It may bo n question whether the
editor of a newspaper lias tho right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which Hood tho
market, yet as a proventivo of suffering
wo feel it a duty to say a good word for
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Itomedy. Wo havo known and
used this medicine iu our family lor
twenty years and bayo ulwnyB found it
reliable. Inlmany cases a dose of this
romedy would auve hours of suffering
while a physician is awaited. Wo do
not bolieve Iu deponding implicitly on
.. . i. t
uny meuictno lor a cure, o-i wo uu
believe that if a bottlo of (Jhamueriain s
Diarrhoea Remedy was kept on band
and administered at the inception of on
attack, much suffering might bo avoided
and In very many cases tho presence of
physician would not bo required. At
least this lias been our experience
during thu past twenty years, .for sale
