Tendency of the Times

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The
best thought Of the world is being
given to the subject. 1t is easier and
better to prevent than to cure. 1t has
been fully demonstrated that pneu-
monia, one of the most dangerous di-
seases that medical men have to CON
tend with, can be prevented by the
use of Chamberlaiu's Cough Rene
dy. Pneumonia always results from
cold or from an attack of influenza
grip, and it has been observed that
this remedy counteractany 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 relied upon
| with implicit confidence. Pneumo-
when no danger is apprehended un-
til it is suddenly discovered that
there is fever and difficulty in breath
ing and pains in the chest, then it is
announced that the patient has pneu-
monia. Re on the safe side aud tax g
