LODTZ „ "When I bad an attack of grip 4ast winter (the second one) I actually cured myself with one bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy," says Frank W. Perry, Editor of the Enterprise, Shortsville. N. Y. "This is the honest trnth. I at times kept from coughing myself to pieces by taking a teaspoonful of this remedy, and when the coughing spell would come on at night I would take a dose and it seemed that in the briefest interval the cough would pass off and I would go to sleep perfectly free from cough and its accompanying pains. To say that the remedy acted as a most ag- greeable surprise is putting it very mild­ ly. I had no idea that it would or could knock out the grip, simply be­ cause I had never tried it for such a purpose, but it did, and it seemed with the second attack of coughing the rem­ edy caused it to not only be of less dur­ ation, but the pains were far less se vere, and I had not used the contents of one bottle before Mr. Grip had bid me adieu.
