Asthma Sufferers Should Know This.

Foley's Honey and Tar has cured
many cases of asthma that were con-
sidered hopeless. Mrs. Adolph
Buesing, 70l West Third ST., Daven-
port, Iowa. writes: 6 A severe cold
contracted twelve years ago was
neglected until it finally grew into
asthma. The best medical skill
available could not give me more than
temporary relief. Foley's Honey and
Tar was recommended and one fifty
cent bottle entirely cured me Of asthma
which had been growing on me for
twelve years. If had taken it at the
start would have been saved years
of suffering" Brunt & Parman.
