UNCLE JOSH,
How One Doctor Successfully Treats
Pneumonia.
"In treating pneumonia," says Dr. W.
J. Smith, of Sanders, Ala., "the only
remedy I use for the lungs is Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. While, of course,
I would treat other symptoms with dif
ferent medicines, 1 have used this remedy
many times in my medical practice and
have yet failed to find a case where it
has not contro'led the trouble. I have
used it myself, as has also my wife for
coughs and colds repeatedly, and I tnoi-t
willingly and cheerfully recommend it as
superior to any other cough remedy to ui v
knowledge." Kor sale by L. Taggart.
