Would Not suffer So Ag«ln for Fifty Times Its Price. I awoke last night with severe pain in my stomach. I uever felt so badly in all my life. When I came down to work this morniug 1 felt so weak I could hard­ ly work I went to Miller & McCurdy's flrug store and they recommended Cham­ berlain's Colic Cholera and diarrhoea Remedy. It worked like magic and one dose fixed me all right It certainly is the finest thing I ev »r used for stomach trouble. I shall not be without it in my home hereafter, for I should not care to endure the sufferings of last night again for fifty times it* price.--G H, WILSON, Liveryman, Burgettstowu, Washington Co , Pa.
