The Grip. •‘Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered ourselves. ”No one can realize the suffering attendant upon an attack ot the grip, unless he has had the actual experience. There is probably no disease that cause so much and mental agony, or which so successfully defies medical aid. All danger from the grip, however, may be avoided by the prompt use of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. Among the ten of thousands who have used this remedy, not one case has ever been reported that has resulted in pneiynonia or that has aot recovered. For sale by B. F. Fendig. -
