Sore Throat? Don't Gargle This Doctor's Prescription Gives, Quicker, Better Relief. Don't suffer the pain and discomfort of sore throat. Use a doctor's prescription called Thoxine guaranteed to relieve with the very first swallow. Gargles and salves are too slow and if they do relieve, it is usually only temporary. Thoxine has a double action?it relieves the soreness and goes direct to the internal cause. It contains no harmfull drugs and is safe and pleas-, ant for the whole family. There is nothing better to s op caughing due to irritated throats. Just ask for Thoxine, put up ready for use in 35c., 60c.; and $1.00 bottles. Money back if not relieved. Sold by Zemp's and all other good drug stores. Took Soda 20 Years for Gas?Stops Now "For 20 years I took soda for indigestion and stomach gas.
