To Stop a Cough In a
Hurry.

OF all the best things" to do for
q cough, the following home made
remedy will be found by far the
most effective. The sooner 1T is
taken, of course, the better: but
even deep seated coughs usually
yield readily after few doses.
Here is the recipe:
Granulated Sugar Syrup. ..13M OF.

cents worthy in q clean pint bot
tie, and I'LL up with Graduated
Sugar syrup. made as follows:
Take a pint Of Granulated Sugar.
add y cup water, heat and let boil
Just moment Take a teaspoon
full every one, two or three hours,
as required.
Simple as II Is, there Is positive
" nothing better for the purpose.
The recipe makes a full pint,
|. enough TO last the whole family a
long time. Kept welt corked. ut
never spoils. The taste is so pleas
ant that children take It readily
without the usual struggle.
Pinex, as you probably know, is
the most valuable concentrated
compound of Norway White Pine
EXTRACT. 1t is rich in guaiacol and
other elements which have made
the pine woods Of Norway famous
In the cure Of consumption. Your
druggist has 1t, or If out of it, will
gladly get it for you on request.
In making this recipe avoid the
many weaker pine oil and pine tar
preparations; use the real Pinex

the best syrup.

String was the musical gem OF the
evening.
The glee club sings well, and the
voices Of it's members blended nicely.
The first number Land Sighting" by
Grieg, was especially good and per-
haps the best.
The quartet, taken from the glee

and might better have been omitted.
The program closed with a number of
college songs by the glee club in which
| humorous references were made OF
students from this city who attend
Cornell, and who were in the audience.

Noel; betrayed a considerable
part of the expenses of his edu-

istration, by summer work at the
A. & M. College, and the attempt
to discredlt the veracity and
character of A. & M. students on

would not favor having him, or
any other employe of any State
Institution, remain in his place if
he used lidnor to occasional ex-
cess, or ever to excess when on
duty. My position on this ques.
ton has been uniform. Early in
this year, DR.. Noel, by an acci-
dental pistol shot, was very SER
iously wounded, at first thought
to be fatal. When his pulse was
almost gone, and the attending
physician thought him to be
rapidly sinking, prescribed for
him alcoholic stimulation, which
DIR. Noel declined to take even
though 1t might be means of the
saving his life.
All the faculty and employees
of the A. & M. College are named

board of trustees. But three OF
the trustees. thirteen besides
myself, received appointment
from me, one of those being a
reappolntment, making but two
changes during my administra-
ton. It's minutes show took no
