We do not heshate to guarantee them every time, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price, if satisfactory results do not follow their use. These remed'es have,won their great popularity purely on their merits. A. R. Pierce, druggist. The laws of health are taught in the schools, but not in away to be of much practical benefit and are never illustra ted by living examples, which in many cases might easily be done. If some scholar, who had just contracted a cold, was brought before the school, so that all could hear the dry, loud cough and know its significance, see the thin white coating on the tongue and later, as the cold developed, see the profuse watery expectoration and thin watery discharge from the nose, not one of them would ever forget what the fust symptoms of a cold were. The scholar should then be given Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy freely, that all might see that even a severe cold could be cured in one or two days, or at least greatly mitigated, when properly treated as soon as the first symptoms appear. This remedy is famous for it’s cures of couhs, cold and croup. It Is made especially for these diseases and is the most prompt and most reliable medicine known for the purpose. 50 cent bottles for sale by W. H. Nachtrieb. d Ripans Tabules.
