WINTER COUGHS AND COLDS.

PEPS, THE WONDERFUL BREATHING MEDICINE IN SOLID TABLET FORM.

Most people have only too good reason to dread the rapid approach of winter, with its fog and frost, cutting winds and clammy atmosphere. Most of us have suffered from bad colds, winter coughs, tender throats, or sore chests, to say nothing of the fear of pleurisy, pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, and asthma. Peps, the wonderful medicine compressed in solid tablet form, have robbed winter of all these terrors. Peps are not only a safe cure for all throat and chest ailments, but a certain safeguard against all those colds and chills which are the gateway of all throat and chest troubles. With a box of Peps always handy you may defy coughs, colds, and bronchitis, even in the worst weather.

You take a Peps tablet out of the silver jacket in which it is sealed, and place it on the tongue. As the tablet dissolves, powerful healing, strengthening, and germ-producing fumes arise, and are breathed direct into the bronchial tubes and lungs. In this unique fashion the throat and chest are cleared of phlegm and other impurities, lurking germs of disease are destroyed, the membranes, injured and inflamed by incessant coughing, are soothed and healed, and all the breathing passages are strengthened and toned-up. The uselessness of liquid remedies for lung troubles is obvious to all, since it is quite impossible to swallow a liquid into the langs, or even into the voicebox. All liquids pass straight into the stomach, and most old-fashioned cough mixtures and cough cures are dangerously loaded with opium, chloral, morphia, and other narcotics and sedatives. Peps are entirely free from these abominable drugs, and are safe alike for young and old. The Peps method of compressing a breathable medicine into solid tablet form is the latest triumph of modern chemistry, and has realised the aim of many great specialists in throat and lung troubles. Peps are sold in 1/6 and 3/ boxes by chemists and stores, or post free from the Peps Pastille Co., Sydney, for same prices. Refuse worthless substitutes. ■ , . -
