SEVERE ATTACK ORG Up
Cured BY one Bottle Of ChamQ .,rlainl
Cough Remedy.


"When had an attack Of the grip last
winter (the second one) actually cur d
myself with one bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy" says Frank w. Peery,
Editor Of the Enterpris, Shorteville. N.
Y. "This 10 the honest truth. I at
times kept from coughing myself to
pieces by taking tea-spoonful of this
remedy, and when the coughing spell
would come on at night would take
dose and it seemed that in tho briefest
interval the cough would pass off and /
would go to sleep perfectly free from
cough and its accompanying pains. To
say that the remedy acted as a most
agreeable surprise is putting it very
mildly. / had no Idea that 1t would or
could knock out the grip, simply be-
cause l had never tried it for such a
purpose, but it did, and it seemed with
the second attack OF coughing the rem
edey caused il to not only be of less du-
ration, but the pains were far less severe
and had not used the contents of one
bottle before Mr.. Grip had bid me
adieu" For sale by w. w. Buck & Co
