Rational Pneumonia and
La Grippe Treatment.
The most successful physicious arc now
treating pneumonia and la grippe by the
application of counter-irritants. They
are learning to resist the temptation to
doctor the cough', which, after all, is
only nature's effort to relieve herself,
and are endeavoring to reach the seat
of the congestion without the use of
internal remedies.
Some are using preparations about
as pleasant to the patient r?.s an application
of mud or putty, but the wisest use
a pleasant liquid counter-irritant
The ideal remedy is Noah's Liniment
Its carcf.illy compounded ingredients
possess wonderful powers of penetration
and immediately reduce the inflammation
and congestion
Noah's Lininiei't is absolutely harmless,
and can be used freely without consultation
with a physician. Apply the
liniment freely over the point of pain or
congestion. Saturate a hot flannel and
keep it applied to that portion of the
body. The effect will be almost immediate,
and in many cases the threatened
pneumonia will be dispelled before a
physician can be secured.
Ilest for rheumatism, sciatia, lame
back, stiff joints and muscles, sore throat,
colds, strains, sprains, cuts, bruises,
colic, cramps, etc. l-'or internal and external
aches and pains Noah's Liniment
has no equal. For sale 'and guaranteed
