The Grip

Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered our selves" No one can relize the suffer ing attendart upon an attack of the grip, unless he has had the actual ex- perience. There is probably no disease that causes so much phsical and mental agony, or which SO successfully defies medical aid, All danger from the grip, however, may be avoided by the prompt use of Chamberlain Cough Remedy. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy, not one case has ever been reported that has resulted in pneumonia or that has not recovered.
