The first indication of croup is hoarseness, and in a child subject to that disease it may be taken as a sure sign of the approach of an attack. Follow ing this hoarseness is a peculiar rough cough. If Chamber lain's Cough Remedy is given as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after thecroupy cough appears, it will prevent the attack. It is used in many thousands of homes in this broad land and never disap points the anxious mothers. We have yet to learn of a sin gle instance in which it has not proved effectual. . No other preparation can show such a record twenty-five years' con stant use without a failure. For sale by Hood fe Grantham. THE UNION'S Liberal Offer.
