Children are much more likely to con­
tract the contagious diseases when they
have colds. Whooping cough, diphtheria,
scarlet fever and consumption are dis­
eases that are often contracted when
the child has a cold. That ia why all
medical authorities say beware of colds.
For the quick cure of colds you will find
nothing better than Chamberlain’a

pended upon and is pleasant and safe to
take. For sale by all druggists.

missed by many, even to the little
tots for whom he always extended
a hearty greeting. His kind visage
ever radiant through a luxuriant
beard, which he has worn since 1861
when he shouldered a musket in the
civil war, will likewise be a memo­
