then very sick with croup. Not
finding the doctor in, he left word

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some
relief until the doctorshould arrive.
In a few he returned, saying the
doctor need not come, as the child
was much better. The druggist,
Mr. Otto Scholz, says the family
has since recommended Chamber
