DON’T NEGLECT THE LITTLE ONESI A snuffling, sneezing, coughing' :hlld certainly is a reflection upon the parents. To permit a child to suf fer from a cold is more than negligence; it is cruel. A cold that hangs m weakens the system and can easily turn into something serious. Mrs. I. S. Pifson, 376 E. 158th St., Cleve-' land. Ohio, writes: “I can’t speak 1 100 highly of Foley's Honey and Tar 1 When my little girl has a cold I give her Foley’s Honey and Tar and that stops her coughing in a little while.” Children like it.
