Why Every User Becomes a Friend "iNever has any other cough medicine acted so quickly and satisfactorily as Foley's Honey and Tar Compound; and it gives complete satisfaction to friends who use it on my recommendation," says J. D. McComb, Toledo, O. It spreads a healing, soothing coating in an irritated inflamed throat, stops coughing, raises phlegm easily. No opiates to cause constipation, no chloroform, no "dope." You take no chances with cough or cold wfeen you buy Foley's Honey and Tar Compound. Ask for it. Thomas P. Bolger.
