A WONDERFUL ANTISEPTIC
Germs and infection aggrivate ailments
•nd retard healing. Stop that infection at
once. Kill the germs and get rid of the
poisons. For this purpose a single appli-
cation of Sloan's Liniment not only kills
the pain but destroys the germs. This
neutralizes infection and gives nature as-
sistance by overcoming congestion and
givts a chance for the free and normal flow
of the blood. Sloan's Liniment is an en -
crgency doctor and should be kept con-
atently on hand. 25c., 5Cc. The $1.00

the throat and gives relief from that clog-
ged and stuffed feeling. The pines have
ever been the friend of man in driving
away colds. Moreover, the pine-honey
qualities are peculiarly effective in hgbting
children's colds. Remember t at a cold
broken at the start greatly removes the
possibility of complications. 25c.
