PROPER TREATMENT OF PNEUMO-
MA.

Pneumonia is too dangerous dis
ease for anyone to attempt to doctor
himself, although he may have the
proper remedies at hand. A physician
should always be called. 1t should be
borne in mind, however, that pneumo-
mia always results from cold Of from
an attack of the grip, and that by CIV
ing Chamberlain's Cough Remedy the
threatened attack of pneumonia may
be warded off. This remedy is also
used by physicians in the treatment of
pneumonia with the best results. DR.
W. J. Smith, of Sanders, Ala, who is
also druggist, says of it: II have been
selling Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
and prescribing it in my practice for
the past six years. I use it in cases of
pneumonia and have always ;gotten
the best results" Sold by R. 81.
