The Correct Time

To stop cough Or cold is just as soon as it starts-then there will be no danger of pneumonia or consumption. Just few doses of Ballard's Hore- hound Syrup taken at the start will stop the cough. If it has been running on for sometime the treatment will be longer, but the cure is sure.
