BRONCHIAL COUGHS

When the bronchial tubes are af-
fected with that weakening, tickling
cough, they need immediate and SEN
sible treatment. The breath seems
shorter because of mucous obstIuc-
tons; usually fever is present and
your head jars with every cough.
Your chest aches and the infam-
nation often spreads TO the lungs.
The food-tonic that has proven its
worth for forty years-is SCOTS
Emulsion. 1t drives out the cold,
which is the root of the trouble,
and checks the cough by aiding
the healing process of the enfeebled
membranes.
If you are troubled with bronchitis
or know an afflicted friend, always re-
member that SCOTS Emulsion builds
strength while relieving the trouble.

Agent of the Gar Seeks Ma

Gun Cotton.

NEW YORK, Dec. IS.-Ivan V. Ser
ginsky. representative of the Rus
sian government. is in the United States
to spend at least $40. 900, 900 on machinery
for the manufacture of guncotton and
farming implements.
Mr.. Serginsky, who had lived in this
country five years ago. said he repre-
scented in Petrograd the Carbonate
Machine Company and the Buffalo
Forge Company.
."The government of Russia" he said,
has authorized me to look around TINS
country for the best contracts l can
make for the purchase OF machinery
for the manufacture of guncotton and
farming implements. Germany had
monopoly on this output. and was Ia
millar with what the Russian manu-
facturers wanted. The war, however,
has cancelled all these contracts, as the
German plants were not able TO fuliill
them. II Will be some time before Ger
many will be in a position to get this
business. and a splendid opportunity Is
now awaiting this country to get what
Germany has lost
THE government has two factories
near Petrograd. which have been max
ing guncotton, but they are antiquated-
We were planning to erect two more
in the center of the empire, and Ger
man firms had the contract for equip
ment.
'Tf the manufacturing industries OF
America show a disposition 10 treat
Russia fairly they will stand splendid
chance of getting all of the business
that Germany has been getting for
many years. Russia will look TO
America for a great deal of this trade
for the next ten years. Despite the
war, Russia is prosperous, and her In
dustries and agricultural pursuits are
going along as If there had been no
conflict"
