A Remarkable Record.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a remarkable record. It has been in use for over thirty years. durieg which time many million bottles have been sold and used. It has long been the standard and main reliance in the treatment of eroup in thousands of homes, yet during all this time no case has ever been reported to the manufac- turers in which it failed to effect a cure. When given as soon as the child becomes hoarse or even as soon as the croupy cough appears, it will prevent the attack. It is pleasant to take. many children like it. 1t contains no opium or other harmful substance and may be given as confidently to a baby as to an adult. For sale by all druggists
