Nothing to Four
The question of Injutious substanc s
in medicines which has been nsiisting
tbe minds of many people, does not con
corn those who use Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Mothers need have no
besitarcy in continuing to give it to
their little ones, as it contains absolute
ly nothing injurious. This remedy is
not only perfectly safe to give small
children, but is a medicine of great
worth and merit. It has a world wide
reputation for its cures of coughs, cold*
and croup and can always be relied up
on. For sale by Wm. Britt.
