Cure4 by One Bottle of CKamberlali'a Couch Remedy. When I had an attack of the grip last winter (the second one) I actually cured myself with one bottle of Cham bnrlain's Cough Remedy," savs Frank W, Terry, Editor of the Enterprise, at Shorlaville, N. Y. "This is the honest truth. I at time kept from coughing myself to pieces by taking a teaspeonful of this remedy, and when the coughing spall would coma on at night I would take a dose and it seemed that In the briefest interval the cough would pasa off and I would go to sleep ierfectly free from cough and Its acoompuning pains. To say that the remedy aled as a most agreeabU surprise is putting ia very mildly. I had no icfe that It would or could knock nut the grip, simply because I had never tried it for such a ptiqtoae, but it did, and it seemed with the second attack of nought ng (lie remedy caused it to not only bo of leas duration, but the pains were far teas as vers, nod I had not i sad the -contents of on bottle he for Mr. Orp had bid me adieu.'
