“For several winters past my wife
has been troubled with a most persis
tent and disagreeable cough, which in
variably extended over a period of sev
eral weeks and caused her many sleep
less nights,” writes Will J. Hayner,
editor of the Burley, Colo., Bulletin.
“Various remedies were tried each
year, with no beneficial results. In
November 1 st the cough again put in
an appearance and my wife, acting on
the suggestion of a friend, purchased
a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough Re
medy. The result was, indeed, mar
velous. After three doses the cough
entirely disappeared and has not mani
fested itself since.” This remedy is
