Can be relished fifty per
cent better if it is read
while you have one of our
cold drinks in your hand. These hot, stuffy days while
rulers arc clashing against one another, while millions of men are
fighting for the love of their country and their ruler, demand
that a refreshing drink he served while you ponder over the grav-
ity of the Eurpean situation. Then too. nothing goes better with
serious matters, as this war is, than a nice fat cigar. Everybody
is invited to our store to read our war bulletins and discuss the re-
ports as they come in during the day. .* .’ .*

I Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines.
j Jf you want to contribute direct
j ly to the occurences of capillary
i bronchitis and pneumonia use
| cough medicines that contain cod-
eine, morphine, heroin and other
sedatives when you have a cough
or cold. , An expectorant like
Chamberlain’s Cough Kemedy is
what is needed. That cleans out
the culture beds or breeding places
for the germs of pneumonia and
other germ diseases. That is why
pneumonia liever results from a
cold when Chamberlain’s Cough
iJcmedy is used. Jt lias a world
wide reputation for its cures. It
contains no morphine or other
sedatives. For sale ’ey ail dealers.

American railways run their passenger equipment from 60 to 10O miles
with periodical stops for lubrication. They expend annually large sums for
expert mechanics to do nothing but make inspection and recomendation.
Can the inexperience afford to undertake what the high salaried ones are
doing? Drive in and receive a thorough inspection at a nominal cost and
derive the full pleasure of motoring.
