A Timely Suggestion. This is the season of the year when the prudent and careful housewife replenishes her supply of Chamberlain's Cough llemedy. It is certain to be needed before.the winter is over, and results are much more prompt and satisfactory when it is kept at hand and given as soon as the cold is contracted and before it has become settled in the system. In almost every instance a severe cold may be warded off by taking this remedy freely as sobn as the first indication of the cold appears. There 's no danger in giving it to children for it coutains no harmful substance.-'It is pieasaut 10 lane?DOtn adults afld children like it. Buy it and you will i?et the best. It always .cures.
