SAFE REMEDY ENDS
GIVES INSTANT RELIEF, CURES
AND PREVENTS CATARRH
AND COLD IN THE.
HEAD V
The quickest, best and safest way
to cure catarrh or a cold in the head
is using a remedy that will "touch
the spot" and do its work quickly
without leaving any bad effects. Ely s
Cream Balm, which is applied to the
nostrils or rubbed on the throat or
chest gets right at the root of the tro
uble and instantly relieves even the
worst case of catarrh or cold. A few
minutes after applied you can feel a
loosening up in the head, the pain and
soreness are gone, the sense of taste,
smell and hearing come back, and you
feel like a different person.
Ely's Cream Balm cleanses, heals
and strengthens the inflamed mem
branes, takes away that stuffed up
feeling and dull pain in the head, re
lieves the throat soreness and stops
the nasty discharge which is the cause
of the disgusting hawking, spitting,
blowing of the nose, and foul breath.
Hay fever victims who are made mis
erable by fits of sneezing, coughing
and wheezing get instant and perman
ent relief by the use of this simple
remedy.
Don't suffer another minute. Ely's
Cream Balm will relieve you immedi
ately, and a 50 cent bottle will more
than likely work a complete cure. All
druggists sell it.

The Life of a Drop of Water.
A "Germuii professor named Meinar
dus has amused himself with calculat
ing. how long a drop of water stays in
the ocean before it' is evaporated and
how soon ii returns to the sea. Calcu
latinghe t'. ies not say how the total
evaporation from, the surface of the
ocean and estimating the total volume
of water in the oceans, a drop o'f water
entering the ocean will stay there 3.4G0
years provided it awaits its turn to be
evaporated. However,, the professor
admits that the surface water stands
a good chance of getting ahead of its
turn.. The average stay out of the
ocean Is only twelve ' days before it
has fallen in rain and run back again
to the sea. Boston Globe.
