and Badly Injured.
While crossing South Third avenue,
near the Railroad Y. M. c. A., early
this morning, Frank Hall, aged 4
years, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Elias Hall.
3o2 South Third avenue, was run
down and badly injured by an auto
mobile driven by Rev. ]. B. Jones, pas
tor of the Methodist church at Con-
rad. The boy was struck and knocked
down by the auto, which, however, did
not pass over him. His right collar
bone was broken, and his right Shout
der was badly confused. There was
also a bad confusion Inc abrasion over
the right knee cap.
Rev. Mr.. Jones vas hurrying to
catch a train, but eye witnesses say
that the machine was not going fast.

RESERVATIONS of fall flowers, and with
corn and autumn leaves all were en-
closed in the shell OF a pumpkin. The

What To Do For a Cough.


There are so many pet way of
treating coughs and colds, and so
many friends ready with all kinds
of advice, that, when a cough is
contracted, it often bothers a per-
son to remember what they did for
the last one. &
The following homemade REM
edy, kept in the home ready for
use, will overcome an obstinate
cough quicker than any expensive
medicine you could buy. Any
m can make it in a few mo-
ments-here is the recipe:
Granulated Sugar Syrup....13k OF.
Pinex 2k OF.
Put the Pinex in a clean pint
bottle and fill up the bottle with
the Syrup, made as follows: Take a
pint Of Granulated Sugar. add "
| cup O fwater, stir and let boil just
a moment. Take, a teaspoonful
every one, two or three hours, as
required. This recipe makes a full
pint of the cough syrup, and if
kept we'll corked, it will never
spoil. Tastes so good that children
will take it without kicking.
This simple cough syrup usually
stops a deep-seated cough in "a
hours. 1t is also excellent for
colds, whooping cough, bronchial
troubles, incipient consumption,
pains in the chest, etc.
Pinex, as you probably know. is
the most potent form of Norway
White Pine Compound. 1t is very
rich in guaiacol and other elements
which make the ozone of the pine
forests such splendid medicine for
throat and lung troubles. There
are many pine oil preparations, but
none of these compare with the
real Pinex itself. If your druggist
does not happen to have it. he will
be glad to get it for you. The az
ounces cost you fifty cents. The
syrup costs you about -four cents.
SO YOU can make a whole pint of
this effective Cough Syrup for
about ffty-four cents.
