NO BETTER WAY TO
BREAK A BAD COLD

The most effective and harmless
way to cure the grippe or break a Sc
we're cold, either In the head, chest,
back, stomach or limbs, is dose OF
Pape's Cold Compound every two
hours until three consecutive doses
are taken.
You will distinctly feel the cold
breaking and all grippe symptoms go
ing after the very first dose. 1t
promptly relieves the most miserable
headache, dullness. head and nose
stuffed up. feverishness. sneezing. sore
throat, running of the nose, soreness.
stiffness and rheumatic aching.
Take this harmless Compound as d.
rected, with the knowledge that there
Is no other medicine made anywhere
else in thy world which will cure your
cold or end grippe misery as promptly
and without any other assistance or
bad after effects as a 25-cent package
of Pape's Cold Compound, which any
druggist in the world can supply.
After three years research we have
conclusfvely demonstrated that aui-
nine is not effective in the treatment
of colds or grippe.
