Long Distance Col- f lectioi a Specialty OVER rtEWUN DRUG CO. A Common Cold. We claim that if catching cold could be avoided some of the most danger ous and fatal diseases would never be heard of. A cold often forms a culture bed for germs of Infectious diseases. Consumption, pneumonia, diphtheria and scarlet fever, four of the most dangerous and fatal diseases, are of this class. The culture bed formed by the cold favors the development of the germs of these diseases, that would not otherwise find lodgment. There is little danger, however, of any of these diseases being contracted when a good expectorant cough medicine like Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is used. It cleans out these culture beds that favor the development of the germs of these diseases. That Is. why this remedy has proved so universal ly successful in preventing pneumonia. It not only cures your cold quickly, but minimizes the risk of contracting these dangerous diseases.
