DRUGGISTS KNOW
BEST COLD CURES
THEY USE THE MOST Sue
OESsFUL THEMSELVES.
Many Druggists Use Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy in Their
Own Families.


Everyone must realize the dangers attend
ing a severe cold, and that it Is always pru-
dent TO remain in doors until the danger is
past. Many, however, do not feel able to
lose the time and will be interested in know
ing the quickest way to break up cold and
to avoid the dangerous consequences which
so often follow. Druggists who handle oil
kinds of medicines and are familiar with
prescriptions Of the best physicians, know
which medicines are the most successful, and
when in need Of medicine for their own
use will of course choose the one which is
likely to be the most prompt and most eff
fectual. 1t has been observed that many
druggists use Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
themselves and in their families, and take
pleasure in testifying to its good qualities.
Mr.. E. N. Lyons, the leading druggist Of
Broadhead, Wis, says: II have sold Cham
