Good for Tonsilitis.
Office of W. M. LINE, M. D.
Germantown, Neb., Feb. 8, 1904
I have had most excellent results
with Gilson's Sore Throat Cure in dis
eases of the '.hroat and mucous lin
ings. I find its application in tonsi
litis and cases where a false mem
brane exists in tho throat, as in
diphtheria, to have an Immediate ef
fect, loosening and removing the mem
brane, and thereby at once relieving
this distressing sensation of smother
ing noted in these cases. My clinical
experience with Gilson's Sore Throat
Cure has proved to n. s its value and 1
can heartily recommend it to all as a
safe and reliable preparation for tbe
disease it Is recommended.
