Mother Tells How She Saved Hei
Little Daughter's Life.
I a.u the mother of eight children
and have bad a great deal of experience
with medicines. Last summer my
little daughter had the dysentery in
its worst form. We thought the would
die. I tried everything I could think
of, but notbipg seemed to do her a y
good. I saw by an advertisement in
oiir paper that Chamberlain's Colio,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy waa
highly recommended and sent and got
a bottle at once. It proved to be one
of the very best medicines we ever
had in the house. It saved my little
daughter's life. I am.anxipus for every
mother to know what an excellent
medicine it is. Had I known it at first
ir would nave saved me a great deal
of anxiety and my little daughter
much suffering.?Yours truly, Mrs.
