Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the honest
truth. l at times keep from coughing
myself to pieces by taking teasp poon-
full of this remedy, and when the cough
ing spell would come on at night l
would take a dose and it seemed that
in the briefest interval the cough
would pass off and would go to sleep
perfectly free from cough and its ac-
companying pains. To say that the
remedy acted rs most agreeable sur.
prise is putting it very mildly. had
no idea that it would or could knock
out the grip, simply because | had
never tried it for such purpose, but
it did, and it seemed with the second
attack of coughing the remedy caused
it TO not only be of less duration, but
the pains were far less severe, and |
had not used the contents Of one bot
tie before Mr.. Grip had bid me adieu."
