Why Colds Are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted ordin-
ary colds and recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do not
for a moment imagine that colds are
not dangerous. Everyone knows that
pneumonia and chronic catarrh have
their origin in common cold. Con-
sumption is not caused by cold but
the cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found lodgment. 1t is the same with
all infectious diseases. Diphtheria,
scarlet fever, measles and whooping
cough are much more likely to be
contracted when the child has cold.
You will, see from this that more real
danger turks in cold than in any
other of the common ailments. The
easiest and quickest way to cure a
cold is to take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy The many remarkable cures
effected by this preparation have
made it staple article of trade over
a large part of the world. For sale
