C la ra n te In 1862, wheD I served my coun try as a private in Company A, 167th Pennsylvania Volunteers, I con tracted chronic diarrhoea. It has given me a great deal of trouble ever since, I have tried a dozen different medicines and several prominent doctors without any per manent relief. Not long ago n friend sent me a sample bottle of Chamberluin's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and after that I bought and took a 50-cent bottle; and now I can say that I am entirely cured. I cannot be thankful enough to you for this great Keroedy, and recommend it to all suffering vet erans. If in doubt write me. Yours gratefully, H enry S t e in b e b o e ii , Allentown, Pa.
