Many a serious illness begins with “Just a Little Sore Throat” HE moment your throat feels the least bit raw, pay attention to it at once. Sore throat is always serious—jus¢ as sore throat—even when it does not run on into actual disease, as it so often does. Start giving it rigorous anti- septic treatment—and make your treatment continuous— not just a spray or gargle night and morning. Formamint provides the ideal throat antiseptic because it is one of proven germicidal power that can be carried with youand used all day long — no matter where you may be. That’s why it has been endorsed by more than 10,000 doctors. — To treat sore throat — take one of the pleasant-tasting tab- letseveryhourorso. Toprevent infaction, take one about every two hours whenever you are ex- posed to disease, dust or cold. All druggists. v v .
