quentfy procured a bottle at once, and used lt
according to directions. After using one bottle
my cough and cold left me Immediately, as by
magic. have since recommended 1t to others in
like circumstances, and all cheerfully recommend
Adamson's Cough Balsam as being the estremedy
that has ever been produced for coughs and colds.
