BEWARE THE
COUGH OR COLD
THAT HANGS ON
Chronic coughs and persistent colds
lead to serious lung trouble. You can
stdp them now with Creomultion, an
emulsified creosote that is pleasant to
take. Creomulsion is a new medical
discovery with twofold action; it soothes
and heals the inflamed membranes and
kills the germ.
Of all known drugs, creosote ia rec
ognized by the medical fraternity at the
greatest healing agency for the treat
ment of chronic coughs and colds and
other forms of throat and lung troubles.
Creomulsion contains, in addition to
creosote, other healing elements which
soothe and heal the inflamed mem
branes and stop the irritation and in
flammation, while the creosote goes on
to the stomach, is absorbed into the
blood, attacks the seat of the trouble
and destroys the germs that lead to
consumption. •
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac
tory in the treatment of chronic roughs
and colds, bronchial asthma, catarrhal
bronchitis and other forms of throat
and lung diseases, and is excellent for
building up the system after colds or
the flu. Money refunded if any cough
or cold, no matter of how long stand
ing, is not relieved after taking accord
ing to directions. Ask your druggist'

Spears Invents
New Stvle Pants
w
for Football Men
\ rrsalilo \\ est \ irginia Coarh
Believes He Has Improved
Method of Padding
Knees.
Morgantown, V". Ya., March 11.—
"Pop” Spears, veteran football coach,
who crowded Into the limelight some
years ago and has remained there
ever since by turning out gridiron
teams at West Virginia university
comparable with the best in the coun
try, is today In the same class with
Thomas Edison, Marconi and the
Wright brothers.
That Is, Spears lias entered the
ranks of Inventors by designing a
radically new style of football pants,
declared by many to suit ideally the
needs of the gridiron performer.
"Pop" is quitp an accomplished
young man, and his advent into the
exclusive ranks of inventors merely
adds anotlirr mark to his string of
achievements. Although he is famed
for his knowledge of football and his
uncanny ability to weld a lot of raw
recruits into a formidable gridiron
machine that during the season be
comes widely heralded as "the strong
mountaineer eleven," Spears by no
means is dependent on his com king
prowess for his meals and lodging.
Spears is a physician, and, accord
ing to his friends, a mighty good one.
He is also a surgeon and can ampu
tate a limb nr carve the human body
with the ease and dexterity of n
hutcher skilled in slicing off 15*4
ounces of meat when a pound is
called for.
"Pop” alsit can fill prescription*
with unerring accuracy and owns a
large and flourishing drug store.
And when it conies down to keen,
cold, practical, sound business judg
ment, Spears is "there" with the alert
judgment of one of Ills quarterbacks
befuddling the enemy on the gridiron
by raucously barking signals with
the dreaded “Spears’ shift" appended
in a menacing tone.
IJke all ambitious folk, Spears sel
dom is satisfied, and lie is particular
ly difficult to please in the way of
fcothall equipment. Recently lie made

Here's what one enthusiast writes:
Chicago, 111., 112 24
A year ago I was almost bald. I now have a nice growth of hair due
to constant use of Vsn Ess. After trying everything else, without suc
cess, I purchased a bottle of Van Ess at Buck 8s Rayner's.
It gives me great pleasure to inform my friends that Van Ess has
been the cause of restoring my hair. I believe that anyone who uses
Van Ess as religiously as I have will be benefited.
People with scalp trouble should make Van Ess a daily habit because
it keeps the scalp clean, removes dandruff and makes the head feel glad.

of his star wrestlers somewhat
incapacitated at present, Hugo
Otopailk, Iowa State wrestling coach,
is anything but optimistic over the
outcome of the Missouri valley
wrestling meet at Lincoln Friday and
• Saturday.
Prunty, captain, and one of the
best 158-pound wrestlers Iowa State
has ever known, was released from

fined there since Sunday. Infection
in his knees is the chief trouble and,
according to Otnpalik, it is doubtful
whether lie will be able to wrestle
by Friday, (irooms, 145-pounder, is
kept front the mat hy a “cauli
flower” car that lias grown steadily
worse during Hie last week. With
the exception of these two men the
team is in excellent shape.
Boyvey will enter the 115-pound
class. Boyvey has won every dual
meet for the last two years and took
third In the valley meet last season.
Kurtz, who will enter the 125-pound
event, has won three bouts and lost
one this year. He lost to Minnesota
by a decision last Saturday. He was
also second In the western intercol
leglate meet last year.
Meyers will wrestle in the 135
pound class, lie has won four
meets and lost one this year. Killier
(.rooms or Woodhull will enter the
115 pound weight. Karli has won
four meets this year, but two of
Grooms' victories were won in the
158-pound class. Captain Trunty
will wrestle at 158 pounds it he is
in condition, lie lias won four dual
meets this season and holds the
western intercollegiate title in this
WQifiht, which he won last year.
I’illard will he the 175-pound entry,
lie won (lie championship of the val
ley in this weight last year. Ills
record for this season is four wins.
Lawrence, a new man on the team,
will he tlie heavyweight entry. He

competition to come from the Okla

eral Pig Ten teams this year and havs
