PiQuant pannier models, models

How to Have the Best Cough
Syrup and Save ~, By
Making 1t at Home.

Cough medicines, as q rule, contain a
large quantity of plain syrup. If you
take one pint of graduated sugar, edd
"a pint OF warm water and stir about
2 minutes, you have as good syrup as
money could buy.
If you will then put 2h ounces OF
Pinex $50 cents WORTH in a pint bottle,
and fill it up with the Sugar Syrup, you
will have as much cough syrup as you
could buy ready made for $3.50. 1t
keeps perfectly.
And you will find it the best cough
syrup yop ever ussed-.even in whooping
cough. You can feel it take hold-usu-
ally stops the most severe cough in "a
hours. 1t is just laxative enough, has a
good tonic effect, and taste is pleasant.
Take a t~easpoonful every one, two or
three hours.
1t is q splendid remedy, too, for
whooping cough, Group, hoarseness, asth-
ma, chest pains, etc.
Pinex is the most valuable eoncentra-
ted compound Of Norway white pine ex-
tract, rich in guaiacol and all the heal
ing pine elements. No other prepare
ton will work in this formula.
This recipe for making cough remedy
with Pinex and Sugar Syrup is now
used and priced in thousands of homes
in the United States and Canada. The
plan has often been initiated but never
successfully.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or will
get it for you. If not, send to The
Pinex Co, Fl. Wayne, Ind.

Little children are always charming
dressed In just such frocks as this one
The box plaits give the long, slender lines.
For the dressy frock, banding can be ap-
piled after the manner illustrated and for
the plain frock, 1t can be omitted. The
making really means very little labor and
the result Is entirely satisfactory. The
dress is made In just three pieces, Is closed
at the back for the entire length and has
one-piece sleeves showing just a little
~fullness at the shoulders, Almost every
childish material Is appropriate, for the
dress can be made from white lawn with
lace and embroidery to be very dainty,
or it can be made of Bingham without
trimming to be very sturdy and prac-
teal, while for intermediate use, plain
blue Bingham with bands Of white en-
broidery would be pretty. In this case,
there are slashes cut under the plaits
through which the sash Is passed and the
treatment Is very pretty for the dressy
frock, but the dress is quite complete with
out the sash.
For the 4 year size, the dress will require
yards Of material AZ, ~ yards SO or a.
inches wide with 50 yards of banding.
The pattern of the dress 1884 Is cut In
sizes for children of q, and s years OF age.

WIDOWS TROUBLES ARE OVER
How q Long Island Woman Secured
"Heip" to Work Her Farm
Team Work Now.

st. James, l.. I.-Everybody in st.
rich il glad her troubles are over and
that she has a husband to help work
her Bix-acre farm.
After the death OF her husband 10
months ago she found her farm too
much to till with her W hands. So
when she saw an advertisement In a
newspaper, inserted by Martin Hall
Of New York, asking for a wife. she
fastened to reply. Hall said he was
expecting a fortune of $4,000 from
Germany and would settle 425,0o0 Of
1t upon the woman he married.
The widow and Hall met. Hall was
siXty-two and the widow f~orty-elght.
They agreed to marry and fixed last
December 10 as the date. But Hall
did not appear. In reply to a letter
from him a few weeks later, asking
II he could call, she said yes. The up
shot of the interview was that Hall
went to work on the farm.
He quit wedding and hoeing a month
ago and, leaving his clothes, went to
New York. This was too much for
the widow and she tried to sell the
farm. Among the men to look at 1t
was jacob Brig, an insurance inspeo-
tor Of Hoboken, N. J. The widow
showed him about the place and then
asked hopefully:
do you want to buy the farm7"
How large is it?" asked Brig.
The widow told him 1t was six
acres.
That's too large for me-" said
Brig. Il haven't any wife to make
life hero endurable and to help with
the work"
The widow cast down her eyes. A
sudden light came into those OF the
insurance man.
Say. say" he exclaimed, you
aren't looking for = husband, are
your"
The widow blushed. Well. she didn't
just know II she would put 1t that
way, but-but-he might call tomor-
row and she would think about it.
Well, the insurance man did call
tomorrow" and the next day and the
next and the next to such good effect
that the widow and Brig were made
a team the other day In the st. James
Episcopal church to work the six-acre
farm each had found too large for
single harness. Today Hall returned
to st, James. He was told the news.
This shocked him Sc much he had to
go to a drug store and let the doc
tor" prescribe something.
After he got his clothes without 30
much as a glance from Mrs. Brig he
threatened to sue for breach Of prom
lse.

haps for sale in a bazaar, where, as
their cost is so trifling, they should
sell at a good profit. They can be
decorated and made to look pretty In
many ways, and one Of the simplest
methods Of ornamenting them Is to
cover them with enamel in some del
icate light tint and after it is dry,
paint flowers upon them.
The box from which u sketch was
drawn was treated in a different man
ner and was covered with thin pale
blue silk, turned over at the edges
and fastened just inside with mu-

was worked in silver thread upon the

was most pleasing and dainty.
The design is quite q simple one

broidered upon the material prior to

A FEW TIME SAVERS.

Any stove backing will stay on
longer and be free from dust If a few
drops of molasses are added to the
backing before using.
Teach the children to open beds
and windows wide before leaving
their rooms in the morning, and when
1t is time to make up the beds the
room will be well aired.
Kerosene is a magic cleaner. Wipe
out the boiler with a damp cloth
dipped In kerosene. The sink will be
kept free from grease and streaks If
wiped with 8 kerosene cloth.
When food has burned on In a ket-
tie or saucepan, remove at once and
add a little soda and cold water and
boil. It will then be easy to clean the
dish.
China should be packed in barrels
with the edge Of each plate and sau
Ger down. Excelsior or hay Is a good
medium for packing. Glass should
have an additional wrapping Of paper
or cotton batting.

Once a week put salsoda or some
equally good grease remover In the
sinks and drains and follow with q
good flushing of hot water.
When putting anything very hot into
glass dishes set the dish on a wet
cloth and the danger of cracking Is
lessened.
When busting a sick room, use bat
ting that has been moistened In a
steamer over hot water, then burn
the batting after using, and all danger
from germs will be avoided.
A bottle Of glue that has been
