DANGER OF BRONCHIAL COUGHS.

PEPS END THE TROUBLE ONCE AND FOR ALL. Bronchial troubles are dangerous because they settle so near the lungs. Generally it is the common bronchial cold with its nasty cough and “made-up” feeling that, neglected for days, lays one up at last with pleurisy or pneumonia. The introduction of the Peps treatment has rendered obsolete the ever-unsatis-factory method of trying to cure throat and lung troubles by means of liquid medicine. Not only do old-fashioned cough-mixtures frequently contain dangerous drugs like opium, morphia, chloral, but, being liquid, they are merely swallowed into the stomach and cannot, therefore, even touch the lungs where the trouble lies. Herein are the two distinguishing points about Peps: First, they do not contain any trace ot opium, laudanum, or any other dangerous drugs occurring in old-fashioned cough medicines; second, they are a breatheable remedy. That is, as a Peps tablet, removed from its preserving silver jacket, is made to dissolve on the tongue, certain valuable fumes are given off which, mixing with the air we breathe, are at once taken down the windpipe and passed straight into the innermost recesses of the lungs and cheat. The soothing effect of these Pepa fumes on the throat and bronchi is marvellous, and brings not merely strength to the chest, but by repairing the delicate membrane torn by constant coughing, fortifies the windpipe abainst “coldgerms” and against further attacks of disease. Peps ean be freely used by young and old; and because of their uniqueness, convenience, and unequalled efficiency, these wonderful breatheable tablets should be kept always handy to ward off coughs, colds, bronchitis, sore throat, hoarseness, wheeziness, etc. Of all chemists.
