If you are in any way interested in the
subject , experience of Mr. A. C. McGrew , a
merchant at Manhattan , Iowa , may be of
value to you. Road what he says :
"About a year ago I was very sick with a
severe attack of lung trouble. 1 tried a great
nany physicians , and they all told me I had
luick consumption , and I was entirely given
up , so weak I could hardly walk. I travel-
sd all through Nebraska and Colorado to
iy and get relief , but without effect. Often
imes after a severe spell of coughing my
riends would cover me up , expecting every
noment I would breathe my last. I was then
brought back home , and as a last resort ,
'like a drowning man catching at a straw , "
[ began using Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy
md the result is , I am strong , healthy and
well , attending to my business. Chamber-
ain's Cough Kemedy I shall recommend as
ong as I live , for to that I owe everything. "
