Pneumonia is TOO dangerous a dis
ease for anyone to attempt to doctor
himself, although h emay have the
proper remedies at hand. A physician
should always be called. 1t should be
borne in mind, however, that pner-
monia always results from an attack
OF the grip, and that by giving Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy the threat
cned attack OF pneumonia may be
warded off. This remedy is also used
by physicians in the treatment OF
