FLASH PICTURES.
 ACROSS COUNTRY
Chicago Tribune Publishes Cuts
 Of Football Game

Chicago. Jan. 2,--Transmission of pictures across the continent by tele- graph by an instrument known as teiepix. Telegraph pictures,) has been demonstrated as practicable. says today Chicago Tribune, which is joint owner with the New York Daily News of the process. Pictures of the Notre Dame and Stanford game at Pasadena, Cal, were transmitted by the teleplx to Chicago and New York for printing today in the formal inauguration of the operation. N...
 The teiepix machine will both send and receive pictures by telegraphic dots and dashes. requiring an hour to 75 minutes to transmit an ordin- ary photograph. The number of telegraphic signals required for one picture Is said to be fewer than half the number of dots and dashes neces sary to telegraph 1000 word news dispatch.
 According to its owners, the tele- pix Is easier to operate than a five tube radio set and takes up less room. Only bad weather, interrupt ing telegraph facilities, can incapaci- tate the machine.
 The sending operator fixes to a drum copper half tone plate made from a photograph. Where each of the thousands of dots appears on the plate an electrical contact Is estab- lished. On the receiving machine the transmitted dots are recorded on chemically impregnated paper fast ened to similar drum. 1t telegraphs forty dots second.
 Laboratory and experimental work has been under way for year and tests made of the telepix for the last two months, the Tribune says.

Knocks Elm Out Quick Toughest of Old Hang On Coughs Go

Why send boy to do mans work? Sweet, sugary cough syrups may help simple cough, but when you are travelling along towards the cemetery with a stubborn tight old cough that fingers on and on with the most persistent divilishness then you need real cough medicine-and the realest destroyer of tough old coughs is Bronchuline Emulsion.
 The cough may be SO tantalizing that you can't sleep nights and your days may be filled with racking tor ture, yet that's just the kind of cough that Bronchuline likes to tackle and conquer.
 Many times few doses will stop the hacking and loosen things up and you can depend upon half bottle to make two months cough quit cold and disappear,
 Life Is sweet--it will be much sweeter when you get rid of that old time cough.
 Ask Axelrods Pharmacy or any wide awake druggist for a bottle of Bronchuline Emulsion, There's no dope in it--or chloroform, and a couple of teaspoonfuls will usually end any ordinary cough.
