This Nurse Just Couldn't Stop Coughing Sp3ciaIi.ts Didn't Help

It takes more than ordinary sweet, syrupy cough mixtures to stop stubborn cough that persists in hanging on,
 For slight ordinary coughs almost any decent cough syrup will do, but if you have one of those tough ones that won't yield to common reme- dies and often keeps you awake at night then your one best bet is Bron- chulne Emulsion.
 Often one-half bottle forces the most stubborn cough to yield and you are better almost before you know it.
 There is no sugar, chloroform or dope in BronchuIine Emulsion; it's a wonderful medicine for people who are getting over a heavy cold or an attack of Flu.
 A New York nurse just couldn't stop coughing even after consulting specialists yet one half bottle of Bronchuline Emulsion did stop it. completely.
 Ask Axelrod's Pharmacy or any good dealer for bottle-often three or four doses will stop an ordinary cough.

RANGER A. |. HAS
 BANQUET TONIGHT
Popular Organization to Enter
 tain Members and Guests

The Ranger Athletic clubs annual banquet and dance is to be held this evening at the Norden Bungalow and everything points to one of the best affairs of its kind that the younger element has held in a long time. At this time the Rangers and their in- vited guests will celebrate the sec ond anniversary of their organiza- tion's incorporation. Among the in vited guests are Mayor A. NJ. Pao- nessa, eX-Mayor George A. Quigley, the executive personnel of the Grim son A. C., of Hartford and news papermen who always are interested in the clubs welfare.
 Since the incorporation of the Ranger A. C. the officers have work ed hard, but have succeeded in sur mounting the various difficulties that accompany such an undertaking. To President Al SelfeIs and Messrs. May and C. Hills goes no little credit for the success that has been at tained. It was not until the fall of "-- hliNlt S SoIOdp cL ALS SOullEo men in the eastern section of the city organized a football team that a club was thought of. Following a successful gridiron season, the club was started and today it has a large membership and comfortable quar- ters.

 The last football team was excep- tionally good, losing but two games. The members will probably hear some laudatory remarks tonight, as will their coach, George Kingsbury.
 A minstrel troupe is another ac- tivity which the club members en- joy. The club membership is not restricted to other than clean living young mon and the rooms are open to guests and prospective members.

Force PostpOnement of
 Annual Military Ball

Friday the 18th seems to have proved an unlucky day for Eddy Glover post, American Legion, for it now appears that the Legion ball, scheduled, for Friday, February IS, will have to be postponed. Orders received this morning by Captain w. W. T. Squire of Company l, c. N. c., are to the effect that the annual in- spection of that company and of the headquarters unit will be made on that date. This inspection will be made by federal army officers whose itinerary has been made out and in- cludes all dates through April, so that there is no likelihood of having the date of the inspection changed. It is thought that the ball will be postponed one week until Friday, February 20.
 Company II will be inspected on the preceding day, February 12. Records, armory, equipment, and personnel are included in this sur vey, the companies reporting at 7:3O o'clock in the evening.

 AS COMPULSORY
This Is Recommendation to
 Mass. State Legislature

Boston, Jan. 2S,-Compulsory lia- bility insurance covering personal injury only is recommended in the report of a special committee ap- pointed at the last session of the legislature to study the motor v4- hicle and traffic problem in Massl- chusetts, filed today with the clerk of the senate.
 An increase in the motor vehicle registration fees to yield estimatGl additional revenue of $4,000,000 ie also recommended by the commit tee. Creation of a traffic board IS recommended and the report pro poses a change in procedure where by minor offenses will be reporred by the police to the registrar of mo tor vehicles instead of summoning the offenders to court as at present. A maximum speed limit of 35 1ailcs an hour and repeal of the horn blowing law are favored,
 The committee would give the po- lice commissioner of Boston author ity to appoint as many traffic po- licemen as he needs and the regis trar of motor vehicles power 10 ap- point a squad of men to check up motor vehicle equipment.

On bill proWd- ing for a traffic subway in Boston, which was specifically referred 10 the committee for investigation, it recommends a further study by the division of metropolitan planning.
 The committee was unanimous in all its recommendation except for one dissenter on compulsory liability insurance, and the minority report on a citizen constabulary. Senator John w. Haigis of Greenfield, chair man, and Senator John E. Thayer of Lancaster, signed this report which calls for a body of not more than 200 citizens to be appointed by the motor traffic board, to serve without pay but 10 have all the powers of regular inspectors except the power of arrest, and to report violations to the traffic board.
