Reduces mouth bacteria 98%. When you want relief from sore throat, do not expect it from ordinary mouth washes. Weak ones accomplish nothing. Harsh ones may irri- tate the very delicate throat tissues, and thus allow germs easier entrance to the body. Physicians and nurses, and at least 10,000,000 people, have found that full strength Listerine promptly relieves ordinary sore throat. One trial will convince you also. When you use Listerine, you know you are safe—that this great anti- septic actually heals tissue; no irritation whatso- ever. You know also that it kills germs in the fastest time. That it reduces bacteria on the surface of the mouth 98%. Listerine's success in arresting infection and its acceptance by the medical profession and public are based on these properties. They are the subject of comment by The Lancet of London, “the physician's bible.” Use Listerine not only as a treatment for colds and sore throat, but as an aid in preventing them. Note below the remarkable results achieved by Listerine, in this direction. Only half as many colds Several hundred people were divided into three groups and kept under medical supervision for periods ranging from 4 weeks to 475 months, during the winter of 1930-31. One-third of them gargled with full strength One-third gargled with it third did not gargle with Those who gargled witl contracted only one-half colds as those who did ni Listerine twice a day. five times a day. One- it at all. h Listerine twice a day to one-third as many ot gargle at all. When Listerine users did develop colds, they were approximately one-fourth as severe and lasted only one-third as long. In @ number of tests, even greater resistance was registered. Those who gargled with Listerine five times a day showed still greater resistance but not in the direct ratio to the number of times used. These results, amazing as they are, do not mean that Listerine shoyld be used as a substi- tute for the family physician, who is always your best friend in time of ilin: the average person can ess. They do mean that reduce the risk of ill- health considerably by the systematic twice-a- day use of full strength Listerine. Begin now. See how your health improve Ask for Listerine at your druggist's—and see that you get it. Lambert St. Louis, Mo. Pharmacal Company,
