Philadelphia. Encouraged lv the ,
success attending their campaign to !
reduce tht- cost of living through the
sale of "selected" storage eggs at a
price from 6 to 20 cents a dozen '
cheaper than has heretofore prevail
ed, officers of the housekeepers' i
league announced their intention ofi
broadening the scope of their activi-
ties.
Offers from farmers in Pennsylva- 1
nia. Delaware. Maryland and Virginia I
to supply the league with other pro-!
duct at prices which would enable '
their distribution at a much less costl
than now charged by the retailers
have been rereived. according to Mrs.
Daniel W. Simpkins. vice president
of the organization.
Since the inauguration of the cam
paign for lower prices the league has
disposed of 18.000 crates or 540.000
dozen eggs a 24 cents a dozen at six.
ty stations in different sections of the
city.
The quickest, bet nd safest way
to cure catarrh or a toll in the head
Is by 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
trouble and instantly relieves even
the wors case of catarrh pr cold. A
few minutes after applied you can
feel a loosening up in the head, the
l ain and soreness are gone, the sense
of taste, smell and hearing come back,
and you feel like a different person.
Ely's Cream Halm cleanses, heals
and strengthens the inflamed mem
branes, takes away that stuffed up
feeling and dull pain in the head, re
lieves the throat orenesa 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 perma.
nene relief by the use of this simple
remedy.
Don't suffer another minute. Ely's
ream Halm will reliieve you im
mediately, and a 50 cent bottle will
more than likely work a complete
cure. All druggists sell it.
and naturally will be carfully
handled.
After New Year's daily delivery of
fggs to city residents from the country
will be the rule, rather than the exception.
A Des Moines man had an attack
of muscular rheumatism in his shoul
der. A friend advised him to go to
Hot Springs. That meant an expense
of J 150.00 or more. He sought for
a quicker and cheaper way to cure
it and found ft in Chamberlain's Lin
iment. Three days after the first
application of this liniment he was
well. For sale by all dealers.

TESTING PHILADELPHIA EGGS.
Pennsylvania Food Bureau IKter
niinlnjr Their Standard.
Philadelphia. The Housekeepers'
league, which began the sale of "se
lected" storage eggs at 24 cents a
dozen a few days ago in order to
break the high price of the product,
reported that sales at all the egg sta
tions continued brisk. The busiest
station was the plaza at City Hall,
where thousands of dozens were sold.
It was learned that the state dairy
and food bureau is closely watching
the big sale. A special agent of the
bureau has made numerous pur
chases of the 24-cent eggs, and they
are being examined by a chemist to
determine whether they are as good
as represented.
COLDS GO
OVER NIGHT
If your head Is stuffed up and you
have a hard cold you can quickly get
rid of the misery.
First look after the bowels; any
good cathartic will do; then breathe
Booth's HTOMEI which promptly
kills germ life and heals the mem
brane. Breathe HTOMEI (pronounce it
High-o-rne) in the daytime through
the little hard rubber inhaler, and
just before going to bed at night do
this: Put a scant teaspoonful of
HTOMEI into a kitchen bowl of boil
ing water, cover the head and bowl
with towel and breathe for several
minutes the soothing, healing vapor
that arises. This treatment is also
fine for sore throat and catarrh. Com
plete HTOMEI outfit including in
haler, $1.00; extra bottles if needed,
"Oc. TaHman & Co. is authorized to
refund jour money if dissatisfied.
You will find that druggists every
where speak well of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. They know from long
experience In the sale of it that In
cases of coughs and colds it can al
ways be depended upon, and that it
is pleasant and safe to take. For sale
by all dealers.

LIFE SENTENCE FOR
YOUTHFUL GUX
TOTERS
Chicago. The new law fixing the
penalty for robbery with deadly
weapons was invoked here when two
young highwaymen were sentenced to
life terms by Judge Burke in the
criminal court. Joseph Williams and
George Kebler, confessed bandits, are
just 21 years old and Judge Burke
commented on this In imposing sen
tence.
"It is a sad thing," he said, "but
society must be protected. Here we
have two able-bodied young men who
have cast aside every prospect In life
but justice can only say that the se
verity of the punishment Is fitted to
the crime."
