Advertisement for Géraudel's Pastilles, 1895. 'DURING THE LATE FROST...If you cough take Géraudel's Pastilles. A FAIR SKATER'S ADVERTISEMENT...GERAUDEL'S PASTILLES Act by Inhalation and Absorption DIRECTLY upon the Respiratory Organs for COUGHS, COLDS, BRONCHITIS, HOARSENESS, CATARRH, ASTHMA, LARYNGITIS &c...THEIR EFFECT IS INSTANTANEOUS. GERAUDEL'S PASTILLES are most agreeable to the taste, and contain the purest essence of Norway Pine Tar, which has attained greater success in bronchial and catarrhal affections than any other substance or drug hitherto employed. They contain no narcotic or other injurious drug, and, unlike numerous other cough remedies, are not required by the Act of Parliament to bear the label "Poison."...Slowly dissolved in the mouth, they give off a soothing, refreshing, and healing vapour of Pine Tar, which is thus breathed into the bronchia and lungs upon the very seat of disease, affording immediate relief, and effecting a gradual and lasting cure...They should be used constantly by smokers, and by all whose vocal organs have any unusual strain to undergo. They are invaluable to those who are liable, owing to their occupation, to inhale irritating and noxious vapours or dust'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
