EASY AND SURE WAY
TO CURE COLDS

A cold generally attacks the weak
est part, affecting the eyes and ears
in some and producing nasal catarrh
and throat troubles In others. A
cold is due to an 1nfE,mmatIon OF the
membrane lining the air passages and
may be promptly cured with little
Ely's Cream Balm, which Immediate
ly relieves the inflammation and all
the distressing symptoms, such as
sneezing. coughing, running at the
nose and eyes, hoaTseness. sore
throat, fever and headache. One
reason why this pure, antiseptic
Balm acts so quickly is because it is
applied directly to the tender, sore
surfaces.
Even in severe, chronic cases of
catarrh, Ely's Cream Balm never
fails to quickly and effectually check
the poisonous discharge which clogs
the head and throat causing the dis
gusting hawking, splitting and blow
ing of the nose. This remedy not
only drives out the disease, but heals
and strengthens the weakened mem
branes, thus ending catarrh.
Catarrh is a filthy, disgusting dis
ease. Don't put up with it another
day. Get a so cent bottle of Ely's
Cream Balm from Your druggist and
see how quickly You viii. be relieved.
II is perfectly harmless.

VALUE OF BLUFF

In a close encounter during the
American Civil War, two sol
diers, one from each army, came
face to face within short range,
Each put up his gun and fired,
as it subsequently appeared, his
last cartridge. Both missed. The
bullet of one man buried itself
in a tree, and the shot of the other
passed through the coat of his
enemy. Each man, knowing his
ammunition was gone, supposed
himself to be at a disadvantage.
