Congratulations

Mr.. John II. Cullom editor of the
Garland, Texas, News. has written a
letter of congratulations to the manu-.
factUrers of Chamberlain Cough
Remedy, as follows: Sixteen years ago
when our first child was baby he was
subje to croupy spells aud we would be
very uneasy about him. We began
using Chamberlaln's Cough Remedy in
1887, and finding it such a reliable
remedy tor colds and groups, we have
never been without it in the house since
that time. We have five children and
have given 1t to all of them with good
results. One good feature of this remedy
is that it is not di agreeable to take
and our babies really like it. Another
is that it is not dangerous, and there is
no risk from giving an overdose. l
congratulate you upon the success of
your remedy" Sold by all druggists.
