Getting Rid of Colds.

The easiest and quickest way to gel
rid of cold is to take Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy. This preparation has
been in use for many years and its
value fully proven. No matter What
remedy you use, however. care must be
taken not to contract a second cold
before you have recovered from the
first one, and there is serious danger
of this. A man of middle age or Older
should go to bed and stay in bed until
fully recovered. It is better to stay in
bed three days at tile start than three
weeks later on.-Adv. t tn S.
