Be Quick To Treat
Bronchitis

Chronic bronchitis may develop If
your cough, chest cold, or acute bror-
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with any medi-
cine less potent than Cfeomulsion
which goes right to the seat OF the
trouble to help loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, inflan1ed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote by special process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
1t contains no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per-
mitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv)

Govt. Grading Of Meats Aids
 John Public

If you want to make sure of getting your moneys worth out of what you spend for beef, veal, or lamb, it will pay you to know the Federal meat grades says w. o. Fras-r of the U. s. Depart ment of Agriculture. MT. Fraser heads up the meat-grading work If the Agricultural Marketing Service, the agency in charge of Federal meat grading.
 As surely as tn butchers scales show you how much meat you are getting MT. Fraser points out, the purple grade stamp indicates the quality of the meat.
 This purple grade stamp vouches for the fact that the m at has been judged for qual- ity by competent officials. On a large cut of meat this stamp has the appearance of narrow pale purple ribbin. A closeup view shows the grade name printed

CLOSE CALL

COLUMBIA, s. C., Feb. - Dr s. M Derrick of the University of South Carolina arrived at the point of satiety in his lecture.
 Said he, explaining:
 If you need but two suits of = othes. then you have reached a point of satiety, and you won't have another suit unless it is for special occasion Now I don't need a suit of golf clothes be cause I don't play golf; tennis quit because I don't play tennis; or a full dress suit because I'm flu ly dressed |. '
 How about bathing suit2' inquired a student.
 T don't need a bathing suit the doctor began.

clearly over and over with ANS fhs initials of the Agricultural Marketing Service, stamped oc- casionally. The grade stamp will appear on every retail cut.
 Also purple, but not to be con fused with the grade identifica- tion, Is the round stamp used in F derai meat inspection. The round purple stamp shows that the meat has passed the inspec- ton of other Federal experts who examine it for it's whole someness as food.
 Both stamps are of a harmless V getable coloring and need not be cut off before cooking"
