The Grip.

'Before we can sympathize with
others, we must have suffered ourselves. "
No one can realize the suffering attend
ant upon an attack of the grip, unless
he has had the actual experience. There
is probably no disease that causes so
much physical and mental agony, or
which so successfully defes medical aid.
All danger from the grip, however, may
be avoided by the prompt use of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. Among the
tens of thousands who have used this
remedy not one case has ever been re-
ported that has resulted in pneumonia
or that has not recovered. For sale by
