The membrane of the throat and no3e is raw, sore and tender, and makes a lovely abiding place for germs to thrive and multiply. He advises an inexpensive home made remedy that will bring relief in less than a day and will stop all discharge and sooth and heal the inflamed membrane in a few days. Thousands are making this be neficial remedy at home and any one who hr.s catarrh or a cold can do the same. Pour three-nuarters of an ounce of Mentholized Arcine into a pint bottle, then fill the bottle with water that has been boiled. Gargle the throat as directed and snuff or spray the liquid into the nostrils twice daily. It's a simple way to get rid of cold and catarrh and keeps the nasal pas sage and throat clean and healthy. Nearly all druggists dispense Mentholized Arcine in vials con taining exactly three-quarters of an ounce, which is all you need to make a pint of thi3 healthful me dicine. is the dentrifice that contains the proper \ ties recommended as ' ideal by United States Army dental surgeons — MONDAY EVENING, DANCING IN BERLIN IS VERY COSTLY j Berlin, Nov. 17 —A self-styled j "expert" estimates that 750,000,- 000 murks a year is the cost of j dancing In Germany, for Berlin | and other large cities, as well as [ provincial cities and towns, are j indulging deeply in the dancing , craze.
