Gents: I have used many medicines but think I got the best results’from your Syrup Pepsin. One other member of my family also used it with the same happy effect. The complaint for which we used the Syrup was a stomach trouble called in the books Gastralgia, a great deal of acid eructations (belchings) with flatulence of the stomach. Very truly, Dr, W. E. McDivitt. Holthouse, Callow & Co, f Dangers of the grip. The greatest danger from lagrippe is of its resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable care is used, however, and Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy taken, all danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for lagrippe we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneumonia which showsconclusively that this remedy is a certain preventive of that dangerous disease. It will cure lagrippe in less time than any other treatment. It is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by Holthouse, Callow & Co. f Notice to Contractors.
