laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe ancrheal raw, tender, inflamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote by special 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 a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
wav it quickly allays the cough, per
mitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)
