pound as our best and only cough
remedy. , It never falls to cure any
of my seven chtldern of cough. My 2
months old baby has had a most se
vere cough which our doctor said he
could not cure and that baby would
surely die. Several of our relations
and neighbors had gathered to witness
the ending of the child's me. . Two
bottles of Foley's Honey & Tar com
pound cured the child and he is alive
and well today."
