Only a Cold

Are you i'll? is often answered.
"Oh, it's only cold" as if a cold was
a matter of little consequence, but
people are beginning to learn that
common cold is a matter not to be
trifled with, that some of the most
serious diseases start with a cold. As
soon as the first indication of a cold
appears take Chamberlains Cough
Remedy. Remember that the sooner
you get rid of your cold the less the
danger, and this remedy will help you
to throyr it off.
