BRONCHIAL cnuGHS

When the bronchial tubes are af-
tected with that weakening, tickling
cough, they need immediate and SEN
slble treatment The breath seems
shorter because of mucous obstruc-
tons; usually fever is present and
your head jars with every cough.
Your chest aches and the infamma-
tion often spreads to the lungs.
The food-tonic that has proven its
worth for forty years-is SCOTS Emul-
sion. 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 troSbled with bronchitis
or know an afflicted friend, always re-
member that SCOTS Emulsion builds
strength while relieving the trouble.

COTTON COUP
ACHECKMATE?

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept. Z.
Military experts expressed the
opinion this afternoon that when
Great Britain recently declared
cotton contraband, she had made
the most important move of the
war.
For smokeless powder-gun-
cotton-cannot be made without
cotton-or, at least, the wonder
full German chemists so far have
not made it without cotton.
And every time one of the i'm
mense 42-centimeter German
howitZers is fired to demolish an
other Russian fortress, A WHOLE
BALE OF COTTON is USED.
And not only used, but destroy
ed forever and instantaneously
transformed from a solid, highly
explosive substance into a gas
and vapor so thin that it is called
smokeless.
Never Before So Essential.
Then, too, bale is gone every
time the superdreadnaught Queen
Elizabeth discharges one of her
mighty guns at the forts which
guard the Dardanelles. Never be-
fore has cotton been SO essential

United States should find encour-
agement in these facts. thinks w.
T.. G. Harding, one OF the men,

which is financing the cotton crop

the growers can sell at a profit.

This cotton that Is shot

ly, too. 1t is not like the cotton
which Is made into shirt and
takes a year or two to wear out.
1t is exploded into gases and

Il am not sure how much cot

ent war, but | have seen II esti-
