No one who is acquainted with its good qualities can be surprised at the great popularity of Champerlain's Cough Remedy. It notonly cures colds and grip effectually and permanently but prevents these diseases from resulting in pneumonia. It is also a certain cure for croup.

Whooping cough is not dangerous when this remedy is given. It contains no opium or other harmful substance and may be given as confidently to a baby as to an adult. It is also pleasant to take. When all of these facts are taken into consideration it is not surprising that people in foreign lands, as well as at home, esteem this remedy very highly and very few are willing to take any other after once used it.
