E lectric and M ech an ical Toy*
E lec tric toys should never be
handled w ith wet hands. I f a young
ster has been playing in the ra in
or snow, he should put on d ry cloth
ing before playing w ith electric
toys. A heavy m itten w orn by a
child when using a play ele c tric
iron or stove w ill help prevent hand
burns. A ll electric toys should be
of approved design and construc
tion such as those b earing the label
of the U n d e rw rite rs ’ L ab orato ries,
Inc. A ll electric toys should be
m aintained in a safe condition. A t
the firs t sign of a defect, the neces
sary rep airs should be m ade or the
toy discarded.
RELIEF AT LAST
ForTour COUGH
Creomulsion relieves promptly because
it 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. T ell your druggist
to sell you a bottle of Creomulsion
with the understanding you must like
the way it quickly allays the cough
or you are to have vour money back.
V "Four of us were proceeding up Mobile Bay in a 26-fooc cruiser
when— creth!— our boat struck a submerged log! A hole gaped
in the hull! W e realized the boat would sink quickly!
A "We sw u n g the cra ft

hour wind. Only the top of
the cabin was above water.

near-by Coast Guard statioa.
"After we had clung to
