Its Cause and Cure.
If your throat is sore, swollen,

They ease the pain at once-cure the Sore Throat, quickly prevent further attacks-and safeguard you against infectious discuses due to .germe.
Germs are breathed out by the sick, and we inhale them from the Bir. They are seeds-living atoms of plant life so small that we can only Ece them through a microscope, and then they look like mere specks, us shown in the above illustration..
These germs grow and multiply at A great speed in the warm moist lining of "the mouth envity. They also throw off poisons which cause various throat troubles and infec- tious diseases."
The most thorough and certain way to kill these germs in the mouth and throat is to suck Formamint Tablets, which are both a cure for throat troubles and a preventive of infectious diseases like Diphtheria, Consumption of the Lungs, Scarlet Fever, Meusica and Tonsillitis,
Praised by Physicians
änd the Public.
Formamint is a gerine remedy. Over 7,000 physicians have publicly certified to its value. Hundreds of eminent people are also Formamint users, including the Rt. Hon. A, J. Balfour, M.P., Lord Justice Burkicy, and Queen Alexandra's confidential Secretary, the Hon. Charlotte Knollys.
The Archdeacon of Bristol writes: habitually use Formamint us a preventive of Sore Throut." Viscount Ferrard ⠀⠀ writes —" Sore Throat quickly disappears after using For mamint Tablets." SignorCuruso, the world-famous tenor, writes:-"1- have found Walling's Formamint Tablets very beneficial to the throat and pleasant to the taste."
Among medical men, Professor Seifert, M.D., the famous specialist, writes in The Medical Press and Circular attach great signifl. cance to the worth of Formamint Tablets. They are splendidly adapted as a preventive of infectious diseases, and I have prescribed them extens-" ively in Tonsillitis, etc."
Why continue to suffer from Sore' Throat? Try this effective remedy, which, by the way, is both palatable and harmless.
