It begins with a tightness across the chest, dif- ficulty in breathing, and a wheezing sound comes from the lungs. There is a raising of phlegm, especially the first thing in the morning. This is at first white, but later becomes of a greenish or yellowish color and is occasionally streaked with blood. On the first sign of bronchitis you should check it immediately by us- ing Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, thereby prevent it becoming chronic, and perhaps developing into some more serious lung trouble. Mrs. Brice Culham, Sheffeld, Ont, writes: --"In December, 1919, I was very sick with bronchitis, and had to stay in the house all winter. One day 1 saw Dr. Wood's, Norway Pine Syrup advertised, so I got a small sottie which heiped me very much; « then got a §0c. size, and it complete- ly relieved me. I can.ot praise "Dr. Wood's" enough for what it did. Two of my neighbors are-now using it for colds." .
