Inc does the four things necessary
to rout a cold decisively and thor
ough1y. First Of all, it opens the
bowels, gently but thoroughly
the first step necessary in knock
ing a cold. Second, it kills the cold
germs in the system, drives out
the poisonous infection and re-
duceS the fever. Third, it relieves
the headache and that grippy feel
ing. Fourth, it tones the entire
system and fortifies against fur
ther attack.
Thus it is the complete treat
ment you need.
Swift, POsitiOe, Harmless!
Effective as it is, Groves Laxa-
tive Bromo Quinine is absolutely
safe for old and young to take.
It contains no narcotics, does not
upset the stomach or nauSeate or
cause ringing in the head.
In the form Of dainty tablets,
Groves Laxative Bromo Quinine
is convenient and pleasant to take.
Comes in handy, pocket-SiZe boxes,
cellophane-wrapped. All druggists
in America sell Groves Bromo
Quinine and few will offer a sub
stitute because they know its
merit, famous for years. Keep it
handy all winter and you will be
in a position to stop a cold before
it really gets started. Get a box

Leaders of Prince Georges
Predict a Majority
of $500

With Republican opposition
weak and disorganized, Prince
Georges Democratic leaders
are confidently predicting the
Democratic slate will carry the
county Tuesday by a $500
majority.
That majority. they declare,
will be given both to the presi-
Dental ticket Of Roosevelt and
Garner and to Senator Millard
e. Tydings and Representative
Stephen w. Gambrill, who are
seeking reelection.
The Democrats advance three
arguments in support Of this
claim:
l. Their party has COINED 3.130
votes on the registration books
since 1880 to ATS votes for the
Republicans, giving the Demo
Gratis a statistical majority Of
3,130 in the county
z. Dissatisfaction among Re-
publican ranks with the Hoover
Administration, which is expected
to swing votes not alone to Roose-
velt but to Tydings and Gam
brill as well.
3. The immense personal pop
ularity Of the Democratic slate,
Representative Gambrill, in par.
ticular, observers declare, has at
tanned a following throughout his
district equaled by no one since
the late Representative Sydney e.
Mudd, ST., Of Charles county.
And no last-minute reversals,
the Democrats are convinced, are
going to make any appreciable
change in the result Of Tuesdays
voting in Prince Georges county.

A cold Is nothing to trifle with.
You can't tell where it will end. Be
serious in your treatment Of cold
-and-be intelligent!
Don't fall for halfway meas
ureS. They leave you with a half
cured cold-and there's nothing
more dangerous.
A cold calls for a COLD remedy.
Preparations good for a number of
other things besides colds won't
do. They only allay temporarily
the symptoms of the cold while
the cold itself goes on taking
deeper and deeper root in your
system. Several of the remedies
which people commonly take for
colds actually make the relief of
a cold more difficult because these
remedies are conStipating and also
make the system acid.
A cold also calls for internal
medication. For a cold is an in
ternal infection. Local or surface
treatments can't reach the seat
Of the trouble and can't stop the
infection spreading within your
system.

APER is
BEST MEDIUM
Chain Store Is Sold on Local
Publications; to Discontinue
Use of Other Forms Of
Publicity

Handling and featuring nation
ally advertised foods, particularly
those advertised in local newspa-
pers, has proved so satisfactory for
Safeway Stores that, according to
an announcement by their presi-
dent, M. b. Skaggs, this big food
distributing concern will, in the
future, confine practically their
entire effort to this policy.
"We have found" Skaggs said,
"that the buying public is much
less skeptical and better satisfied
when offered brands with which
they have become intimately fa-
miliar thru reading about them in
their own newspapers than is the
case when they are offered an un-
known brand, even though the
quality of that unadvertised art
icle may be fully as good as that
of the well advertised item. Some
how, people seem to instinctively
mistrust merchandise whose maxi
ers are unwilling to come out in
black and white and tell the public
about it.
advertised brands, particularly
those featured in the local papers
in towns in which we have stores,
require little or no selling effort
and there is rarely any complaint
about either quality or price. IF
anything should go wrong with the
advertised goods the purchaser
does not blame us but places the
blame upon the manufacturer,
where it properly belongs. More
over, when buyers see an item adj
vertised by the manufacturer in
the same issue Of the paper which
we are offering that item for sale
they know, Immediately, right
where they can get it and we, as
well as other merchants, find our
own advertising more effective
and satisfactory. In fact our ex-
perience with the sale of foods adj
vertised by the manufacturer in
the same local papers in which
we advertise has been so satisfac-
tory that we plan to lend out maj
or support to such items"
Skaggs further announced that
his concern had practically dis
continued the use of handbills and
circulars and would, hereafter,
confine their advertising almost
exclusively to newspapers. He said
their experience in nationwide
merchandising had convinced them
that the local newspaper is the
most economical and effective
medium for reaching the public
and they were, therefore, elm
mating practically all other forms
of printed advertising.

Congressman Summers Urges
Utah and Idaho to Take
Advantage of Federal Coin
for New Roadway

SOnSl SSShiau ooih W. OhAhhSAS
of the Fourth Congressional Dis
trict of Washington has lost none
of his zeal for good roads.
After q recent Lewis and Clark
Highway conference with Con-
gresham French and others at
Lewiston, Idaho, Doctor Summers
wrote the District Engineer, of the
Bureau of Public Roads, Ogden,
Utah in part as follows:
During the past twelve years
no problem affecting the Pacific
Northwest has been brought to
my attention so frequently and
from so widespread sources as this
highway. From Charleston to Seat
tie and Portland every town, viii
1age and city has repeatedly ex-
pressed its great desire that this
highway be constructed.
Eastern Congressman who Wis
tied the Pacific Northwest with me
three years ago were outspoken In
It's favor and said that the FEEDER
u Government should not stand in
he way of the completion of this
.oad. They referred to the noun
ain range some 400 miles long as
Chinese wall that was controlled
by the Federal Government and
that gap should be cut thru that
wall.
s'We believe that thousands of
cars turn back from Yellowstone
that would come into our country
Were more direct route open to
them. We realize that the Lewis
and Clark highway cannot be COM
pleted Immediately but we are ex-
tremely anxious that it be desig-
mated as q part of the percent
system of the State of Idaho in
order that funds may be applied
when available. I have talked this
matter over with Chief Macdonald
many timesEalso with the For
estry Bureau, all Of whom are fav
Orably inclined.
81 most earnestly and respect
fully urge your favorable consid-
seration and report on the applica-
7ion from the Idaho State High
way Commission now pending be-
fore you"
Continuing Congressman Sum-
rners said, "The tourist today is a
valuable asset to the Pacific
Northwest. They spend many mil
Hons annually with our business
men and consume our farm, gar
den and orchard products. The
tourist income can be doubled and
stripled within few years when
two or three vital road links are
completed.
mot alone will business people
and producers on the direct line
sof travel benefit. Our entire
Northwest is closely linked in an
economic way and what benefits

sgineer and business man when
