Beware Coughs
from common colds
That Hang On

No matter how many medicines
you have tried for your cough, chest
cold or bronchial irritation, you can
get relief now with. Creomulsion.
Serious trouble may be brewing and
you cannot afford to take chance
with anything less than Creomul-
sion, which goes right to the seat
of the trouble to cid nature to
soothe and heal the infiamed menu
branes as the germ-laden phlegm
is loosened and expelled.
Even If other remedies have
failed, don't be discouraged, your
druggist is authorized to guarantee
Creomulsion and to refund your
money If you are not satisfied with
results from the very first bottle.
Get Creomulsion right now. (Adv.)

move a rod back and forth inside
the box. There is also stationary
rod in the box, and the test con-
sists in pulling the movable rod
back or forth until it is exactly
opposite the stationary one. It is
hard to do, but practice helps.
Need Eyes to Penetrate Fog
What we ought to do is to de-
velop eyes that will penetrate fog,
and see the mountains behind it.,
as the mira REQ. rays do.
Ear tests on the pilot have more
to do with that part Of the ear. that
has control over the sense OF
equilibrium. AS matter Of fact,
in the evolutionary sense, that part
Of the ear is the oldest. The most
primitive ear we find in the animal
kingdom is a little sack with a
stone in it, rolling about on sensi-
tive hairs. For millions Of years,
animals in the primeval seas could
sense motion but they could not
hear. This part Of the primitive
ear evolved into our semicircular
canals, the sense organ Of equi-
librium and Of knowledge Of what
position the body is in space. Did
you ever stop to think that even
with your eyes closed you know
whether you are lying down or
standing up, or standing on your
head? You have always taken
that for granted, but it is per-
formed by a very delicate and in
tricate mechanism.
That mechanism must be perfect
in the aviator. It is tested by the
turning chair. IF you ere whirled
in one direction with the eyes shut,
10 turns in 20 seconds, and then
open your eyes. they should. jerk
sideways for about "a seconds.
This jerking is called "nystagmus'
and is perfectly normal. If it does
not occur, the fight surgeon
knows that the candidate will not
be able to recognize his position In
space, and therefore VIII be q DAN
gerous pilot.

with the A, cashed the diamond q
and overlook the diamond j with
the K to cash the diamond 10 and
try another finesse in spades. The
5 was led from dummy and the 10
finessed, which held, but it was
only possible to get one more trick
in spades and consequently the
contract was set one.
With only one entry into the
dummy, after the club A was
knocked out. and hoping for two
more illnesses, the correct play of
spades was to have led the 5 on
the first round and finessed the 10.
Then when the dummy was en-
tered with the diamond K, the
spade 9 could have been led. and
if it held another finesse could
have been tried from dummy.
