WHAT IS A COUGH?

A spasdomic effort to expel the mu-
Gus from the bronchial tubes. A cold
causes a more abundant secretion OF
mucus, and when the lungs and bron-
chial tubes are inflamed, they are ca
tremely sensitive to the irritation. I'M
less care is taken, the cold may result
in pneumonia, which is swift and dead
ly. If the cold is a lingering one, the
more leisurely but equally fatal con-
sumption may set in. Do not neglect
cold or cough. Take Chamberlain

reason has made il so emphatic that

Possibilities of the New Fuel.
There are enthusiasts in the navy who
believe that when the problem Of oil fuel
is solved il Will 10 a large extent
reyolutiOnize the navy. although there is
ntiAt qAtetlOn IN the iuiuGS OF some as
TO whether OF not The engineers viii

use in the great battleships and cruisers.
It's practicability for use on the smaller
ships. however, and upon commercial
ships and fTeighters has been proven to
some degree. although much remains yet
to be done before the great ocean going
steamers will be propelled by a force
generated from oil.
