DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee" at any
pharmacy. Take tablespoonful of the
tea, put a cup of boiling water upon
it, pour through sieve and drink a
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. It is the most
effective way to break q cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus driving a cold from the
system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
cold or the grip. It is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe

WARNS BUSINESS MEN
TO STOP GUESSING
Eloquent Address before Chamber OF
Commence by j. II. Faher.

Washington, Feb. S.--Warning to
American business men to place less de-
pendcnce upon tho proverbial American
guess. and to become less partisan in
dealing with great economic questions
and to Systematically discourage the
prevalent disparagement Of the efforts
of men in public life" was voiced by
John II. Fahey, president of the Cham
her of Commerce OF the United States
at the opening of its fourth annual con-
vention to-day.
II am convinced said Mr.. Fahey,
that if We are quite frank with our
selves We must realize that for many
years we have been very poorly informed
as to the real facts involved in great
questions between the country of special
interest to us Tho workmen in their
organizations and the farmers in theirs
have been far better posted on matters
of particular Importance to them than
have tho business men in their field but
we have now come to tho period in the
history Of America when less dependence
can he placed upon the provcrbial Amer
lean guess We must begin to do CON
strlctvc thinking.
Il believe also that American business
men would be much more useful to the
country and to themselves il they were
less inclined toward craftsmanship in deal
ing with tho great economic questions
which SO vitality affect their interests
A number Of our most important prob
lens would have been disposed Of in
Congress years ago, but for petty poll
tics
Another thing We business men should
set ont Systematically to discourage is
the altogether too prevalent and CON
tinuous dispara cement of the efforts Of
men in public life"
