Safe Medicine for Children.

lis it safe?" is the first question
to be considered when buying a
cough medicine for children. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy has long
been a favorite with mothers ofyoung
children, as it contains no opium or
other narcotic, and may be given to
a child as confidently as to an adult.
1t is pleasant to take, too, which is oi
great importance when a medicine
must be given to young children
This remedy is most effectual in re-
lieving coughs, colds and Group. Oh
