The Exp. of Thousands

The inconvenience-to say nothing OF the
danger-Of a bad cough or cold, is terrible. 1t
lncapacitates man for business, spols his
appetite, subjects him to pain and makes
him., in body and mind, thoroughly I'M
comfortable. Yet, in forty eight hours he
may get rid of all this, by taking Hale's
Honey Of Horeho,nd and Tar according to the
directions. Otherwise the complaint may
stick TO him all Winter, or, perchance xiii
him before the spring.
