The Grip.

"Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered our­selves." No one can realize the suffering attellda'nt upon an attack of the grip, unless he has' had the actual experience. There is prob­ably no disease that causes so much physical and mental agony, or which so successfully defies medi­cal, aid. All danger from the grip, however, may be avoided by the prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Among the, tens of thou­sands who 'have used this remedy, not' oue case has ever been reported that has resulted in pneumonia,or that has not recovered. For sale by dealers everywhere.
