COLDS THAT

PNEUMONIA

Chronic coughs and persistent colds
lead to serious trouble. You can stop
them now with Creomulsion, an
emulsifed creosote that is pleasant to
take. Creomulsion is a new medical
discovery with twofOld action; it
soothes and heals the inflamed mem
branes and kills the germ.
OF all known drugs, creosote is
recognized by the medical fraternity
as the greatest healing agency for
the treatment Of chronic coughs and
colds and other forms of throat
troubles. Creomulsion contains, in ad-
dition to creosote, other healing ele-
ments which soothe and heal the in
famed membranes and stop the irri-
tation and Inflammation, while the
creosote goes on to the stomach, is
absorbed into the blood, attacks the
seat of the trouble and destroys the
germs that lead to serious compiled
tons.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac-
tory in the treatment Of chronic
coughs and colds, catarrhal bronchitis
and other forms of throat diseases,
and is excellent for building up the
system after colds or the flu. Money

matter of how long standing, is not re-
