Danger Signal.

If the fro bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the FIRE? 1t is much the
same way with cough. A cough is
danger signal as much as fire
bell. You should no more try to sup
press it than to stop fire bell when
it is ringing, but should cure this dis
ease that causes the coughing. This
can nearly always be done by taking
Cbamberlain's Cough Remedy. Many
have used it with the most beneficial
results, 1t is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often fol
lows bad cold or an attack of the
grip, Mrs. Thomas Beeching, An
