Finally wo moved to Bosque county, our present home, and one day I happened to seo an advertise ment of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with a testimonial of a mau who had boen cured by it. Tho case was so similar to my own that I concluded to try the remedy. The re sult was wonderful.
