Royce had no proof that Freneau had

But Freneau had left Royce to his

WHEN YOU HAVE A COLD

It is when you have severe cold
that you appreciate the good qualities
Of Chamberlain 8 Cough Remedy. Mrs.
Frank Croker, Pana, ILL.,, writes: "Our
FIVE year old son Paul caught severe
cold last winter that settled on his
lungs and he had terrible coughing
spells. We were greatly worried about
him as the medicine we gave him did
not help him in the least. A neighbor
spoke so highly of Chamberlain 8
Cough Remedy that I got a bottle Of it.
The first dose benefited him so much
that continued giving it to him until
he was cured.'
