THE GRAVITY OF. SORI THROAT.

LTHOUGH sore throat seeina so simple in itsälf, it may lead to such serious consequences that it should · never be. neglected, but should always be treated promptly.

When this is done, there is every chance that any infectious disease-auch as scarlet foror, diphtheria, measles, mumps, sto,, all of which begin with sore throat, will be affectually provented. If, however, the sore throat is neglected, the diannan will have time to establish itself in the system, and be much more diffcult to cure.

Careful note most be made of the fact i that, while Wulfing's Formamint is a cure of sore throat, it is only offered as preventive of diphtheria.

A Medical Officer of Health writes, in The Practitioner: "I have never had sore

throat myself since I began to use Wulting's Formamint, although I suffered periodically before."

These two statements suffice to show what the medical profession thinks of Formamint. The fact that

Formamint is oxtantly used by such men as the Rt. Hoa, Arthur J. Balfour, M.P., the Rt. Hon. Viscount Massereene and Ferrard, the Rt.
