The "rur" fo 'd law" Is designed
by the Government to protect the
public from injurious ingredients in
both foods and drugs. 1t is beneficial
both to the public and to the con-
scrientious manufacturer. Ely's Cream
Balm, a successful remedy for colds in
the head, nasal catarrh, hay fever,
ETC., containing no injurious drugs,
meets fully the requirements of the
law, and that fact is prominently
stated on every package. 1t contains
none of the injurious drugs which are
required by the law to be mentioned
on the label. Hence you can, use IT
safely.
