 DR HASsoN's VEGETABLE CHEMICAL POWDERS will break mp colds at once, without sweating, dieting interruption of business, or the of hot stimulating and burning compounds, herb teas. candies, baisams or any other disagreeable, ncon- venient and nanseating doses; they do not cause the least unpleasant symptoms-evcn if taken in large doses. they create only thirst, which be- ing allayed with water, an agreeable warmth and moisture at the surface is soon experienced. When taken as directed, they break up the cold and ar rest its effects. and the only operation perceived is mysterious and unfavorable disappearance oi all symptoms, as f.verishness, chills. lamencss. iarting pains, dull heavy pains, tlghtnefs of the chest, hoarseness cough, sore throat, croup, ca ts rrh, headache. &c
