FIFTY YEARS OF SERVICE.
Over fifty years of useful and invalu. able service stands to the credit of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and in all that time we have never heard of single dissatisfied user, her a dealer who is not glad to recommend it in the highest terms to his
patrons. Those who in childhood took it for coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough are now giving it to their children and grand children with the same good results. For aulo everywhere.
