from common colds
That Hang On

Chronic bronchitis may develop if
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron-
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with anymedi-
cine less potent than Creomulsion

laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, infamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote byspecial process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
It contains no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per-
Knitting rest and sleep, or you are to

1T would be absurd to pretend
that this Is universal. There are
large numbers who conscientiously
reject all relief in God. The state
itself is definitely nonreligious. But
when every allowance has been
made for this, there are undoubted-
