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.
