JOPLIN GLOBE, SUNDAY, MARCH 8, 1925. IS NEEDED FOR M. U. MEMORIAL Stone Work for Second Unit of Tower Will Be Suspended Un. leas Pledges Aro Paid.

Columbin, March of work on the carving of stone for the second unit of memorial tower, will be necensary unless there is an Immediate response from those who owe on their pledges to the state university memorial union and stadium fund, Bob HIll, alumni recorder of the university and assistant director of the fund, announced tonight. A crisis in the collection of pledges has arisen, Hill said. Not only' must the work on the stone of the second unit cease, he asserted, but no progress can be made toward financing or beginning construction work on the stadium, until the money due the fund has been sent in. Response Must Be Immediate, "There has never been a time in 1118 campaign when funds were 90 badly needed as now." HIll said. "To keep the stone carvers employed on tire memorial tower, there must be Immediato responses to the appeal sent out by the committee.

In order that A start can be made on the stadium, $50,000 in cash must be collected from those whose payments are overdue." In stressing the necessity for an immediate responso by subscribers, Hill explained that a group of Swiss stone cutters have been at work all winter on the stone for the first unit of the tower and that enough stone tor this unit will have been cut by April 1. Work on the tower, itself, he said, had progressed to a line, referred to AR "B-B." or several feet above the clock, approximately three-fifths of the tower's height. Explaining that the work on this unit of the tower had been delayed all last summer and fall because of the impossibility of obtaining the employment of capable stone cutters, HIll asserted that "it would be a severe blow to the progress of construction after the first unit of the tower is completed to allow the atone carvers to become separated, with the consequent probability 'of turther delay."

Brumfield, Manufacturer And Owner of Brumfield's Asthma And Cough Remedy Visits Wholesale Druf House in Joplin Management of Pennington Drug Company Highly Elated Over Success and Sale of His Remedy; Traveling Salesmen Report Druggists Stocking Heavily Because of Consumer Demand; Mr. Brumfield Relates Interesting History of Early Inception, of the Remedy; Made Wonderful Record in Miami-Picher Mining District. Mr. Brumfield, manufacturer and owner of Brumfield's Asthma and Cough Remedy, called on his distributors in Joplin, The Wholesale Drug Company, this week.

He found the management and employes alike highly elated over the sale and success of his remedy. The traveling salesmen of the above company report druggists stocking the remedy on insistent con-: sumer demand from their customers. Mr. Brumfield related some interesting history of the first inception and subsequent growth of his Asthma and Cough Remedy. As will be seen, he takes but a modest share of the credit for the success of the remedy.

Many things conspired together over a long period of years to shape form and bring it together and fate itself seemed to have decreed that it should live and endure. Ho maid it was nearly 30 years ago that the wife of one of his customers was suffering with chronic lung trouble, coughing herself to death 88 they thought. Her trouble progressed in spite of anything they could do until she was actually on the lift. She Was BO weak thai when she would lie down she could not get up. Her husband would help her to her feet and, remarkable but true, she could then go about and do considerable needed housework.

Finally they made a visit from home and when ready to return an old country practitioner ol saddle-bag times gave them a receipt to have filled at their home drug store. Recovery Soon Followed. They brought the receipt and bad it filled from time to time at Mr. Brumfield's drug store. It was drops in milk.

Her recovery soon followed and the husband having such faith in the medicine often would bring miners and others who appeared to him to have a pallor and cough into the drug store and ask that the old receipt be gotten out and filled for them, many times offering to pay for it himself. Mr. Brumfleld modified the receipt from time to time. Honey replaced the unstable product milk and thus the working formula was finally completed and perfected. But the greatest part of its merit and wide range of its medical utility was discovered by mere accident by those who used it.

Those who had severe cough would call for it as cough remedy, asthmatics as an asthma remedy, hence the name asthma and cough remedy. Users of the remedy really educated Mr. Brumfield as to its general family use. Mothers came with wonderful stories as to how they managed the annoying whooping cough among their children with it, after everything else had failed. Many In like manner told of its efficiency in asthma, flu cough, sore throat, croup, tonsilitis, bronchitis, cigarette Bore throat, lead poisoning, short breath, and its wonderul intestinal antiseptic properties, all this and more Was actually found out by userg of the remedy.

Wonderful Results. Parties visiting nationally known sanitariums seeking relief for some of these ailments and getting none, finally resorted to the use of the remedy, getting wonderful results and willingly gave Mr. Brumfield their testimony. But what of the frail wife, the husband, and the old prae: titioner? You shall knowread on. Based upon his observations of the working of his remedy, Mr.

Brumfeld honestly believes that workers In smelters garment factories, zine and lead mines or, coal mines, shops or wherever there is dust or dirtladen air, always should keep on hand a large sized bottle of the remedy and occasionally use it to clear the lungs, throat and intestinal, tract. of contamination that may lead to chronic trouble. The remedy is different from most other cough medicines in that it does not dry up a cough but loosens it. When taken, the warmth of the mouth and throat vaporize its medicinal properties and are breathed into the air. passages and lungs while its septic healing properties cone in direct contact with the whole intestinal tract.

Improvement: is noticed at onec as to breath-' ing and coughing. The remedy has great concentrated food value and aged people on taking it, experience added strength at once. But do not walt until you are on the lift before. commencing. First 'Sold in Oklahoma.

Brumfield's Asthma and Cough Remedy was first advertised in a modest way and put on sale in drug stores in the Miami-Picher Mining Field in the fall of 1923, and a year later in Joplin and closely surrounding territory. In the first mentioned district it now 10 selling more in money amount than all other remedies of its nature combined and in Joplin field more than any one. Alt of this in so short a time spells great merit for it. And now as to the frail wife -she is living in this day, reaching old age gracefully and going strong--the husband has gone to his reward--and cedar trees mark the resting place of. the old practitioner but the remedy lives -(Advertisement), Young Men's Suits pants styles, single and.
