Is it Right vor an Editor to Recommend Patent Medicines'? From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, N.C. — It may ba a question whether the editor of a newspaper haß the right to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicines which flood the matket,yet as a preventive of suffering we feel it a duty to say a good word for Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known and used this medicine in our family for twenty years and have always found it reliable. In many cases a dose of this remedy would save hours of suffering while, a physician is awaited. We do not believe in depending implicitly on any medicine for a cure, but we do believe that if a bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept oti hand and administered at the .inception of an attack much suffering might be avoided and in very maoy cases the presence of a physician would not be required. At least this haß been our experience during tho past twelve years. For eale by Evan Evans, chemist, Lawrence.
