MIAMI MAY BE tEMOCRATS’ ’2B LPARLEYGHOICE ;*st Time Since 1860 Party Has Considered South for Convention. Bu United Press NEW YORK, Dec. 9.—The Democratic party, for the first time since 1660, is seriously considering holding its next national convention in the south. Clem L. Shaver, chairman of the national committee, after several conferences here, revealed that Miami, Fla., is looked upon with great favor by Democratic leaders as the scene of the 1928 convention, even going so far as to say that the decision probably would rest with the southern resort itself. The contest for the convention virtually has narrowed down to Miami and two other cities, Detroit and Cleveland, Shaver said. If Miami decides to back .up its tentative offer, made by representatives several months ago, of $200,000, Chairman Shaver believed it would be the choice of the committee. The committee has a deficit of approximately that amount left over from the 1924 campaign, and is anxious to erase it from the ledger. Railroad and steamship lines, meanwhile, have promised to cut their passenger rates in half should Miami be chosen. If no bona fide financial offer came from the southern city, Cleveland was believed to be the most favored site because of its central location, Shaver said. Would Break Marriage RUSHVILLE, Ind., Dec. 9.—Edith Louise Jackson, Negro, who alleges she was only 15 years old when she became the wife of Irvin Jackson on Aug. 4, 1923, seeks annulment of the marriage in a suit filed in Rush Circuit Court here by her father, George Ealy. ..^

J9Hkt ' N Hb W j|h*

Head colds and chest colds can now be ended quickly——often overnight—by the unique double action of a home remedy now recommended by doctors at the health clinic. And druggists here say that vast numbers of Indianapolis people, like Mrs. Edna Case, have found that it quickly drives out a stubborn cold, even in severe cases where every known remedy used had failed.

“Is Quick Method for Home Use”

Doctors at the clinic were called for advice when Mrs. Case’s cold grew worse, causing fear of pneumonia. They immediately advised Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral—a concentrated mixture of ingredients which hospitals have found to be the quickest, safest and most dependable to end a cold. Almost instantly she felt the comforting, healing warmth—from her nose passages deep down into her chest. In a few hours she was greatly relieved and in another day or so was entirely rid of her cold. See other cases—all certified by a member of the hospital clinic.
