There is a lesson in the work of the
thrifty farmer. He knows that the
bright sunshine may last but a day and
he prepares for the shower which arc
so liable to follow. So it shou'd be
with every household. Dysentery,
diarihoea and cholera morbus may at
tack some member of the home without
warning. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrohea Remedy, which is the ;
best Known medicine for these diseases,
should always be kept at hand, as im
mediate treatment is necessarry, and
delay may prove fatal.
