YOUR BRONCHIAL TUBES

When cold settles in the bronchial

cough, immediate treatment is very
important. The breath seems shorter
because of mucous distractions; usu-
ally feveris present, your head jarswith
every cough and your chest may ache.
This is no time for experimenting or
delay-you must get SCOTS Emulsion
at once to drive out the cold which
started the trouble, and it will check
the cough by aiding the healing pro-
cess of the enfeebled membranes.
If you have any symptoms of bron-
chitis, or even a stubborn cold, always
remember that SCOTS Emulsion has
been relieving this trouble for forty
years. tits free from alcohol or drugs.
