Becau»e you have coiitracttfd ordinary colda and recovered from them without treat- ment of any kind, do not for a muiuent im- agine that colds are not danKcroua. Everv- ona knows that iiiicuniouiaana chronic oatarrli have ttieirongin in acoinmon cold. Gonsuinp- tiim ia not caused by a cold but the cold me- pares tnc system for the reception aud develop- ment of the germs that would not otherwise have found l<Mlgement. It is tho same with ail infectious diseases. Diphtheria, scarlet fever, nieaalea and whooping cough ar€ much mure likely to be omtracted when the child ha* a cold. Yon will see from this that more real danger lurks iua cold than in other of the coniiiion ailments. The easiest and quickest way to cure a cold is to take ChaiiilK:rlain"B Cough Remedy. Tl.e many remarkable cures effected by this preparation have made i'. a staple article of tnwJeover a large jwirt of the world. For sale by W. E. Kicfaardsun. Maxwell Items Miss Mini and Master Geo.
