i How to Prevent Pneumonia
i
You are perhaps aware that
paeumonia always results from
a cold or from an attack of la
grippe. During the epidemic
of la grippe a few year vago
when so many cases resulted in
pneumonia, it was observed
that the attack was never fol
lowed by that disease when
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
was used. It contracts any
tendency of a cold or la grippe
to result in that dan?orous dis
ease. It is the host remedy in
the world for bad colds and la
grippe. Every bottle warrant
