HONEST MEDICINES VS. FAKES President Taft’s recent message suggesting an amendment to the Pure Food and Drug law in its relation to Prepared Medicines, does not refer to such standard medicines as Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound and Foley Kidney Pills both of which are true medicines carefully compounded of ingredients whose medicinal qualities are recognized by the medical profession itself as the best known remedial agents for the diseases they are intended to counteract. For over three decades Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound has been a standard remedy for coughs, colds and affections of the throat, chest and lungs tot children and grown persons, and it retaids to day its pre-eminence above all other preparations of its kind. Foley Kidney Pills are equally effective and meritorious.—A. F. Long.
