Dollars and Cents

Counting it only in dollars and
cents, how much did that last cold
cost you? A man may not always
stop work when he has a cold, but
perhaps it would be better if he did.
1t takes about ten days to get COM
pletely rid of a cold under the usual
treatment. That time can be much
shortened by taking Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and proper al of
yourself, in fact, a bottle of this rem
edy in the house is a mighty good in
vestment during the winter and
spring months.
