Its soothing influence upon the irrlta-

the fact that its ingredients are the most
efiicacious pulmonic simples known TO
medical botany, the basis OF the article
being the HONEY OF the H0REHoUND
PLANT, chemically. united with the me-
dicinal principle Of the ABIEs BALSAMEA,
or Balm of Gilead. There are besides,
five other botanic elements which give
additional efficacy to the first named two.
Those who have used it, say that HALE'S
HONEY Of HOREHoUND AND TAR Is not on
" wonderfully remedial III all cases
where the organs of respiration are Affect
ed, but also that its action Is unusually
rapid. 4 few doses frequently serve 10
relieve a very obstinate cough. III con-
taipS nothing that cen disorder the stom-

of but few Cough remedies; it has AZ ~
trcmely agreeable flavor, and Is so-t ~ %

Of which HALE'S HONEY OF HoREHoUND
