Hay Fever Patients now
open Nose-Sinus Zone
with New 3-Layer Tablet
Clear, free breathing restored in minutes as
eongested nasal zone is deconeested-
stops sneezing. wotery. itching eyes

to combine the special ingredi-
ents which make this formula so
amazingly effective. Among
them is q new decongestant sub
stance so effective it has become
the single ingredient most pre-
scribed by doctors for relief of
congestion in the nose-sinus
area.
Available without Prescription
Now available without prescrip-
ton II this new Slayer tablet is
called Dristane. Its unique COM
bination of observation-disclosures
up blocked breathing, (2) stops
unpleasant sneezing, (3) clears
red, watery, itching eyes. At the
same time, Dristan helps the
body meet the great demands
put upon it by the stress and
strain of hay fever, and holsters
the body's resistance to infection.
Hay fever sufferers who want
faster, more complete relief than
they have ever before obtained
are advised to try Dristan De-
congestant Tablets-satisfaction
guaranteed, or money refunded.

Chicago, Ill. Especially Observ-
ers here are hailing a remark
able new advance against the
most unrelenting misery of hay
fever = congestion in the nose
sinus zone.
A ,oay has been found to de-
coRgest this congestion. This is
the central fact which has
aroused so much interest on the
part of hay fever sufferers who
have never found satisfactory
relief from other indications.
UP to now, nose drops, eye
drops, inhalers, sprays and anti
histamines have given some
measure of relief. But today you
can expect much more complete
comfort. This new compound
reaches all the cORgested nasal
areas from all sides, through the
blood stream. 1t opens stuffed
up, blocked nasal passages. Free
breathing is restored in minutes.
Stops unpleasant sneezing; wa
terry, itching eyes are cleared.

about the fine old country doctor who had
neither time nor inclination to dun patients

His loyal patients would have liked nothing

Four Points Explained For Veterans
Who Plan To Use CT Bill For School

For veterans entering college next
month or taking other types Of Ko-
rean .GI Bill training the Veterans
Administration offered four points
Of information.
First, it's essential for the vet
eranstudent to be as certain as
possible about the course he will
pursue, since the law allows a vet
eran only one change Of course To
help him select his educational and
vocational goal, he may secure vo-
cational counseling from VA if he
requests it.
Second the amount Of training
time veteran can have under the
Korean CT Bill is day and half
for each day Of active service he
had in the armed services, up to a
total Of Sc months Thirty six
months is the equivalent Of the
standard four-year course in col
lege.
Third, a veteran entering college
under the CT Bill has to expect a
certain time lag before he receives
his first allowance payment from
VA This usually runs to a little
less than two months. The law re-
quires that VA must receive a re
port on his first months attendance

bers from wire and feed sacks are

when using the DOT solution. Wait
% days when using toXaphene. No
waiting period is needed when
methoXychlor is used
Handle all insecticides with care.
If an Oil solution is spilled on the
skin, wash it off Immediately. Wash
your hands thoroughly as soon as
you finish handling Insecticides. Do

tllglDie IOr social security benefits

While social security il a retire
ment system. there are three oc-
casions when payments may be
made even though an individual
has not retired: at age ". regard
less OF the amount Of earnings: any
month between age IS $50 for
women and age 70 during which a
person earnings are 500 or less :.
and any calendar year after age
70 62 for women, during which a
persons earnings are $1,000 or less.
Employees may apply under item
If they earn 500 or less in a
/ month. Self employed people are
allowed benefits for any month in
which they do not engage in sub
stantlal services in their business.
| Under item 3 social security
checks may be due for some
months during the year if earnings
are 5000 or less. Below is a chart
which shows how many checks one
may keep, according to ones earn
ings, the first figures represent
annual earnings and the second the
number Of checks due.

There will never be fewer checks
paid than shown by the chart, but
more checks than are shown may
be paid. For example. if $500 were
earned. the chart indicates that
seven checks should be paid. II.
however. that individual did not
work for eight months. eight bene-
fit checks are due.
Despite the earnings for any
given month. benefits are not pay
able. of course. unless the claimant
is otherwise eligible. For example,
he must be of retirement age, be
insured in that month, and the per-
son on whose record he is receiv-
ing benefits must be entitled to a
check for that month.

security. write or call at your local
