The throat is the gateway to the body.
The air we breathe, the food we eat, the
liquids we drink, all pass through it. 1t is
very easily affected by cold, strain, ex-
posure, etc., and Sore Throat is therefore
one of our most common ailments.
Strangely enough, it is also one of the
most neglected.
Sore Throat is very serious matter,
for the whole system is In Danger in
consequence Of it.
Every Sore Throat patient is candidate
for Tongilitis, Quinsy, Diphtheria and
other serious or fatal diseases, all of which
can be prevented by the timely cure of the
Sore Throat by the use of TONSILINE.
If taken in time dose or two will do it..
TONSILINE is made to cure throat dis
eases and nothing else. 1t is the one
remedy for this purpose sold largely in the
United States. Every user endorses it;
every physician, knowing its virtues,
commends it.
The one most important thing to ~
