when the use of the Balsam is begun and the irritation goes with it. This medicine for cough hasn’t a disagreeable thing about is, and it does efflzient service in breaking up coughs otlong standing. It is prepared from barks and roots and gums of trees, and isa true specific fort throat troubles. _

Han iling coughs is a science that every one should learn. Not knowing how to treat them has cost many fortunes and many lives. In Adamson’s Balsam there are the elements which not only _heal inflamation, but which protect the lnfla-_ med parts from further irritation. The result of this is that the tendency to cough does not manifest itself, and you are surprised at it. Afterwards you would not he without Adamson’s Balsam at hand. This remedy can be tested.
