SURELY BREAKS UP A BAD COLD ft is a positive fact that a dose of Pape's Cold Compound taken every two hours until three consecutive doses are taken will cure Grippe or break up the most severe cold, either in the head, chest, back, stomach or limbs. You distinctly feel the cold breaking and all the disagreeable grippe

symptoms leaving after the very first dose. It promptly ends the most miserable headache, dullness, head and nose stuffed up, feverishness. sneezing, sore throat, running of the nose, ucous catarrhal discharges, soreness, stiffness and rheumatic twinge. Hspf's Cold Compound is the result of three years' research at a cost of more than fifty thousand dollars and contains no quinine, which we have conclusively demonstrated is not effective in the treatment of colds or grippe. Take this harmless Compound as directed, with the knowledge that there is no other' medicine made anywhere else in the world, which will cure your

; cold or end Grippe misery as promptly

and ithout any other assistance or bad after-effects as a 25-cent package of Pape's Cold Compound, which any druggist in the world can supply.
