Is This Too Good
For Your Cough?
Creomulslon may be a better help
thnn you need. It combines seven
major helps in one the beat helps
known to science. It Is made for
quick relief, for safety.
Mild coughs often yield to lesser
helps. No one can tell. No one
knows which factor will do most for
any certain cough. So careful people,
more and more, are using Creomul
slon for any cough that starts.
The cost is a little more than a
single help. But your druggist guar
antees it, so it costs nothing If it
fails to bring you quick relief.
Coughs are danger signals. For
safety's sake, deal with them In the
best way known. Adv.
