Modest Claims Often Garry the
Most Conviction.

When Maxim, the famous gun
inventor, placed his gun before
a committee of judges, he stated
it's carrying power to be much be-
low what he felt sure the gun
would accomplish. The result of
the trial was therefore a great
surprise, instead of disappoint-
ment. 1t is the same with the
manufacturers Of Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. They do not publicly
boast of all the remedy will ac-
complish, but prefer to let the
users make the statements.
What they do claim, is that it will
positively cure diarrhoea, dysen-
terry, pains in the stomach and
bowels and has never been known
to fail. For sale by DIR. R. D.
