Spring Colds Are Dangerous.
Sudden changes of tempera-
ture and underwear bring spring
colds wi h stuffed up head, sore
throat and general cold symp

eptic balsams clears the head,
soothes irritated membranes and
what might have been a linger-
ing cold is broken up. Don't
stop treatment when relief is first
felt as a half cured oold is dan-
gerouB. Take Dr. King's New
Discovery till your cold is gone.
