P,PuLAa RECIPE
This Home Made Cough Syrup
Stops Coughs Quickly.
a}~A~K ~Ns~Nf~K~9r~al%A~a~i


Make a plain syrup by taking one
pint of Granulated Sugar, add one-half
pint of warm water and stir for two
minutes. Put two and one-half ounces
of pure Pinex in a pint bottle and fill
1T up with the Granulated Sugar Syrup.
Take teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours. Keep we'll corked and it
will never spoil
The effectiveness of this simple
homemade article is surprising. 1t
usually stops a deep-seated cough in
twenty-four hours. 1t is also excellent
for colds, whooping coughs, pains in
the chest. bronchial troubles and SINH
lar ailments.
Use the real Pinex in making 1t,
however. 1t is the most valuable con-
centrated compound of Norway White
Pine Extract, and it is far superior to
the numerous pine oil and pine tar
preparations. IF your druggist does not
have it, he can get it for you without
trouble.
The proportion above suggested
makes full pint of the best cold and
cough remedy. The taste is SO pleasant
that children take lit willingly The
total cost is about "a cents.
Strained honey can be used instead
Of the syrup, and makes a very fine
honey and pine tar cough syrup.

Deafness Can Nat Be Cured

by local applications, as they can not
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is intiamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and when
it is entirely closed, deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition. hearing will be
destroyed forever; ninS cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh. which is
nothing but an inharned condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that can not be cured by Halls
TCatarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

MILK 10 CENTS PER.
And Waterloo Supply is Not Of Par
ticularly Hiqh Grade. Either.

Waterloo. Dec 16.--Who wouldn't be
a dairyman if he could sell his milk
at So per hundred? This is what it
means when the consumer is paying
10 cents per quart for the 1uid which
is also far from being the best grade
in many cases. Citizens who have
been purchasing from the local milk
men were informed the forepart of the
week by one of the dealers that the
price was to be advanced from to
10 cents on the 18th of December, but
For some reason the raise did not ma
terialize. tho it was limited that it was
soon to come. Consumers feel that they
are at present paying price that
ought to give to the dairy and milk
men good living profit.

TO WEAR WARMER GARMENTS

Last fall and winter the garments

was worn without a petticoat in most
cases, and women of fashion actually

shown in furs. They are pretty and
include many new and original pat

very large ones both figure in the
showing. A dealer says that black
furs will undoubtedly be the early

1t is a severe strain on the imagination to at
tempt to bridge over the gap between the mean
ing Of an airship crossing the Mississippi river
ut st. Louis this year and what the ancient keel
boats Of 1909 meant, as they landed at the foot
Of Walnut street. where the town was founded in
1854 by the pioneers who had padded and cor
del:eI their bateaux painfully up the river from
NeH Orleans under Laclede as he advanced in
the bold attempt to control the fur trade Of half
a continent with his handful of men.
The keelboat then was no more out of date
than the airship is now. 1t was the best modern
boat in 1859 which could be equipped by the CAPT.
tai of st. Louis, Of New Orleans of Philadel-
phia. Because OF it Philadelphia and St Louis
commanded the east and west movement Of bust
ness as that north and south was commanded BY
New Orleans and st. Louis, soon as their first
fleets OF keelbOats were regularly organized. 1t
helped to make great history, even if It did have

on the bank.
This distance in point of change in the way
things are done is almost impossible for the
