The Grip
"Before we can sympathize with
others, we most have suffered our
selves. " No one can relize the suffer
ing attendact upon an attack of the
grip, unless he has had the actual ex
perience. There is probably no disease
chat causes so much phsical and mental
agony, or which so successfully defies ,
medical aid, All danger from the grip,
however, may be avoided by the prompt
use of Chamberlain 9 Cough Remedy.
Among the tens of thousands who have
used this remedy, not one case has ever '
been reported that has resulted in
pneumonia or that has not recovered. .
