Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
Best for Children
We are just in receipt of a packet of ladies'
diamond rings, which, with mounting and all
will be retailed at from $20 to $50.
To be sure the stones are not as large as a
walnut, but QUALITY is apparent in each
—in fact the stones are PERSONAL selec
tions from the stocks of several of America's
foremost importers. The mountings are in
the most approved "Tiffany" and chased
styles.
Of course we show an abundance of larger
sized rings—also a representative stock of
loose stones—but in this announcement we
dwell particularly on those dainty little rings
at from $20 to $50—they're |the "liveliest"
ever shown here at such a price.

HUGH CAMPBELL, JR.
Hugh Campbell, Jr., has had croup time and again, but his parents fearett
no serious results when they had Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in the house.
It always* relieved him promptly. When he had toTTsilitis we found that
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy jvas the best medicine we could give him, and I
liac: a chest full of different medicines. Chamberlain's was. the one of my
choice because it always cured and because It was pleasant and safe to take.
Mrs. Hugh Campbell, this boy's mother says, "I wish every mother of youpg
children that have croup was as familiar with Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
as I am. The first cause of my pinning my faith to this wonderful cough med
icine was on account of being informed that it contained no opium or .other,
narcotic, and that it was as safe to give to a child as to an adult."
