What is the one of making a better article than your competitor if you can not get a better price for it 7 Ans. As there is no difference in the price the public will buy only the better, so that while our profits may be smaller on a tingle sale they will be much greater in the aggregate. How can you get the public to know your make is tbe best? If both articles are brought promi nently before the public both are certain to be tried and the public will very quickly pass judgment on them and use only the better one. This explains the large tale on Cham berlain's Cough Remedy. The people have been using it for years and have found that it can always be depended upon. They may occasionally take up with some fashionable noveltv put forth with exaggerated claims, but are certain to return to the one remedy that they kuow to be reliable, and for coughs, colds and croup there is nothing equal to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
