Congratulations.

Mr.. John II. Cullom editor OF the
Garland, Texas, News, has written a
letter of congratulation to the manu-
facturers of Chamberlain Cough
Remedy as follows: Sixteen years ago
when our first child was a baby ne
was subject to croupy spells and we
would be very uneasy about him. We
began using Chamberlain'S Cough
Remedy in 1887, and finding it such
a reliable remedy for colds and Group,
we have never been without 1t in the
house since that time. We have ive
children and have given it TO all OF
them with good results. One good
feature of this remedy is that it is
not disagreeable to take and babies
really like it. Another is that 1t is
not dangerous, and there is no risk
from giving an overdose. | congratu
late you upon the success Of your rem
