Too much care cannot be exercised
in selecting a cough medicine for
children. It should be pleasant to take,
contain no harmful drug and*most

that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
meets these conditions. It Is a favo
rite with many mothers.
15 EGGS A DAY FROM

Mr. Duni's Hens Incressed Every Day
Plan i* Basily Tried.
"We have 23 chickens and hadn't
had an egg all winter. In five days
after fredlng Don Sung, we got four
to five eggs a day in three weeks,
we were getting 10 to 12 eggs a day:
In five weeks we got IS to 19 eggs a
day.."—John Dunl, Box 102, Cherry
Valley i»a.
Mr.' Dunl started giving his hens
Don Sung in January, In zero weath
er. He now keeps his hens busy In
cold weather, when hens usually stop
laying. A trial oosts nothing. Here's
our offer:
Give your hens Don Sung and
watch results for one month. If you
don't find that it pays for itself and
pays you a good profit besides, sim
ply tell us and your money will be
promptly refunded.
Don Sung (Chinese for egg-la.ylng)
works directly on ttad egg-laying or
gans, and is also a splendid tonlo. It
la easily given in the feed, improVe%
the hen's health, makes her stronger
and more active In any weather, and
starts her laying.
Try Don Sung for 30 days and If
it doesn't get you the
