Has He Found a
 Cure for Asthma?
Simple Prescription Gives Instant Re-
 Ief-Mal1es Breathing Easy.

In New England. where bronchial asthma, bronchitis and other diseases of the throat and lungs are so preva- lent, remarkably successful results are being reported following the use of new form of treatment known as Oxi- daze, physicians prescription.
 OXidaze Is a harmless but powerful con. pima tion of curative essential oils coreentrated and compressed into small tablet. One of these tablets slowly dissolved before going to bed seems to- have the effect of releasing the muscular construction of the bron. chial tubes. opening up the air passages and regulating spasmodic lung action. This enables the patient to breathe easily and naturally while lying down and tc get comfortable nights sleep
 So much interest has been shown that local druggists, including Lee & OsgocG Co., have secured a small sup ply and state that they are authorized to refund the money paid for the first package if in any case this new treat meat falls to give relief. Oxidaze Is pleasant to take, contains no harmful ff bit forming drugs and Is not expen2 sive This makes their test an easy alter.

Red Cross Roll Call A Success.

Officials of the Southern Division
of the American Red Cross are now
planning the most extensive cam
paign of activity yet undertaken by
the worlds greatest organization for
humanitarian service. The extensive
nature Of this program is made pos
sible by the success of the Roll Call,
concluded on Thanksgiving day.
All reports are not yet in, but the
reports that have been received clear
ly indicate that despite national bus
mess depression and the particularly
uncertain condition of the South's
finances, the people of the South have
realized the Importance of maintain
ing the Red Cross organization and
its permanent peace time program.
Assurances are given that not on
ly will the present chapter work be
maintained throughout the division,
but in many instances. it will be en-
larged. The number of visiting nur-
ses will be maintained, while home
service particularly for war veterans
and the members of their families
will be carried on along broader lines
even than during the past year.
In short, the Red Cross has now
had assurance of sustained public
support which will permit of sta
bilized, systematic program. bring
ing the greatest amount of good to
the greatest number of people in
each community, year in and year
out.
1t was a noteworthy fact, in con-
nection with the Roll Call that where
ever the Red Cross workers came in
most intimate contact with the peo-
pie of a community, that community
responded to the Roll Call appeal in
the greatest ratio.
This was particularly true in the
small, isolated settlements, where
the Red Cross chapter was the one
organization for social service, and
where the Red Cross nurse was not
only nurse. but teacher, and some-
times spiritual adviser Of the entire
neighborhood.
Means were small in these little
settlements but the response to the
Red Cross appeal was more than gem
erous.
