What A Cough!
And howithurts, and nags
And disturhs vour slean

Chronic bronchitis may develop if
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron-
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with any medi-
cine less potent than Creomulsion
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, inflamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote byspecial process with other
time tested medicines for coughs
It contains no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist tc
sell you a bottle Of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per-
hitting rest and sleep, or you are *
have your money back. (Adv.)

Taxi Fare HEARINGS
Will Be Reopened
.ByPUC tomorrow
Solution Will Be Sought
In Controversy Over
Group Riding Rates

A new effort to get taxicab group
riding on legal rate basis will be
made tomorrow by the Public Utili-
ties Commission when it reopens
hearings on proposals for charges
per person for this type of service.
The hearing will begin at 10 am.
in the Board Room of the District
Building.
Whether the OPA will be repre-
sented or, if so, what position 1t
| will take, was conjectured last
night, although its officials recently
blocked proposed group-riding rates
on the ground they would constitute
a general increase" The majority
members of the PUG disagree with
this view.
These proposed rates have not
yet been announced, but are ex-
pected to be the center of argu-
ments during hearings beginning
tomorrow.
Violations Charged.
Cab drivers are reported to be
charging full regular fares for each
passenger in group-riding in viola
ton of existing PUG orders. The
practice has been stimulated, Off
cials say, by the disinclination Of
the public to take the time and
trouble to make specific reports of
overcharging. ,
In dissenting from the decision
of the PUG majority in ordering the
further hearing, Gregory Hankin,
the minority member, stated April
his contention that This is a part
of a plan to put the OPA on the
spot and to shift to it the blame
for fault which is ours
