Do Not Suppress a ough

When you have a cough do not try to
suppress it, but remove the cause. The
cough is only a symptom ofsome disease,
and the disease is what you should cure,
then tie cough will stop of itself. The
most common cause of coughing is a
cold. Anodynes will promptly suppress
the cough, and preparations containing
chloroform, opium, etc, are used Tor
that purpose, but they do not cure the
cold. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy on
the other hand docs not suppress the
cough, but relieves it by removing from
the throat and lungs the mucus which
obstructed the breathing and allaying
the irritation and tickling in the throh.
1t also opens the secretions aud eitec
tually and permanently cures the cold as
we'll as the cough. For sale by Gibson
