Yours with respeck, Mrs'B Croup is a terror to' young mothers. To post them concerning the first symptoms, and treatment is the object of this item. The first indication of croup is hoarseness.

If Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is given as soon as the child becomes hoarse or even after the rough cough has appeared it will prevent the attack. It has never been known to fail.
