THE NEW INHALANT REMEDY

FOR COUGHS, SORE THROAT, AND COLDS, Respiroids provide a highly effective, rapidly curative treatment for coughs, sore throat, colds ami branchial troubles generally.

As Respiroids laronges slowly dissolve in the mouth you breathe-in- the-eure, for they release delightfully aromatic medicinal essences and vapours which penetrate the nasal and bronchial passages, and go right down into the remotest parts of the lungs, in this way breaking up phlegm and soothing and healing all inflamed parts.

You can carry Respiraids in your pocket ready for use anywhere and at all times, which is another great advantage over the old-fashioned liquid remedies requiring « bulky bottlo and a spoon.
