HEAD COLDS ROUTED IN 5 HOURS
BY SPECIALISTS PRESCRIPTION
New Treatment Guaranteed to Danish Every Symptom
In Hours-Or No Cost

No matter how severe or how
long standing. the average Head
Cold can be banished in hours
through a remarkable new treat
ment perfected by a Cleveland spe.
cialist.
Nose and eyes clear up as though
by magic. Chilliness and that de-
pressed. useless feeling disappear.
Within hours-often in 80 min
utes-you are once more as happy,
healthy and full OF pep" as
though you had never had the
cold.
So successful has the new treat
ment proved in thousands of test
cases that it is now positively
guaranteed to Danish the worst Head
Cold in hours-or 1t costs you
nothing.
1t is known as DR.. Platts Rinex
Prescription, and was first discov-
cred in the clinical study of Hay
Fever, Asthma and other respira-
tory diseases at the Clinical Lab
oratories, Cleveland, Ohio. This
study confirmed the recent discov-
cry that Head Colds are not simply
a local surface disease. but are due
to an actual poisoning of the en-
tire system. This poisoning Is
caused by some sort of conges-
tion slowing up the normal BODY
processes.
Ordinary cold remedies mere
headache or fever medicines or
simple surface observation-disclosures

39,493 Cattle
Tested in State
For tuberculosis

Announcement was made Monday
by Herbert NJ. Tucker, chief of the
livestock division of the state depart
ment of agriculture, that in the last
six months of the past year 39,493
cattle We're tested in the state for
tuberculosis and SAG reactors were
found, or 13S percent.
The number of reac;ors found dur
ing that period was larger than dur
ing the first six months of 1924 be-
cause of the fact that more testing
was carried on in York county where
he disease is more prevalent. In
York county, during the period from
July l to Dec. 81. 1924 2,459 cattle
were tested and 1873 reactors were
found, or &c percent. Outside OF
York county the proportion OF reac-
tors found was only nine tenths of
one percent of the number of cattle
tested.

touched this systemic poisoning.
But Rinex, taken in simple cap
sule form and quickly absorbed
into the blood through the diges-
tive tract, goes direct to these
poisons and neutralizes them. The
result is complete and heavenly
relief in hours or less!
Ridiculous, then, to submit to
days and even weeks of misery:
uselessness and actual danger of
more serious trouble. Get pack
age of Rinex today and simply try
1t. Costs little more than ordi-
nary remedies. but much more eco
nomical in the end because one
dose often does the work. and re-

1.-THE farm Is Uncle Sans CHIEF
