In 1ST2 when I served my country as a private in company A, 167th Penn sylvania Voluntpero, I contracted chronic diarrhoea. It has given me a great deal of trouble ever since. I have tried a dozen different medicines and several prominent doctors without any perma nent relief. Not long ago a friend sent me a sample bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and after that I bought and took a 50 cent bottle ; and now I can say that I am entirely cured. I cannot be thankful enough to you for this great Remedy, and recommend it to all Buffering vet erans. If in doubt write me. Yours gratefully, Hexebv Steinberoer, Allen town, Pa. Sold by G. A.
