I am the mother of eight children and have had a good deal of experience with medicines. Last summer my little daughter had the dysentery in the worst form. We thought I tried everything I could think of but nothing seemed td do any good. I saw by an advertisement in our paper that Chamberlin Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was highly recomended and got a bottle at once. It proved to one of the very best medicines we ever had in the house. I am anxious for every mother to know what an excellent medicine it is’. Had I known it at first it would have saved me a good deal of anxiety and my little daughter much suffering.— Yours truly, Mrs. F. Burdick, Liberty R. J. For sale by Hunt Bros.
