Good Cough Medicine for Children

NOOd SOdSIl IOI SHIIOICUs
 The season for coughs and colds is now at hand and too much care can not be used to protect the children. A child is much more likely to con tract diphtheria or scarlet fever when he has a cold. The quicker you cure his cold the less the risk. Chamber lain's Cough Remedy is the sole re- liance of many mothers, and few of those who have tried it are willing to use any other. Mrs. F. F. Starcher of Ripley, w. Va, says: q have nev- CT used anything other than Chamber lain's Cough Remedy for my children and it has always given good satisfac- tion." This remedy contains no opi- um or other narcotic and may be giv- en as confidently to a child as to an adult. For sale by Sam w. Dunaway, Druggist.
