which she had suffered for six years.

years. No matter what l ate l would

aches every day and, sometimes, so
bad as to almost drive me distracted.

haust me. My nerves were so shat

half my condition was so bad / had

Many physicians believe that any
one who has a bad cold should be COM
pletely isolated to prevent other men,
be's of the family and associates from
contracting the disease, as colds are
about as catching as measles. One
thing sure-the sooner one rids him
self of cold the less the danger. and

lain's Cough Remedy to aid you in
