And. I devise to children the banks of the New Way to Stop ftimpU Method Bring* Quick lt*ll*f For almost instant relief from hack ing, irritating, sleep-robbing night coughing there is a very simple treat ment which, often with a single dose, stops all irritation and permits sound sleep the whole night through. This treatment is based on the pre scription known as Dr. King’s New Discovery for Coughs. You simply take one teaspoonful at bed-time and hold it in the throat for 15 or 20 seconds before swallowing it The prescription has a double action. It not only soothes and heals soreness and irritation,but it quickly removes the phlegm and con gestion which are the real cause of night coughing. People who have not slept well for nights are often surprised how quickly tins simple method checks coughing and banishes the entire cough condition completely. Dr. King’s New Discovery is for coughs,chest colds,sore throat,hoarse ness, bronchitis, spasmodic croup, etc. Fine for children as well as grown ups—no harmful drugs. Economical, too, as the dose is only one teaspoon ful. At all good druggists.
