Shake well. Take one to two teaspoonfuls after each meal and at bed time. Smaller doses for children ac- cording to age" This is said to be the quickest cough and cold cure known to the medical profession. Be sure to get only the genuine Globe Pine Compound Concentrated Pine). Each half ounce bottle comes in tin screw-top sealed case. If your druggist is out of stock he will quickly get it from his whole- sale house. Don't fool with uncertain mixtures. It is risky.

SWEDEN PLANNING
 SPORTING EVENT
Annual Festival for 1913 Will Be on Grander
 Scale Than Ever

Stockholm. Sweden, November S0.-- Since 1891 Sweden every fourth year has had a great festival of winter sports in the first and second weeks of February, International championships in speed skating and figure skating, skiing competitions, yacht sailing on ice and horse racing on the snow are prominent features. Many sportsmen and vacation seekers have been at- tracted from England and other coun- tries.
 The sports of 1913, which will be held from the seventh to the sixteenth of February, will surpass former meetings in interest. Among the novel compe- titions being arranged are the hand-in- hand skating championship for lady and gentleman, the International fig ure skating championship for ladies, both competitions authorized by the h. ternational Skating union, as well as speed skating for special prizes Trot- ting races on lake near Stockholm, and skiing competitions in speed and Jumping, each will occupy three days. A special effort to induce Americans to attend will be made by the directors of the sports.
 The preparations of Sweden for the Olympic games in Berlin in 1916 are already well organized, and an exten- sve canvass of the nation for funds is in progress All sections and classes Of the country are responding liberally. Within the present year it is expected the fund will reach s40,000 or S50.000
 Son after the Olympic meeting at Stockholm an Olympic society was formed, which has grown into large organization with eighty branches.
 Soon after the Olympic meeting at birth of Gustavus Adophus two hum dred musical entertainments were giv- ell by musical societies in the principal towns of Sweden for the benefit of the Olympic fund With the Swedes the Olympic sports have become a national institution, and 1t is proposed that the interest created by the uation's success at the capital this year shall be main- tained.

Wanted--A good home for one reg
ment of infantry and three compa-
1ies of coast artillery. Best of refer
ences. Apply. Department of Hawaii
There's the present military situa-
ion in nutshell. Western Division
orders directing the above organiZa-
ions to sail for Honolulu" were re-
.eiyed at army headquarters this
morning, but not a word is said as to
where the troops are to go on arriv-
II. They are TO report to the COM
handing general" but he happens to
,e in Washington, ID. c., at the pres
mt time, and even if here has no au-
hoPity to assign troops to permanent
station in the department. Without
higher authority General Macomb can
10 more send the Twenty-fifth infana
ry the 20-odd miles to Schofield Bar
'acks than he could send them to
Iuam or Panama.
The adjutant general has as yet re-
,eived no information as to station for
he new troops, and until this comes
he soldiers will be homeless wander
ers. When they disembark from the
transport their official journey will be
1t an end, and they might as we'll go
fishing from the docks.
Again the incoming troops are
ordered to bring the full allowance
of tentage and camp equipage, as the
regiment will be required to go into
camp for some time Now that term
full allowance is another sticker
The usual allowance of tentage in the
field would put two lieutenants in one
tent, and give. single tent to
captain But surely ii is not intended
to put men under canvas for a year
or more in such cramped quarters as
this. The First Infantry has, about
four tents to lieuteuaIr, AMI it is
figured that the government will try
to do as well by the newcomers
The three coast artillery companies,
and the third battalion of the Twenty
fifth Infantry will sail on the Sheri,
dan, while headquarters OF the
rwenty.fifth, the remaining two bat
talions and the Fourth Cavalry, will
come on the Logan.

DEMOCRATS AFTER HIM
r. H. Trent Now
CriticiSes His
Policy

Charges made by Richard H. Treni
that Fire Chief Thurston has played
politics sin his department and inti-
inationss that he has used his power
as chief to make firemen rent from
him cottages nea< The various fire
siationx. were vigorously and indig,
nanily denied by Chief Thurston this
morning
Attempts made to get Thurston's S

mayor and the supervisors seem to
have been renewed recently, and to.
Gay there were several stories OF
deals and compromises by which
Thuiston viii be put out or his de
pertinent used for Democratic pa /.
fOnage The supervisors soon to TAX,
office say today that there is little
likelihood that Thurston viii be re
appoinled by the mayor.
-Why don't the papers tell the whole
stcry about the fire department in po-
litics?v questioned r. H. Trent, in an
Interview this morning.
A very prominent Republican came
N me today to ask that ! use whats
ever influence | might have wit
Mayor Fern TO get him to reappoil
Chief Thurston. He thought it Moul
be ia shame for the Mayor to injec,
politics into the fire department" con
tIrued Mr.. Trent.
Il asked him II he had not heard
TINT Mr. Thurston had been using his
position to do politics; and that a..
though he had been twice appointed to
his position ~ n ayof Fern, re did his
iesel best to beat Fern in the last elec.
fion. II is said that ThGrston not only
went out Of his way to canvas
sgainst Fern, but that he made ever
rsember OF his department wear Park
err badges on election day.
Another thing that is being urgei
afainst Thurston is that he makes
practice OF acquiring property contit
nous to the fire stations and LIN
cottages TO rent to the employees c
the department Some people fear tina
the chief might be in danger of bein
influenced In his treatment of his men
ty the fact that they are, or are MOI
contributing materially to his monthly

There is a lot of talk about T.
efficiency or the dre department, an
ia a recent published interview q
n ember of the board of fire -underwri
ers intinnated that if Mr.. Thurston
were not reappointed rates might
