There are many people who have
used Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Dlarrhoea Remedy with splendid re-
suits, but who are unknown because
they have hesitated about giving
testimonial of their experience for

are none the less friends of this remedy
They have done much toward making
it household word by their personal
recommendations to friends and
neighbors. 1t is good medicine to
have in the home and is widely known
for its cures of diarrhoea and all forms
of bowel trouble. For sale by Corner
