When You Have a Gold.

The first action when you have a cold
should be to relieve the lungs. This is
best accomplished by the free use of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. This rem
edy liqueies the tough mucus and causes
its expulsion from the air cells of the
lungs, produces a free e-xpectoration, and
opens the secretions. A complete cure
soon follows. This remedy will cure 3
severe cold in less time than any othe4
natural and healthy condition. 1t counS
teracts any tendency toward pneumonia.
