I gave her Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy according to direc tions and in two days she was well and able to go to school. 1 have used this remedy in my family for the past seven years and have never known it to fail,” says James Prendergast. . merchant, Annate Bay, Jamaica, West India Islands. The pains in the chest indicated an approaching attack of i pneumonia, which in this instance was undoubtedly wanted off by Champerlain’s Cough Remedy. It counteracts any tendency of a cold toward pneumonia. -Sold by Holthouse Callow A Co. | »
