I Health is More Expensive Than
Any Cure.
This country Is now filled with
people who migrate across the con
tinent in all directions seeking that
which gold cannot buy. Nine-tenths
of them are suffering from throat
and lung trouble or chronic catarrh
resulting from neglected colds, and
spending fortunes vainly trying to
regain lost health. Could every suf
ferer but undo the past and cure
that first neglected cold, all this
sorrow, pain, anxiety and expense
could have been avoided. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is famous for
its cures of colds, and can always be
depended upon. Use it and the more
serious diseases may be avoided.
