Good Reason for His Enthusiasm.
When a man has suffered for sev
eral days with colic, diarrhoea or oth
er forms of bowel complaint and is
then cured sound and well by one or
two doses of Chamberlain's Colic, Chol
era and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often
the case, it is but natural that he
should be enthusiastic in his praise 6i
the remedy, and especially is this the
case of, a severe attack when life is
threatened. Try it when in need of
such a remedy. It never fails. ' Sold
