To use an eighteenth century phrase. this is an "o'er true tale." Having bap isned in a small Virginia town lu the winter of 1902, it is a. story very much of the present. Up to a short tune ago Mrs. John E. Harmon, of Melf i Station, Va., had no peisonal knowledge of the rare curative properties of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. "Lust January," she says, "my baby took a dreadful cold and at, one time I feared she would have pneumonia, but one of my neighbors told me how this remedy had cured her little lvy and I benan giving it to my baby at once and It soon cured her. I heartily thank the manufacturers of Chamber lam's Couuh Remedy for placing so ifreut a cure within my reach. 1 cannot recommend it too highly or say too much in its favor. I hope all who rend this will trv it and be convinced as I was." For sale by all Druggists.
