GUARD THE CHILDREN'S CHESTS.

A FAMOUS DOCTOR'S MESSAGE TO

MOTHERS

Dr Gordon Stables, the famous English medical author, pens a timely warning about the ailments that affect children's chests, which should be taken to heart in every Australian home. The doctor says: "Do yon know that you are criminally negligent if you neglect the very first symptoms, of a cold settling on your child's chest'/

"Do you know that in Peps—if a box is kept handy— you have an ever-present remedy of a most pleasant character, but certain and sure in its good effects? "Don't neglect a cold then. Don't neglect a cough, for, be what it mav, as light as it may, there is always a serious side to it.

'Keep cool, mother, but do vour duty Don't hurry off to tho chemist's shop for common lozenges and mixtures of peppermint and laudanum, or other dangerous drugs that may mean death to vour boy. •7ust keen the bov in tho house a bit and GIVE HIM PEPS."

A box of Peps in the homo at this time of the year may save you pounds in doctor's bills, as well as- "long neriods of anxiety, if these wonderful tablets are used as soon a?- your child's sleep is disturbed by a cough.

Peps contain no opium or other harmful drugs, and can be given io a. child, either whole or crushed to a powder, with tho assurance of absolute benefit. Get Peps from your nearest .-tore or medicine vendor —ls fxl or 3s a box. Head Australasian Depot, 53 Pitt street. Sydnev.
