the Thursday morning programs, were
the chief issues.

American ships carrying eontraband however, still may be destroyed. What effect this can have in praetie- al operation is probematical, because Germany and Great Britain in their

 German naval commanders now are ordered to exercise the rights of visit and search with respect to all Ameri- can ships to determine what cargo the vessels carry, thus making 1t prac- tieally sue that none will be attack ed without warning or ample time for passengers and crew to be transfer red, irrespective Of the cargo.

STOP BUYING EXPENSIVE
COUGH REMEDIES
Make the Best at Home

Money spent for the old style, ready
made, cough syrups in bottles holding
only to 215 ounces is very largely
wasted, because most of them are
composed principally of sugar and
water. Yet you have to pay the same
price as if it was all medicine. Stop
wasting this money. You can make a
better cough medicine at home at one
fifth the cost. Merely go to J. T..
Kruegers Drug Store and ask for
ounces (5Oc worth) of Schiffmann's
Concentrated Expectorant. Mix this
with one pint of graduated sugar and
one half pint of boiling water, which
makes a full pint &c ounces). This
new, simple, pleasant remedy is qua
ranteed to relieve the worst cough or
cold. Also excellent for Bronchial
Asthma, Bronchitis, Group, hoarsenes
and whooping cough. One bottle will
make enough home made cough
medicine to probably last the whole
family the entire winter. Children
like it, it is so pleasant to take and it
positively contains no chloroform,
opium, morphine or other narcotics
as do most cough mixtures. Keep it
on hand in case of emergency and
stop each cough before it gets firm
hold. The above druggist has been au-
thorized to return the money in every
single case where it does not give
perfect satisfaction or is not found
the best remedy ever used. Abso-
lutely no risk in run in buying this
remedy under this positive guarantee
