Cured by Ono Bottle of Chamber lain's Cough Remedy. 'Wheu I had nu attack of the grip ast winter ( the fiecoud ouo ) I actually cured myself with one bottle of Ohnrn- borhilu's Cough Remedy , " snya Frank W. Perry , editor of the Enterprise , Shortsville , N. Y. . "This is the honest truth. I ut times kept fiou coughing mysulf to pieces by taking a tenspoouful of this remedy , nud when the coughing spoil would come ou at night I would take a dose aud it seemed that iu the briefest interval the cough would pass off aud I would go to sleep perfectly free from cough and its accompanying pains. To say that the remedy acted ns n most agreeable surprise is putting it very mildly. I had no idea that it would or could knock out the grip , simply because I had never tried it for such n purpose , but it did , nud it seemed with the Bocond attack of coughing the remedy caused it to not only bo of less duration , but the pains were far less severe , and I had not used the contents of ono bottle before Mr. Grip had bid mo adieu.
