BEWARE OF A COUGH.

PEPS STOP BRONCHITIS AND WINTER CHEST TROUBLES.

This is a dangerous month. Coughs and colds come on with alarming suddenness, and there is usually a tendency to treat them lightly. . That is a big mistake^ and only leads to worse trouble, later on in the iorm of bronchitis and chronic chest weakness. Therefore, never neglect the first sign of a cold. Always carry a box of Peps, and immediately you teel a tickling in the throat and want to cough, or stare shivering on getting indoors, put a Peps tablet in your mouth and let '% gradually melt away. The medicinal fumes given off by the dissolving Peps will mingle with the air you breathe, and reach every nook and corner of the breathing tubes and lungs, where the danger lies, that's the way to check a cold.

Peps reach the lungs direct. It ih next door to useless swallowing liquid mixtures and .ordinary lozenges into the stomach. There is no direct passage between the stomach and the bronchial tubes and lungs. Ordinary medicine only touches the lungs indirectly. When a Peps tabiet is in the mouth, every breath taken strengthens you? defence against throat and che« trouble. If you are a bronchial sufferer, Peps melt away those stubborn, thick plugs of phlegm that choke the breathing tubes and cause those painful coughing bouts night and morning. There is no other throat and chest medicine that has the unique features possessed by Peps. This novel remedy is unique in composition, unique in tlv, way it acts, and unique for its uniformly successful results*. It has the endorsement of nurses and doctors, and brings a long-needed blessing to the home. The housewife, the children, the business man, and workers in a thousand industries, find a true friend in Peps, which hold coughs and colds at ba-y, prevent influenza, and keep the lun^s and chest clear of dust. In every house a box of Peps should be kept always handy. l s 6d and 3s per box at all chemists.
