How to Cure a Cold.

Be as careful as you can you will occasionally take cold and when you do, get medicine of known reliability, one that has an established reputation and that is certain to effect a quick cure. Such a medicine is Chamber lain's Cough Remedy. It has gained world wide reputation by it's re- markable cures of this most common ailment, and can always be depended upon. It acts on natures plan, re- lieves the lungs, aids expectoration, opens the secretions and aids nature in restoring the system to a healthy condition. During the many years in which it has been in general use we have yet to learn of single case of cold or attack of the grip having re- suited in pneumonia when this remedy was used, which shows conclusively that it is a certain preventive of that dangerous disease. Chamberlain Cough Remedy contains no opium or other narcotic and may be given as confidently to baby as to an adult. For sale by Sam. w. Dunaway, drug gist.
