BREAK up BRONCHIAL COUGHS, : :. -
GROUP AND COLDS PROMPTLY
Make the Best Remedy at Teaspoonsful

Don't neglect your first cold, cough
or any Bronchial affection, this fall,
but commence treatment Immediately
and through using the proper medi-
cine, it can be checked from the very
start and promptly cured, but if
neglected probably will hang on all
winter; if it does not develop into
something more serious, such as
Pneumonia or Consumption. True,
there are hundreds, yes thousands of
cough remedies on the market. While
some are good, there are many which
are not, but are positively harmful,
due to the narcotics which they con-
tain. But why experiment with
these different remedies purely on
the strength perhaps of some testi-
monials or on the exaggerated claims
of manufacturers, when Schiffmann's
New Concentrated Expectorant is
sold by Bankers Drug Store on such
positive guarantee to give perfect
satisfaction, yes even more-money

found the best remedy ever used in
Severe Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough or Group, and it will also be
found excellent for Bronchial Asth-
ma and Bronchitis. Besides these
druggists guaranteeing that it will
be the best remedy ever used" it will
likewise be found the most econom-
ical, because one bottle $50 cents
worth) makes full pint CPS tea
spoonsful of the most excellent
medicine for any of the above affec-
tions, when mixed at home with one
pint of granulated sugar and one
half pint of water. It makes as
much, or more, than would cost you
$500 to $500 of almost any of the
ordinary ready-made kinds, sold in
bottles holding only "a to 80 tea
spoonsful. You will be the sole
judge yourself and under the same
positively Money Back" guarantee
which the druggists made for the ia
nous Asthmador. Absolutely no risk
is run in buying this remedy.-Adv.

DAILY WAR ANALYSIS.
by J. W. T. Mason.)
United Press Staff
CORRESPONDENT

| 4 x x K x X x x 4 x X K X x y
It is highly improbable that Sc
rious revolution has broken out IN
India and that Lord Kitchener's real
reason for leaving England is to pro-
coed to the far east and save Brit
aims great dependency from revolu-
tionists
Revolutionary Spirit.
There is prevalent always more or
less revolutionary spirit in India, and
unquestiOnably German agents have
been trying to incite the people TO
sedition since the beginning of the
war. But, despite the stringency Of
the Indian censorship, it would be
impossible to keep secret the facts of
the important revolutionary move
ments, if such were occurring.
| Has Trading Ships.
India is in communication by
trading ships with the rest of the
world, and even if no other methods
of obtaining news were available,
traders, in all probability, could be
relied upon to reveal seditious &C
tivities. There are Hindu revolu-
tionary committees outside India,
too, which almost certainly would
hear of insurrectionist outbreaks
and would joyously circulate the de-
tails.
Japan May Assist. +
If an outbreak among the natives
were really threatened in India, it is
practically certain that Great Britain
would obtain troops from Japan to
put down the rebellion. The trans
portation of large body of Japanese
soldiers could not be concealed. No
reports have been circulated that
Japan is sending an army to any part
Of the globe. : :"
Responsible for Services. =
While MOhammedans in India
might possibly be stirred to revolt
by the failure of the Allies campaign
against Constantinople, yet it is
probable they are far more impressed
by the success of the Anglo-Indian
force in Mesopotamia. The .impend-
ing capture by the British Of BagdaG,
one Of. the hottest of Mohammedan
spiritual centers, is undoubtedly be-
ing circulated in India with large eff
feet. The Mesopotamian and Bagdad
expedition is the most successful
British military venture of the war.
It is being directed by the Indian Of
flee, and India officially is responsible
for it's success. The sedition leaders
