Recognized Advantages.

You will find that Chamberlain 8 Cough
Remedy has recognized advantages over
most medicines in use for coughs and
colds. 1t does not suppress cough but
loosens and relieves it. 1t aids expector-
alton and opens the secretions, which en-
ables the system to throw off cold. 1t
counteracts any tendency of a cold to re-
suit in pneumonia. 1t contains no opium
or other narcotic, and may be given to a
child as confidently as to an adult. For
sale by all dealers.
