Avoid Sedative Cough Remedies

If you want to contribute direct
" to the occurance of capillary
bronchitis and pneumonia use
cough remedies that contain CO.
dine, morphine, heroin and other
sedatives when you have cough
or cold. An expectorant like
Chamberlain Cough Remedy 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 never results from a
cold when Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is used. 1t has a wide
reputation for its cures. 1t con-
tains no morphine or other sedative.

Making Rain With Rockets

Il therefore arranged to have a
supply of rockets kept on the estate
and fired off every afternoon at the
rate of one rocket every five minutes,
but only when the condition of the
atmosphere was such that heavy rain
threatened on AL sides
Whether rain has fallen in re-
sponse to these explosives or not the
fact remains that ever since we first
tried the experiment we have been
fortunate enough 10 catch sufficient
moisture to enable the crops to sur
vive the drought"
Firing into the clouds with the OBJ
ject of causing rain was practiced for
several years in southern Germany,
Switzerland and France. but seems to
have been abandoned some time ago
The idea was to protect the vineyards
and other civilizations from damage
by hailstones. it being thought that
by the discharge Of large guns rain
would fall and that the danger from
hailstorms would be averted-Londop

his health" says the association, "un-

for this purpose, over and above what
his family may need.
