A woman who has bad experience

vent any dangerous consequences
from it. She’says: “Our three
children took whooping cough last
summer, our baby boy being only
three months oil, and owing to our
giving thorn Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy they lost none of their
plumpness and came out in much
better health than other children
whose parents did not use this rem
