WHEREIN THE DANGER LIES
The danger of opium in cough medicines lies not only in the drug but in the fact that opium checks the cough, causing the mucus to be retained in the air passages and form culture beds for germs of pneumonia, scarlet fever and diphtheria. Pneumonia is more likely to follow Avhooping cough or a cold when a preparation containing opium is given. There is - no opium or other narcotic in Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and being an expectorant it cleans out the germ culture beds, thus preventing pneumonia. Sold by all chemists and storekeepers. *
