Madam IRA WM A Real Lung Tonic There are many prepar- ations that will relicir a cough -kw that will cure it.. The first class, containing such drugs as Opium and Mor- phine, simply deaden the irritation and stop the cough, but do little or no permanent good. "Father Morriscy's No. 10" does not contain a trace of these dangerous drugs, but is an absolutely safe and scientific preparation of Nature's own remedies -Herbs, Roots and Balsams. It entirely removes the irritation that caused the cough, by cleaning out the mucus, stopping the inflammation and healing the delicate membrane of throat and lungs. Moreover, it tones np and strengthens the whole system, particularly the lungs, and protects against future coughs and colds. Trial size 25c. per bottle. Regular size 5oc.
