Worth Considering

The question liz not so much how you
contract cold but how to get rid OF
it with the least loss Of time and In
convenience. II you will consider the
experience Of others under similar cir
c1,mstanccs, who have been most sue
essful in checking their colds, in their
BEGINNING. II you will secure bottle
Of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with
