SURE TO BREAK
A SEVERE COLD

The most severe cold will be
broken, and all grippe misery
ended after taking a dose of
Pape's Cold Compound every two
hours until three consecutive doses
are taken.
You will distinctly feel all the
disagreeable symptoms leaving
after the very first dose.
The most miserable headache,
dizziness, head and nose stuffed up,
feverishness, sneezing, running of
the nose, sore throat, mucous ca
tarrhal discharges, soreness. stiff
ness, rheumatism pains and other
distress vanishes.
Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit OF three years research at a
cost of more than fifty thousand
dollars, and contains no quinine.
which we have conciusively DEM
onstrated is not effective in the
treatment of colds or grippe.
Take this harmless Compound
as directed, with the knowledge
that there is no other medicine
made anywhere else in the world
which will cure your cold or end
grippe misery as promptly and
without any other assistance or
bad after-effects as a 25-cent
package of Pape's Cold Compound,
which any druggist in the world
can supply.

Ice cream dealers are finding that
II is not so very easy after all TO sup
ply the public with ice cream and
iced drinks when the thermometer
stands at one hundred in the shade and
the public is eager TO buy. Last week
there was a great demand for drinks
and for ice cream in every form. To-
wards the end Of the week, milk and
cream from which to make the 'ce
cream became scarce and manufactur-
ers had 70 telegraph all around to get
in sufficient to supply their customers
Some of them could not get all the
sweet cream that they had use for
and had to cut down their deliveries
reducing most of them one-half This
If course, did not suit the retail deal
ers because they wanted more than the
usual amount to supply the public
while II was in the buying humor, and
the failure of their supply was very
disappointing.
