METHOD DOCTORS ADVISE ENDS COLDS OVERNIGHT

Endorsed as Ideal Way to Stop Head Cold, Cough, Chest Cold —Pleasant for Home Use. No longer is it necessary to guess in choosing the quickest way to get rid of a stuffy head cold, bad cough or deep seated chest cold. For doctors at the clinic have endorsed a hospital tested method for home use which is giving hundreds of Indianapolis people the same quick relief that came to C. J. Wrenn and so many others who have tried it. Mr. Wrenn developed a bad head cold which nothing seemed to relieve. He couldn't sleep except to doze off a few minutes and w'ake up with the feeling that he was being choked. Then he called doctors at the clinic w'ho advised Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral—a concentrated mixture of w'ild cherry, terpin-hydrate and other ingredients which have relieved even the most extreme hospital cases. With the first swallow he felt its comforting, healing warmth—from his nose passages deep down into his chest. Relief began instantly and the cold was clearing up noticeably in two or three hours. He continued the pleasant doses, and in another day or so, doctors report, there was no trace left of the cough or cold.

Hoover is the choice of a majority of the Ohio editors for President, according to an interesting newspaper poll made public hei-e today. Furthermore, so far as the editors have been able to determine, Hoover is the choice of the communities in which they reside. The poll also gives Governor Alfred Smith a fair sized lead over former Senator Atlee Pomerene, who has been designated as Ohio’s Democratic favorite son.” ! The survey, made under the direction of C. W. Rife, political writer, is interesting in the fact that the eight largest cities in the State were excluded. The average sentiment of the rural districts, small towns and cities is represented. Question Many Editors A total of 467 editors were asked to express their opinion on the candidates for President and Governor and also to expi-ess the sentiment of their communities as they interpreted it. Replies were received from 214 or approximately 46 per cent of the total. In editorial preference, Hoover has 2’ j to 1 over Willis and Smith 14-5 to 1 over Pomerene. So far as they were able to interpret the ‘sentiment of their communities Hoover leads in that 11-5 to 1 over Willis and Smith 14-4 to 1 over Pomerene. The most important changes from editorial to community px-eference relate to Hoover and Smith. Hoover is preferred by 56 per cent of the editors and 48 per cent of the 214 communities. Smith is pieferred by 32 per cent of the editors and 45 per cent of the communities. In the poll the editors split their votes among nine Republican presidential preferences and fifteen Democratic. The vote of the editors was: Hoover, 104*i; Willis, 47 1 -; Dawes, 10 Vi; Coolidge. 8, with 13 scattered among five others. Dona hey Is Strong According to these same editors their commxxnities stand: Hoover. 79: Willis. 62 1 -;; Coolidge, 11; Dawes, 6; Hughes, 3 1 -; Lowden, 2. Although Governor Donahey has refused to ented the race he received a vote from the editors and their communities which puts him close to Pemerene. The sentixnent for the Democrats Is expressed in editorial preference as follows: Smith, 54; Pomerene, 41!i; Donahey, 32; Reed, 14, and 22 Vi scattered among seven others. In community preference the poll stood: Smith, 68; Pomerene, 37; Donahey, 25; Reed. 10li, with B’i scattered among five.

WOULD BOOST AUTOUCENSES G. E. Hershman Tells Plan to Get More Paving Funds. A 30 per cent increase in automobile license fees and abolishment of property tax on automobiles was advocated by George E. Hershman, member of the State highway commission, at the Good Roads dinner of the Brazil Chamber of Commerce, Wednesday night. This additional sum, derived from the fee increase, which in reality would cost the automobile owner no more, would enable the commission to pave the remainder of the mileage in the Indiana system in less than five years. Rapidity in motor car travel today. in comparison with that in 1916 was cited by Hershman, who said that it took a day and a half formerly to make the i-ound-trip between his home at Crown Point and Indianapolis, whereas the oneway distance can today be made in four hours. With an investment of : it eighty-one million dollars in the last ten years the State has paved slightly more than one-third of the highway system on the pay-as-you-go plan and does not owe a dollar indebtedness for these improvements. Only one other road in the nation —the Boston post road—carried moi-e traffic daily than the “bottleneck” on Dune highway over with 26,000 cai*s pass daily, Hershman said. Besides Hershman, Commissioners A. J. Wedeking of Dale, and Robert B. Boren, of Fountain City, attended the meeting. They assured the Brazil Chamber of Commerce that the section of Road 59, between Brazil and Rockville will be taken into the State system in i about two weeks.
