MAY LOWER DRIXK PRICES IN CITY

Sme action may be taken by Stanley Wyckoff, Indiana fair price commissioner, and local bottlers acainst certain .oft drink emporiums of South Ib nd as the result of price boosting. A price of 10 cents for bottled soft drinks such as phosphates and coca cola, sold at local soda fountains, is unjustifiable according to the state officer. He asserts that the retailers pay only $1 a case of H4 bottles, on which the war tax has been paid, and receive $12.40 from the nfw prices. During the war, with the cost at SO cents a case a charge of five cents to the consumer was made. The state oflieer's announcement says he does not believe an increase

A HIDDEN DANGER

It is as dangerous to overload the

Etomach thereby increasing tho j

ivprk of the lirer and kidneys as it is to sit on a powder keg! If tho stomach docs not function properly, th-a food digested is not assimilated and taken up by tho blood. A stomach alterative and blood maker that has been favorably knofvn for tho past 50 years is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. An imitation of nature's method of restoring wasto of tissue and impoverishment of the blood and nervous force is used when you take an alterative extract of

herbs and roots, without the use of alrtohoL likft Dr. Piatta's

S-ZL medicine coaxes tho digestivo functions and

helps in the assimilation of food, or rather takes from tho food just the nutriment the blood requires. This "Medical Discovery" gives no false stimulation, because it contains no alcohol or other narcotic. It helps digestion and tho as

similation of such elements in tho food as aro required for tho blood. Elm Hall, Mich. "I suffered from chronic gastritis and kidney trouble ever since tho Civil War, brought on by exposure and poor fare. I suffered so much from bloating and cramps and poor kidnev action, but through the use of Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and the little Pellets taken according to directions, together with Dr. Pierce's Amine for the kidneys, I can say hat my health has become verv rood for a man in his 72d year,

. iiereas ior years l was in very poor neaiin at, times, x consider I Doctor Pierce s remedies the best that are put up' WM. PAUKS.

A cold is simply an inflammation of some part of the air passages throat, larynx or bronchial tubce just like a sore is an inCammAtion cf the skin. A lon; continued cold means constant intlamrnation and this constant irülamraation frequently weakens the air passages so that they become an easy point of attack for invading erms of more SvTious diseases. A "ctld that hangs on, ' therefore, is simply nature's "reil flag" indicating th.at there is "trouble below," and this warning chould never bo neglected. Nightly r.pplicatiocs cf Vick's YapoRub uill aid nature to clear up that inflammation. Because Vicks acts locally by stimulation thru the skin to draw out the inflammation, attract the blood away from the congested spots

and relieve the cough. In addition, the medicinal ingredients of Vicks are vaporized by tha body heat. There vapors are breathed in all night long, thus bringing the medication to bear directly upon the inflamed areas. Vicks should be rubbed in over the throat and chest until the skin is red then spread on thickly and covered with hot flannel cloths. Leave the clothing loose arcund the neck and the bed clothes arranged in the form cf a funnel so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. If the cough is annoying, swallow a small bit of Vicks the size of a pea. Samples to new users will be sent free on request to The Vick Chemical Company, 235 Bread Street, Greensboro, N. C.
