Now Americans develop new,
better Ephedrine prescription

With the discovery of the Chinese
drug Ephedrine, science took a great
step forward in its fight against head
colds! When you have a head-cold,
the membranes of your nose become
swollen, thus interfering with normal
breathing. Ephedrine has the remark
able power to shrink almost instantly
these swollen, irritated membranes
thus tending to clear the nasal passa-
ges, make normal breathing easier.
Now comes a new and important
development in the use of this mar
velous drug! The makers of REM for
Coughs have perfected a remarkable
Ephedrine prescription for use in re-
heving head-colds. It is called REL.
REL combines a special form of
Ephedrine with another valuable in
gredient. In step with advanced med
ical opinion, REL is water soluble"
-. not an oil . so it mixes instantly
with the watery secretions of the nose.
That's why REL is absorbed so quick
ly.. works so fast. 1t actually starts
relief in half-a-minute! REL reduces
the swelling. releases the mucus. %.

easier. Don't just ask for Ephedrine!

HE GUESSED WRONG
If it were not for the Govern
ment suit calling upon produc.
ers Of the industry to separate
themselves from theater opera
ton, or exhibition, the movies
would have no cloud in the sky
Of business optimism. Labor
Day business everywhere showed
. definite upturn.
How closely the big producers
Of the nation are allied with
exhibition may be gathered
from the fact that Paramount
owns, either wholly or in part,
some 1000 theaters, Warner
Bros. operate SGT, Loew's has
119 in key cities, RKO controls
124 and Twentieth Century-Fox
has a AZ per cent ownership in
some $40 houses.
While each company has
fortified itself with a group of
high.powered lawyers, there is
more and more behind the
the scenes talk that the Govern
ment action will be settled by
a consent decree, providing the
things that Uncle Sam desires,
under a new Self-regulation
policy.
BY this time it is generally
conceded that the movies are
here to stay, that they have
won their place on the enter
tainment map, and that they
are no longer considered serious
opposition to the Spea king
stage, or legitimate theater.
The movies then, can glance

piou Joe Louis and challenger

As crowds milled about the HIP

now seemed certain to run wen
over a million"

Schmcling completed heavy
training at his Spectator, n. T.,
Camp without cuts, bruises or IN
iurcd hands. He wound up his
boxing four rounds with two spar
mates. Trainer Max Machon pro-
nounccd him in the best condition
of his career and predicted that
Schmeling would make shorter
work of Louis this time than IN
their previous IL rounds. Make
