No Morphine or
 Alcohol in |iinoniine e

Linonine, the most effective cure for throat and lung troubles known to science, does not contain particle of any so-called habit forming drug nor is there drop of alcohol in it-just four good old fashioned honest reme- dies blended into one by modern meth ods. The formula is plainly printed on every bottle and there is nothing sc cret or suspicious about Linonine.
 Linonine warns and enTiches the blood and this newly strengthened blood forces inflammation from the mem branes and tissues and the cold having nothing to feed on is thrown out of the system.
