Chamberlain's Colic anet Diarrhoea
Remedy.
This is unquestionably one of the
most successful medicines in use for
bowel complaints. A few doses of it
will cure an ordinary attack of di
arrhoea. It has been used in nine ep
idemics of dysentery with perfect
success. It can always bj depended
upon to give prompt relief in cases
of colic and cholera morbus. When
reduced with water and sweetened
it is pleasant to take. Every family
should keep this remedy at hand.
