Many Sleepless Nights, Owing to Per-
sistent Cough. Relief Found at
Last

For several winters past my wife
has been troubled with most persistent
and digagreeabe cough, which invariably
extended over period Of several weeks
and caused her many sleepless nights,
writes Will j. Hayner editor of the
Burley, Colo, Bulletin. "Various RENE
dies were tried each year, with no bene-
fetal results IN November last the
cough again put in an appearance and
my wife, acting on the suggestion of a
friend, purchased bottle Of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. The result was
indeed marvellous. After three doses
the cough entirely disappeared and has
not manifested itself since" This
remedy is for sale by F. b. Cottingham

Mrs. William Walston, living on

have great confidence in Doan's Kidney
Pills as they have proven ofgreat bene-
fit to my sister. For a long time she
