The “Pure Food Law”
Is designed by the Government to
protect the public from injurious in
gredients in both foods and drugs. It
is beneficial both to the public and to
the conscientious manufacturer. Ely’s
Cream Balm, a successful remedy for
cold 1 nthe head, nasal catarrh, hay
fever, meets fully the requirements of
the new law, and that fact Is promi
nently stated on every package. It
contains none of the injurious drugs
which are required by the law to bo
mentioned on the label. Hence you
can use It safely.
