Governor Blease says that he is sure to take away Senator Smith's job from him next summer.

An expectorant like Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is what is needed. That cleans out the culture beds or breeding places for the germs of pneumonia and other germ diseases. That is why pneumonia never results from a cold when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is used. It has a world-wide reputation for its cures.
