WHAT IS A COUGH?

A spasdomic effort to expel the mu-
Gus from the bronchial tubes. A cold
causes a more abundant secretion of
mucus, and when the lungs and bron-
chial tubes are infiamed, they are eX-
tremely sensitive to the irritation. Un-
less care is taken, the cold may result
in pneumonia, which is swift and dead
ly. If the cold is a lingering one, the
more leisurely but equally fatal con-
Sumption may set in. Do not neglect
cold or cough. Take Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. 1t always cures and
cures quickly. Sold by all dealers
