solid, streakless and mat-like.

Asthma Sufferers
MAKES BREATHING EASY.

In New England where Bronchitis.
Asthma and other diseases of the throat
and lungs are SO prevalent some wonder
fully speedy recoveries have recently
been effected by the use Of a treatment
known as Oxidaze, first introduced by Dr.
Eugene Howard, prominent Worcester
physician.
Oxidaze. which is a powerful. but high
ly concentrated combination Of curative
agents, comes compressed in a small
table. which the patient dissolves In the
mouth. One of these simple and pleas
ant tasting tablets put in the mouth just
before going to bed clears out all the
choked up air passages, soothes the irri-
tated bronchial tubes and enables the
asthmAtic sufferer to breathe easily and
naturally while lying down and to get a
comfortable nights sleep. O1idaze tab
lets are harmless. contain no dangerous
habit-forming drugs and are not at all
expensive. Bowditch & Webster and many
other druggists sell them and agree to
refund money to any purchaser who does
not obtain successful results from their
use. This certainly makes their test an
easy matter to all who suffer from Asth-
