Beware of a Cough Symptom and a Remedy Ad
A vintage ad explains coughing signals serious diseases like consumption and brouphilia and promotes Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as a cure. It notes the remedy costs nothing if not beneficial and lists Hill Orr Drug Co. as the seller. Also includes a proverb about measuring men by feet or heads and a line about a gentleman combining courage and tenderness.
