TAKE CHILDREN OUT of DANGER
If you saw’ a child on a railroad
track you would endeavor to remove
the little one from danger. When a
child is “snuffling” or coughing, isn’t
it your duty to get him out of danger
of severe consequences? Foley’s Hon
ey and Tar gives relief from coughs,
colds, croup and whooping cough.
Contains no opiates. The Owl Phar
macy. advt.
Are Your Lungs Strong?^
Do colds go down to your throat? Are your bronchial
tubes easily affected? Above all, do colds settle on your
chest? Then your lungs may not be as strong as y ou
expected—consumption often follows.
