BAD colds make you sneeze and

cough continuously. They set your eyes watering and make your head feel heavy and stuffed-up. Avoid all this unpleasantness by sucking Pape breatheable tablets. Peps give off rich, antiseptic vapours which mingle with the breath and get right into the lungs. They search out and over- come cold and flu' germe, soathe the throat and breathing passages and soon make you well again. Get a bottle of Peps and rake them for coughs, sore throat, bronchitis,

chills, etc.
