For doctors have shown the way to quickly end a head cold, cough sr chest cold. And at the first sign of a cold, stars are now given a few pleasant doses of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral.

In making talking pictures, Robert Armstrong no longer dreads to face the sensitive microphone. For, like scores of other Hollywood stars, he has found how easily one can get rid of a cold by the quick, pleasant method doctors now advise for home use. Mr. Armstrong, for example, had a severe cough caused by neglecting a chest cold. Examination showed that his breathing passages were S congested, his throat was inflamed by constant coughing and his voice : was hoarse. Then he was given double strength doses of Ayers Cherry Pectoral every 15 minutes until congestion startc-’ c'r-ring vp, then a spoonful •very two hours. In just an hour or so the medlI cation began to relieve congestion. ! Breathing became easier; the spasmodic attacks of cou'dvna ' I and by dinner time he was feeling like a different psnxn. friends arrived for bridge that eve--1 ning his hoarseness had almost entirely disappeared. The next day he was delighted to find that Cherry Pectoral had cleared up the cold so that his voice was in condition to go ahead with the picture.

ROLAND DREW ENDS COLD CAUGHT WHILE | MAKING “EVANGELINE”

Colds always make one feel miserable and may bring risk o f pneumonia. That’s why Hollywood has been careful to choose the quick, pleasant method doctors advise for colds instead of risking needless danger. Roland Drew,

I R.inad Drew, for example, felt ■tnr m Ewb- a cold eoming on “ Ra ’ while making ooa. ete. ••Evan-line.” Instead of ending the cold promptly. he kept on working in the hope It would clear up without treatment. Instead, congestion started spreading so fast that he became ! alarmed. j Acting on the advice of physij dans, then. Mr. Drew began tak- | ing a pleasant spoonful of Cherry 1 Pectoral every 15 minutes. Relief ! began almost immediately and by i late afternoon congestion was clear- ■ tag up rapidly, A complete examiJ nation next day showed that Ayer’s | Cherry pectoral had cleared up all l ass UOm tttfca'euiqg sold.,

of different widely used methods to treat colds. Test cases have proved that It gives the quickest, surest relief. Alice White Relieves Bad Cold In Few Flours "During a recent dance,” say* Alice White, star of "The Girl From Woolworth’s,” "I became overheated on the dance floor and walked out on the veranda to cool off. Asa result I caught a severe cold. The next day my head and chest were so congested with cold that the director advised me to stay at home. He realized that my hoarse voice would simply spod the picture. “By evening the cold was worse and I was advised to take Ayer’e Pectoral every 15 minutes until congestion began to clear up, then once every two or three hours. By night my fever was gone. I was able to sleep without coughing. The next day my voice cleared up so that I could work—and in just a day or so I was astonished to find that all trace of the cold had disappeared. No wonder Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral is a necessity to players, especially now that talkies demand that one’s voice be kept free from the effects of a cough or cold."

For in Hollywood, as In hundreds of Indianapolis homes, this hospital certified remedy has become the standard treatment for colds. “The other day,” says Lila Lee, “I found that a miserable cold was lowering my vitality. I simply could net put energy Into anythin* I did. And, to make matters worse, I dreaded to stand before the microphone with the full knowledge that the slightest hoarseness, cough or sneeze would spoil the picture. “That evening I started In earnest to get rid of the cold. Every 15 minutes, for nearly three hours, my maid faithfully brought me a half spoonful of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. The taste was really tempting and I enjoyed a refreshlnf night’s sleep without being bothered by coughing. Soon I was really surprised to see for myself how quickly my cold disappeared.” Ayer’s Pectoral was hospital *rtHle4 as the best of different widely used methods tested for head colds, concha and chest colds because It th# quickest, surest rel'rf—with absolute safety.
