DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee at any
pharmacy. Take tablespoonful Of the
tea, put a cup of boiling water upon
it, pour through sieve and drink a
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. 1t is the most
effective way to break cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores of the skim
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus driving cold from the
system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
cold or the grip. 1t is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.
