A Common Cold.
We claim that if catching cold
could be avoided some of the most
dangerous and fatal diseases would
never be heard of. A cold often
forms a culture bed for germs of
infectious diseases. Consumption,
pneumonia, diphtheria, and scarlet
fever, four of the most dangerous
and fatal diseases, are of this class
The culture bed formed by the, cold
favors the development of the germs
of these diseases, that would not
o herwlse find lodgment. There is
ii'.V.e danger, however, of any of
these dUeases being contracted when
a good expectorant cough medicine
like Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
Is used. It cleans out these culture
beds that favor the development of
the germs of these diseases. That Is
why this remedy has proved so uni
ver sally successful in preventing
pneumonia. It not only cures your
cold quickly, but minimizes the risk
of contracting these dangerous dis
eases. - For sale by Burnaugh &
