A prominent manufacturer has of
fered a prize of one thousand dollars
for tho best essay on preventive medi
cine, "believing that a proper exercise
of preventive medicine In of incal
culable benefit to the human race,"
Tho tendency of medical science Is to
ward preventive measures, The best
thought of tho world Is being given
to tho subject. It Is easier nnd better
to prevent than to cure. It has been
fully demonstrated that pneumonia,
one of the most dangerous diseases that
medical men have to contend with, can
bo prevented by the use of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. Pneumonia nt
ways results from a cold or from an
attack of influenza (grip), and It has
been observed thnt thiB remedy coun
teracts tho tendency of, these diseases
toward pneumonia. This has boon fully
proven In many thousands of cases
In which this remedy has been used
during the great prevalence of colds
and grip In recent years, nnd can bo
relied upon with Implicit confidence.
