Many Sleepless Nights, Owing to
Persistent Cough.. Relief Found
at Last
"For several winters past my wife
has been troubled with' a most persis
tent and disagreeable cough, which
invariably extended over a period of
several weeks and caused her many
sleepless nights," writes Will J. Hay
ner, editor of the Burley, Colo., Bul
letin. "Various remedies were tried each
year, with no beneficial results. In
November last the cought again put
in an appearance and my wife, acting'
on the suggestion of a friend, pur
chased a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. The result was in
deed marvelous. After three doses
the cough entirely disappeared and
has not manfiested itself since," This
remedy is for. sale by Frank Hart
and leading druggists.
