facturers of Chamberlains Cough Eem edy as follows Sixteen years ago when our first child was a baby he was subject to croupy spells and we would be very uneasy about him We began using Chamberlains Cough Remedy in 1S87 and finding it such a reliable remedy for colds and croup we have never been without it in tho house since that time We have 5 children and have given it to all of them with good results One good feature of this remedy is that it is not disagreeable to take and our babies really like it Another is that it is not dangerous and there is no risk from giving an overdose I congratulate you upon the success of your remedy For sale by all druggists When bilious try a dose of Chamber lains Stomach and Iiiver Tablets and realize for once how quickly a first class up-to-date
