chamberlaln,s Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised at the
great popularity of Cham mberlain's Cough
Remedy. 1t not only cures colds and
grip effectuuly and permanently, but
prevents these diseases from resulting
in pneumonia. # is also a certain cure
for Group. Whooping cough is not
dangerous when this remedy is given.
1t contains no opium or other harmful
substance and may be given as con-
iidently to a baby as to an adult. 1t is
also pleasant to take When all of these
facts are taken into consideration it is
not surprising that people in foreign
lands, as we'll as at home, esteem this
remedy very highly and very few are
willing to take any other after having
once used it. For sale by Wilson Drug
Company.

The question has been asked-In what
way are Chamberlain's Stomach and
Liver Tablets superior to the ordinary
cathartic and liver pills2 Our answer
is--They are easier and more pleasant
to take and their effect is so gentle and
so agreeable that one hardly realizes
that it is produced by medicine. Then
they not only move the bowels but inn
prove the appetite and aid the digestion.
