HE Pep's treatment solves the problem-hitherto only met by a costly visit to the hill country or to some Alpine pine-forest resort-of applying nature's most powerful healing agent direct to the actual organs affected in cases of coughs. colds, bronchitis, asthma, throat troubles, etc.
Peps are the true breatheable, remedy. In handy compact form; Peps bring the potent healing and lung-strengthening virtues of pine-forest air into every home. As a Pepa tablet dissolves in the mouth, it instantly fills the throat, bronchial tubes and lungs. with powerful heading and germicidat funes.
This air-like medicine is at once soothing and comforting and it is breathed direct to the affected and weakened parts.
Dangerous disease germs that have attacked the lining membrane of the throat and At the breathing passages are quickly exterminated. same time, sore, inflamed tissues are healed, strength- ened and protected, breathing is made easy, chest tightness and wheeziness are ended.
WHY SWALLOW DANGEROUS DRUGS? The Peps direct method of treatment is thus different and infinitely more effective than the old practice of swallowing dangerous drug laden mixtures and syrups into the stomach. Peps are the handiest, salest and most successful remedy ever discovered for treating ailments of the breathing organs. and being absolutely free from harmful narcotics and sedatives. Peps are just as suitable for children as for adults and old-folk. Get a bottle of Peps to-day !.
