How to Break Up a Cold.
It may be a surprise to many to
learn that a severe cold can be com
pletely broken up In one or two days'
time. The first symptoms of a cold
are a dry, loud cough, a profuse waterj
discharge from the nose, and a thin
white coating on the tongue. When
Chamberlain's cough remedy Is taken
every hour on the first appearance of
these symptoms, It counteracts the ef
fect of the cold and restores the sys
tem to a healthy condition within
day or two. For sale by all leading
