• Sim pie Treatment
Thousands who are troubled with
rerslstent coughing at night. which
y robbing them of valuable sleep
weakens their Byntems and lays
them open to dangerous Infections,
can quickly act to prevent this dan
yrr through a very simple treat
ment. People who have hardly been
able to rest at all on account of
coughing- spells have found they can
•leep the whole night through un
disturbed often the ttrst time they;
try It
The treatment 1s baaed on a re
markable prescription known as Dr.
King's New Discovery for Coughs.
Tou simply take a teaspoonful at
ret+r4nift~««4 hoM-H-ta
jour throat for 16 or 20 seconds be
fore swallowing It, without follow
ing with water. The prescription
lias a double action. It not only
soothes and heals soreness and Irri
tation, but it qulrkly loosens and
, | removes the phlegm and congestion
which are the direct of tho
roughing. The result Is you UKually
sleep soundly the very first night,
and the entire cough condition goes
in a very short time.
The prescription Is highly recom
mended for coughs, chest colds,
hoarseness, and bronchitis, and la
wonderful for children's coughs and
spasmodic Cioup—no harmful drugs.
Economical, too. as the dose is only
one teaspoonful. At all good drug
