coughs too there is nothing better
than this famous prescription-it
goes direct to the internal cause. 1t
is put up under the name Thoxine
and is guaranteed to stop coughs and
relieve sore throats in Is minutes or
your money will be refunded. Sing
ers and speakers find Thoxine very
valuable.
The remarkable thing about
Thoxine is that while it relieves al
most instantly, it contains nothing
harmful, is pleasant tasting and safe
for the whole family. Ask for
Thoxine 35c, 6Oc, and $1.00 bottles.
