Don't wait for a second sneeze! When that snuffy, stuffy feeling in the nose tells you a cold is com ing, put MENTHOLATUM in the nostrila. Its cooling freshness quickly clears the nasal passages.

Rubbing the throat and chest with MENTHO LATUM often averts the danger of other com plications. Insist on MENTHOLATUM and always carry it with you. It comes in jars, tins and convenient, tidy tubes.
