does not cost so much. II
causes the patient to throw up the
phlegm" quicker, and gives relief ID a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon
as the croupy cough appears and it will
nreyent the attack. 1t never fails and
