Summer Complaint

During the hot weather Of the
summer months some member of
almost every family is likely to be
troubled with an unnatural loose
ness of the bowels, and it is of the
greatest importance that this be
treated promptly, which can only
be done when the medicine is kept
at hand. Mrs. F. F. Scott, Scots
vile, N. Y, states, I first used
Chamberlain Collie and Diarrhoe
Remedy as much as five years ago.
At that time I had a severe attack
of summer complaint and was suf-
fering intense pain. One dose re-
lieved me. Other members or my
family have since used it with like
results. " Moss Pharmacy.
