Over Thirty.Five Years.

In 1872 there was great deal of
diarrhoea, dysentery and cholera in
fantum. 1t was at this time that Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy was first brought into use. II
proved more successful than any other
remedy for treatment, and has for
thirty-five years maintained that record.
From small beginning its sale and
use has extended to every part of the
United States and to many foreign
countries. Nine druggists out of ten
will recommend it when their opinion is
asked, although they have other medi-
cines that pay them a greater profit.
II can always be depended upon. even
in the most severe and dangerous cases.
