The above refers to - Gents' Groods UVJ lh IF THEY ARE WEAK You are in constant danger of Pneu monia or Consumption which can be prevented by FOLEY'S HONEY AND TAR if taken in time. IF THEY ARE INFLAMED You already have the first symp toms of lung trouble that may prove fatal and you should not delay taking FOLEY'S HONEY AND TAR. It cures all inflammatory con ditions of the respiratory organs. IF THEY ARE OBSTRUCTED It is dangerous to use harsh expectorants which strain and weaken the lungs. FOLEY'S HONEY AND TAR soothes and strengthens and enables the tubes to be naturally cleared. FOLETO HONEV flttD TAR gives the greatest comfort and relief in advanced stages of lung trouble and never fails to cure incipient Consumption. Contains no opiates. For Coughs, Colds, Croup, Whooping Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma, Pneumonia and Grippe. It stops the Cough and prevents Pneumonia. See That You Get FOLEY'S Honey and Tar A POLICEMAN'S TESTIMONY J. N.
