OPEN LETTER
By Prof. Thomas, to the Good People Of
McCOnnellsburg and Vicinity.


McConnellsburg and Vicinity.
The teachers and directors of
the McConnellsburg schools are
putting forth an effort to make
the new auditorium of the public
school building more attractive
by furnishing it with needed ma.
terlal. The Choral Society Is kind
ly giving much needed help along
this line.
Owing to the lnclemency of the
weather last Saturday evening,
the Society realized scarcely half
the sum of money expected;
hence, they intend to repeat it
Friday evening, December 3lst.
And now, to the people OF McCon
nellsburg and vicinity, l desire
to say that know from the hber
al patronage you have gwen us IN
the past, that you are interested
in having the new auditorium bet
ter furnished in order that you
may have a comfortable place IN
which to attend Entertainments.
| beg you come out to the enter
talnment on Friday evening, Dec.
31st, although you may have been
at the entertainment on Satur-
day evenlng), and encourage the
Choral Society IN it's effort put
forth IN behalf of the school chill
dren of McConnells burg and vi
cinlty, Come! give the Society
the encouragement it deserves,
and l feel that we may depend
upon it's mem bers for much need
ed help IN the future. If there
should be an excess of money
above what pays for the piano,
the excess will be used toward
the purchase of nice new cur
tain for the stage.
The Thallan Club has assented
to give us play in the near flu
ture; but first we must have a
curtain for the stage. We think
that we can purchase nice as
bestos chrtain for 500. Patron
ize US literally, and soon you will
see a nice curtain ready for oper.
alton IN the new auditorium.
Come I! make small sacrifice
Qf sacrifice be necessary and by
your presence and financial aid
encourage both Choral Society
and teachers to undertake other
things that are necessary to make
the new auditorium attractive.

Line agent more than an hour be-
fore we landed, which was as
good as If l had some one to meet
me. So many passengers plans
were upset because of our com.
ing two days early. Cooks man

we had our customs papers and

November 23.--Yesterday was
a busy day buying the things we
need which cannot be gotten up

saw Miss McCunn off to Jhansi
from the Victoria Leminus and
met lot of the people who came
out on the Massiha again. In
the evening an acquaintance-a
big English mill owner-took
MISS Dixon, another mlsslonrry,
aud me out IN his motor to see
Bombay by moonlight. 1t was
wond derful-just like a fairy scene
or a tale from the Arabian
Nights. The drive along the sea
front over hard smooth boule-
wards, with the waves dashlng
against the sea wall on one side,
and double rows of palms on the
other, was lovely. We sped up
Malabar Hill past the Parsi Pal
aces and gardens, from which
came whiffs of cool Jassamlne-
scented air, while BON bay gilt
tered and twinkled below.
Before we leave this evening
for sup country" l am invited to
take tea with Major and Mrs.
Kirby, at the Yacht Club, of
which you have picture. They
came out on the Massiha and sat
at our table. Had 1t not been for

How t, Make Better Cough
Syrup Than You Can Buy

"A full pint of cough syrup
enough to last a family a long
time be made by the recipe
given below in five minutes, for
only 81 cents. Simple as 1t is,
there Is nothing better at any
price. 1t usually stops a deep
seated cough in twenty-four
hours, and is a splendid remedy
J for whooping cough, colds,
hoarseness, bronchitis, etc.
Take q pint of granulated sug-
ar, add one half pint warm water
and stir about two minutes. Put
21a OF. Pinex in a pint bottle and
all up with syrup. Take a tea
spoonful every one, two or three
hours. 1t keeps perfectly and the
taste Is pleasing.
The chemical elements of pine
which are very healing to mem
branes, are obtained in high pro-
portion in Pinex. the most valu-
able concentrated compound of
Norway White Pine Extract.
None of the weaker pine prepar-
ations will work with this recipe.
Your druggist has Pinex or can
easily get it for you.
) Strained honey can be used in
stead of the syrup and makes a
very fine honey and pine tar
cough syrup.

The Beautiful Hair
Of English Women
fannie BLY, in N. Y. Graphic. ]

lAunle bly III N. 7. OrapnlC.J
The long, abundant and glossy
tresses of English women are not due
to hair tonics and heroic shampooing.
There is general belief over there
that the less water put on the hair,
the better it is; they say wetting stakes
the life out" and leaves the hair dull,
brittle and colorless.
English women with hair rich in coll
or, clean and wholesome-and plenty
OF it--have told me they attribute 1t
to dry shampooing two or three times
a week. They mix four ounces Of
therox with four ounces of orris root
and sprinkle a tablespoonful of this
mixture on the head; then brush the
powder thoroughly thru the hair. They
thus also avoid the danger OF catching
cold and the discomfort that accom-
panies washing, rinsing and drying the
hair.
This treatment keeps the hair light
fluffy and lustrous, and is the only
thing know that will actually produce
tho growth-o OF hair.
