October 9, 1908. On August .‘TO, ’OH, 1 contracted cold and developed Grippe and was laid up fiive weeks. My bronchial tubes were badly af fected, which caused me to cough continually and prevented my sleeping at night. I tried all the old remedies which usually gave me relief but failed. Johnson's Chill and Fever Tonic was recommended to me as a guaranteed cure for grippe and colds and I was pursuaded * to try it. After taking it according to directions for one week, I found myself entirely cured of my cold and grippe, and my sys tem in first-class condition. I regard it as one of the best medi cines l have ever used ir my family and can cheerfully recom mend it to anyone suffering from a like trouble or general debilitated system. B. G. BENTON.
