The Best Cough Syrup Is
Easily Made at Home.

You can make a full pint of
cough syrup in five minutes by
this recipe-enough to last a
family long time-at a cost of
only "a cents. 1t is not only
cheaper, but better, than the
cough medicines you buy. Its
taste is decentralization like
it. 1t stops obstinate coughs in
hurry, and is splendid for
other throat troubles.
GRADUATED sugar syrup 1874 OF.
P1nex -............... 219 OF.
Put 2 II ounces of Pinex in a
pint bottle and fill up with
granulated sugar syrup made
as follows: take a pint of gran
ulated sugar, add one-half pint
Of warm water and stir about
two minutes. Take a teaspoon
hours.
This recipe will not work
with any of the weaker pine
preparations. Use the real Pr
mex itself, which is the most
valuable concentrated COM
pound of Norway white pine ex-
tract. All druggists have it, or
can get it easily on request.
Strained honey can be used
instead of the syrup. and
makes very fine honey and
pine tar cough syrup.

Md, and others. He is a brother Of
Mrs. c. F. Potter. Ills Rock Island

Of Mordecai Price, and is said to in
clude a large part Of the city of Balti
more. There are about 90 heirs.
Wellington H. Smith of Cleveland,

heirs in the case and is said to have
unearthed a great part of the evidence.
The claim is based on an old lease,

torney Smith recently in an old Vir-
ginia homestead. The lease had been
missing for over 40 years.

ceryman of Fourth and Brown streets,
yesterday enlightened his immediate
family of the fact that he had awaken
ed in Kansas City. Mo, where he is
now staying at a private boarding
house at 1915 West Fourth street.
Where he had been and what had
transpired since he was first missed
from this city last Tuesday afternoon
at 2 O'Clock was not conveyed in his
letter which merely told of his pres
ence in Kansas City. Shortly before
noon Gus Eckmann, a son Of the erst-
while missing grocer, left for Kansas
City and will bring his father home
on the first returning train. The
search for Mr.. Eckmann had assumed
almost a nation wide aspect and the
police in every city within a radius
of hundreds of miles were on the out
look for him. AT the time he left
Davenport Mr.. Eckmann had on his
person between 5000 and $500 which
he had just withdrawn from a local
bank with which to pay some debts.
The lapse of memory which apparent
~ overcame him took him to Kansas
City, where he wandered around for
several days before he overcame the
spell which had been cast over MIN.

ment has been filed with the city clerk
in which William Dobler claims dam
ages from the city. Mr. Dobler states

walk at Seventh and Iowa streets. He

the sidewalk, making it a glare of ice
and dangerous to pedestrians. Dobler
claims that in the fall he dislocated
an elbow and otherwise injured him
self. He claims the city was negligent
in not keeping the sidewalk in a passa-
bic condition. and asks damages to the
extent of $1,000.

NTH DISTRICT.

Seventeenth District, Dec. 14.-One
of the most enjoyable events of this
season was the reception given by Mr..
and Mrs. G. W. Virgins Tuesday even
ing for Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Virgins,
whose marriage occurred at the
brides home in Ellayille Sunday. The
decorations in both parlors and in the
dining room were lovely palms and
ferns. A delightful menu of two
courses was served by Misses Emma
and Ehie Virgins. In the center Of
the table was large cake beautifully
embossed with two hearts joined to-
gether. In the center of each heart
was the name of the bride and groom.
The bride was handsomely gowned
in red silk, trimmed in persian
bands, which was very becoming to
her brunette beauty.
Miss Emma Virgins wore a white
lingerie dress, lace trimmed. Miss
Ella Virgins had on a pink batiste,
which was very becoming.
Miss Matte Suggs wore "a tan
broadcloth and Miss Mertie Suggs
wore gray silk, which was lovely.
Those coming from a distance were
Misses Matte and Mertie Suggs, of
Albany; Mr.. NJ P. Jones, of Americas;
Misses VERNE and Mary Virgins and
Mr.. Charlie Virgins, of Brentwood; MIR.
and Mrs. j. c. Tedder, of Dawson.
