The season for coughs and colds is now at hand and too 'much cafe cannot be used to protect the chil dren, A child is much more likely to contract diphtheria or scarlet fever when he has a cold. Ths quicker you cure his cold the less the risk. Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy is the sole reliance of many mothers, and few of those who have tried it are willing to use any other. Mrs. F. F. Starcher, of Ripley, W. Va., says, "I have never used any thing other than Chamberlain' Cough Remedy for my children and it .has always given good satisfac tion." This remedy contains no opium or other narcotic and may be given as confidently to a child as to an adult. For sale by Frank Hart and leading druggists.
