A Serious Mistake. To the average man it seems childish to 1 doctor & cold, and unless it becomes par- | | ticularly snnoying to him little or no atten- | tion is given it. Often a cold contracted in the winter is allowed to run until the open- | ing of spring. This is a grave mistake, as even though the Warm westher bring relief, the system is thereby weakened and rendered susceptible to disease A cold should never be neglected, whether it be & child or en sdult who is aficted, as health and often lifc is risked. A bottle of Cham- berlain's Cough Remedy, costing but a small | amount, will bring speedy relief and all | dangerous consequences will be avoided. | HYMENEAL. Oxtdiek-Hipsley.
