Good Cough Medicine For Children. The season for coughs and colds is now at hand and too much care cannot be used to protect the children. A child is much more likely to contract diptheria or scarlet fever when he has a cold. The quicker you cure his cold the less the risk. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the sole reliance of many mothers, and few of those who have tried it are willing to use any other. Mrs. F. F. Staicher, of Ripley. W. Va., says: "I have never used anything other than Chamberlain's Coacrh Remeriv for my children and it has always given good satisfaction." This remedy contains no opium or other narcotic and may be given as confidently to a child as to an adult. For sale by Kaufmann Drug Co. Mrs. McEaney's Experience. Mrs. M.

After taking two bottles I felt like' a new person, and feel it my duty to tell suffering women what Foley's Kidney Remedy did for me." For sale at Derrick's Drug Store.
