RAVACES OF COMMON
. COLDS ARE APPALLING

MIA kills more people than any other
disease, excepting tuberculosis and
heart disease. Many cases of pneu-
monia begin as common colds, which
have been neglected.
Persons Of hereditary tubercuIar
tendency should guard against colds
and should take proper measures to
stop their progress with the first
symptoms. 1t is evident, therefore,
that instead of being trivial affec-
ton the common cold" must be
classed as a serious menace to public
health.
Kurokol, the new scientific cold
remedy, which has been accomplish
ing such remarkable results, proba :
bly, provides the safest, surcst and
quickest, as we'll as the most practi-
cal. treatment for colds yet discov-
cred.
This new remedy, according to the
statements of the thousands who
have used it, is almost magical in it's
effect. The first dose usually stops
the tendency to sneeZing and cough
ing and relieves the feeling Of dis
comfort. and the second and third
doses usually suffice to stop the prog
ress of a cold altogether. Only one
bottle is generally sufficient to break
up the most obstinate cold, no mat
ter of how long standing.
The great superiority Of Kurokol
over the ordinary treatment hereto
fore prescribed is due to the fact that
it is a combination treatment and
acts as an antipyretic, expectorant,
laxative and antiseptic. thereby re-
moving the cause, while many other
remedies relieve the symptoms only
momentarily.
All druggists have been instructed
to refund money in every case where
it fails to give satisfactory results
after three doses have been taken
