Physician Tells
When Weak Lungs
Are Dangerous
If Lung Trouble Is In Family
and Coughs and Colds
Hang On
READ THIS GOOD ADVICE

Folks who know they have weak
lungs or those in q rundown condt-
ton who are bothered with night
sweats, and evening temperature
should be careful about catching" a
cold.
The average cold" even when OBJ
stinate or prolonged does not seem
like a very serious matter-but 1t Is
what 1t may lead to" that causes
the concern of nearly every medical
man.
1t is this fact. together with the
further knowledge that most folks
(even those who do know better) in
variably neglect a cold-that makes
the condition almost dangerous.
Weak LungsAwhether from in
heritance, a rundown condition or
the continued neglect Of obstinate
coughs and colds-should be given
careful attention.
During many years Of successful
private practice in treating Coughs,
Colds, Grippe, Flu, Bronchial Trou-
bles and Lung Weakness-I have
used a special creosote prescription
called NIX" (Mentho- Kreoamo)
with remarkable results-and l am
telling about it now, SO that anyone
who cares to may try it in their own
home at little expense.

good druggists can now supply the

physicians bottle with full direc-
tions covering use from childhood to
old age MIX" is pleasant and per-
fectly harmless, but its action Is
swift and positive when used in time.

eat present there appears to be
a good deal Of uncertainty as to the
relation of the State to the State Pier

Gasoline Tax
1.-The Legislature of 1923 placed
a tax Of one cent gallon on internal
combustion engine fuels and requir-
ed the collection of same through
the office of the State Auditor. This
act became effective July Z. 1923 and
there was collected to June 3Oth.,

of gasoline purchased from distri-
butors by people in this State. The

Il am pleased to report that this
tax has been collected at a minimum
of cost, the total expense for pos
tage. printing and blank forms for
the first year being oaly $330.S3. No
additions to the staff of the office
have been necessary as we have
handled the extra work with our
regular force. II the tax is increas-

pense of collecting will naturally be
much greater. l wish at this time to
extend the thanks of this Office to
the distributors of the State, who,
without exception. have shown a
Willingness to cooperate in the en-
forcement Of the law.

Lloyd's Funny Car Only One in
World-InVents Car for Thrills
and Laughs in "HOt Water"

Harold Lloyd introduces a new
type of light automobile to the
screen in his latest comedy. Hot
Water" showing today at the Colo
NAL theatre. He is the sole creator,
the inventor. and the producer. 1t
is the Butterfly Six (no advertising
intended) and If. through it, YOU
don't receive more laughs than YOU
have had for many a day, there IS
something wrong with Your sense of
humor. Your funny bone needs CHI
ropractic treatments.
For the Butterfly Six" is the CEN
ter of one of the swiftest and fun
niest factions that has ever been
seen in one of Harold Lloyd's come
dies. There are two other rib-tick-
ling sequences in this picture that
are guaranteed purchasers, but for
originality and cleverness the one In
volving the Butterfly Six" is the
equal of either.
Harold takes the family out for a
ride in his new car, or rather his
wife's family takes him out in his
car, and IL there is anything that
could happen to a new automobile,
and doesn't in this picture, Mr.. Lloyd
will give the remains to the one tell
ing what he forgot to put into the
sequence.
This part of Hot Water" was de-
veloped in Mr.. Lloyd's mind, and Is
the consequence of trip the noted
comedian took to Big Bear Valley
several years ago when the machine
in which he was riding was involved
In every kind of an accident, broke
every part Imaginable. and wound up
by going up in smoke coming down
one Of the worst grades on the
mountain road. Lloyd never could
forget this incident, and in Hot
Water he found Just the spot to re-
late what was actually an expert
ence Of his own.
