AWAY WITH CATARRR
A FILTHY DISEASE
A Common Sense Treatment
Quickly Relieves All

If you have any symptoms of catarrh,
such as stuffed up feeling in the head,
profuse discharge from the nose, phlegm

ting, dull pain in the head, or ringing in
the ears, Just anoint the nostrils or rub
the throat or chest with a little Ely's
Cream Balm, and see how quickly you
will get relief.
In Just few minutes you will feel
your head clearing, and after using the
Balm for day or so the nasty discharge
will be checked, the pain, soreness and
fever will be gone, and you will no long
er be offensive to yourself and friends
by your constant hawking, splitting and
blowing.
Shake off the grip of catarrh before

for that class as well as for the city
driver.
1t seems extraordinary that more
than 100000 cars were made and put
into use before the demand for self
starters became so insistent that the
makers must now supply them on new
cars, while the owners of old cars can
hardly afford to be without them.
Thousands of cars now in use will be
equipped with self-starters during the
coming season, while of course no one
will think of buying a new car without
that necessary equipment. 1t is safe
to say that three years from now it
will be rare indeed to see a car start
ed by the old cranking method.
We have had air starters. spring
starters and mechanical starters. but
the trend is now in the direction Of
electric self-starters, with the added
convenience of electric lighting. Such
starter is clean, economical, CON
venient and operates by the mere
touching of a single button. It per-

which adds to the simple operation of
the car.
Insurance experts tell us that the
electric self-starter is going TO make
for fewer accidents with motor cars
because il can be operated over the
danger point if the gasoline supply
fails or il the motor stalls on a rail
road track or at any dangerous point.
Moreover. il eliminates the possibility

are obvious.
The starter makes for economy be-
cause the battery upkeep is reduced
as a constant supply of electricity for
all purposes is furnished at all times,
while economy in gasoline and wear
on the engine are advantages of an
electric starter which obviate the ne.

Moved to even greater heights.
 That is not poetry. even if it de serves the name. But it does tell about the change in quarters of the Phoenix branch of the United Stato: Weather Bureau.
 Under the eye of Section Director Briggs. the assistants have been two days moving the furniture. books and tools from the top floor of the Holmes building to the second floor of the federal building. where three great commodious rooms have been assigned. Monday morning early the workers will get busy on the appa ratus. and all the delicate instru- ments and recording devices will be transferred to the new quarters.
 There is likely to be a slight though unimportant change in the climate of Phoenix. This is not laying in a stock of heavy clothing or q set of linens. but will be mo- ticcable only in the second place cast of the decimal point. This is due to the fact that the new observatory on the federal building is higher than the old and the records will change correspondingIy with the change in altitude As the difference is not enough to cause the observer to allow for the variation with increased height above the street, no one need be afraid of cooler or hotter weather. It will appear only on the charts.
