ever realised! The germs of colds and influenza of tonsillitis, diphtheria, pneumonia, and lung trouble all make for your throat--- the part most exposed to attack.
Don't neglect any suspicion of germ mis- chief in your throat! Take Peps infection- killing tablets at the least sign of hoarseness, pain, inflammation, or soreness.
When dissolved in the mouth, Peps give off certain soothing and agreeable-antiseptic fumes which give all recesses, membranes, and tissues of the throat a softening yet in- vigorating germ-killing bath. Thus, Peps quickly end pain or irritation, heal apreness and inflam- mation in the delicate air-tubes, and benefit the whole bronchial system.
