Sounded That WAY.

Miss Brown was giving an elaborate
description Of a blacksmith prepara'
tory to teaching Longfellow's poem to
her pupils:
"Now, children. we are going to learn
a poem today about some one who
works very hard. He is very large and
has great arms that can lift such
heavy things His face is blackened
with SCOT that comes from his great
blazing fires. And he wears a dirty
black apron. and be has a Gre that
glows. oh, so red. and whenever h'
makes anything he puts It into his fir'
and then pounds II with a great biz
hammer. which makes the loudes
changing noise and makes the sparks

Where did man get his idea for car

carries them In bis mouth; adzes from

A charming novelty is long sash OF
liberty satin that fell some distance
beyond the gown Of the wearer and
formed a sort Of little train. We shall
probably see many Of these sashes this

Sometimes. however. the streamer will

quite as picturesque and graceful,

soft satin is used. On the hat it starts

H0LO to Make

A Family Supply, Saving 81 and
Fully Guaranteed.

A full pint of cough syrup-as much
as you could buy for $2:50-can easily
be made at home. You will find nothing
that takes hold of an obstinate cough
more quickly, usually ending it inside Of
"a hours. Excellent, too, for Group,
whooping cough, sore lungs, asthma,
hoarseness and other throat troubles
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
- pint of warm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 212 ounces of Pinex fifty
cents worthy in a pint bottle, then add
the Sugar Syrup. 1t keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
This is Just laxative enough to help
cure a cough. Also stimulates the appe-
tite, which is usually upset by a cough.
The taste is pleasant.
The effect of pine and sugar syrup on
the inhamed membranes is well known.
Pinex is the most valuable concentrated
compound of Norway white pine extract,
rich in guaiacol and all the natural
healing pine elements. Other prepara-
tions viii not work in this formula.
The Pinex and Sugar Syrup recipe Is
now used by thousands of housewives
throughout the United States and Cam
ada The plan has been initiated, but
the old successful formula has never
been equaled-
