Some seasonabIe Advice.

1t may be a piece of superfious ad-
vice to urge people at this season of
the year to lay in a supply of Cham
b~erlain's Cough Remedy. 1t is almost
sure to be needed before winter Is
over, and much more prompt and sat
isfactory results are obtained when
taken as soon as a cold is contracted
and before it has become settled in
the system, which can only be done
by keeping the remedy at hand. This
remedy is so widely known and SO
altogether good that no one should
hesitate about buying it in perfer-
ence to any other. 1t is for sale by
all dealers.
