Quick Way to End
Why let a dangerous cough hang on
when you can, through a simple treat-
4 ment, get speedy relief and often break
it up completely in 24 hours?
This treatment Is based on the fa
mous Dr. King’s New Discovery for
Coughs. You take just one teaspoon
ful and hold itin your throat for 15 or
20 seconds before swallowing it. It has
a double action. It not.only soothes
and heals irritation, but also removes
the. phlegm and congestion which are
t real cause of the coughing. So the
% cough quickly disappears.
King’s New Discovery is for
c , chest colds, bronchitis, spas-
r croup, eta Fine for children,
t . -• harmful drugs. Very economy
t the dose is only one teaspoon-

The scientists that heard from the
learned Chicago astronomer Moulton
about the earth’s probable age, one
million billion years, practically all of
it still ahead of us, heard also about
the size of our corner of space, our
“galaxy” in which the sun is as a
gsain of sand.
It is shaped like a watch, its dimen
sions are thirty thousand light years
through from front to back, two hun
dred million light years through the
wide way, across the fact of the
watch. To get the distance across our
galaxy multiply the number of sec
onds in two hundred thousand years
by one hundred and eighty-six thous
and miles, which will give you some
thing over a quintrillion of miles
written with one, followed by eigh
teen zeros, according to rapid pro
bably inaccurate figuring on the edge
of a newspaper.
Let your little boy do the sura.

But remember there are in that
galaxy of ours about one billion suns
many of them a million times as big
Which is a mUSion times
as big as our earth.
And the billion suns above about
like bees in a swarm. If two of them
come too close together, the planets
of both suns are instantly wiped out
of existence. That happens only
once in a million billion years, on the
average. But it might happen any
day, therefore it is well to always
be prepared with a clean slate.
