Remedy in my family for a long time

for coughs, colds, Group, whooping

The most fattering testimonials have
been received, giving account of it's
good works; of the aggravating and
persistent coughs it has cured; of Sc

to it's soothing effects, and of the dan

danger in giving it, even to babies,
as it contains nothing injurious. Sold
