Following this hoarsness is a peculiar rough cough. If Chamber- i Iain's CoukIi Remedy Is given aa the child becomes hoarse, or even after i the croupy cough appears, It will pre vent the attack. It Is used in many ; thousands of homes In this broad land and never disappoints the anx ious mothers. We have yet to learn of a single instance in which It has not proved effectual. No other prepa- ration can snow sucn a record twenty-five years' constant use with- out a failure. For sale by Charier j Rogers. j LADIES' TAILOR-MADE BUTTS.
