How to SORE Avoid THROAT
This is one of the worst months in the year as regards the risk of catching Sore Throat.
This painful malady is caused by germs-invisible atoms of plant life which we inhale from the air.
The warmth and moisture of the mouth cavity, with its | wrinkled surfaces containing residues of food, form ideal con- ditions for the growth of these germs, which inflame and irritate the lining of the throat:
A few Formamint Tablets, sucked like sweets, entirely rid the mouth cavity of germ growths, and thus cure Sore Throat in the shortest possible time.
Formamint
THE GERM"KILLING THROAT TABLET
Signor Caruso, the world-famous tenor, writes:I have found Weling's Formamint Tablets very beneficial to the throat,< and pleasant to the taste."
Although Formamint Tables are pleasantly flavoured and quite harmless, they contain a powerful antiseptic which goes thoroughly over the lining of the mouth and throat, and is absolutely fatal to germ life. Therefore, they not only care and prevent Sore Throit, Tonsillitis, and mouth troubles, bat offer safe protection against grave infections diseases like Diphtheria, Scarlet Fever, Measles.
