an outward application for bronchial dill

'yrups, cough mixture, cod livor oil, DC,
simply because it penetratcs through to the
d rect cause, which is, as rulo, an aecumule-
ton of matter or growth tightly adhered to
the bronchial tubei.
st. Jacobs Oil, possessing as 1t does those
wonderful penetrating powers, enables il to
loosen these adhssions and to induce free ex.
pactoration. Cases have been known where
oxpectorations have bsen examined aftsr ST.
jacobs Oil has been applied, and the exact
formation was clearly shown where tho ad-
hesions had been removed or pulled of ths
bronchial tubes. All irritation of the del
icate mucous membrane of the bronchp is
quickly removed by the healing and soothing
properties of ST. Jacobs Oil. In cases of Group
and whooping cough in children st. Jacobs
Oil will be found superior to any other
remedy.
ST. Jacobs Oil is for sale throughout the
v orld. 1t is clean to use-not at all greasy or
oily, as its name might imply. For rheu-
matism, govt, s,iatica, neuralgia. cramp,
