 Mix one pint of granulated sugar with la pint of warm water, and stir for minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex tnfty eents' worth in pint bottle; then add the Sugar Syrup. It has a pleasant taste and lasts a family a long time. Take 8 teaspoonful every one, two or three hours.
 You can feel this take hold of a cough in q way that means business. Has a good tonic effect, braces up the appetite, and is slightly laxative, too, which is helpful. A handy remedy for hoarse- ness, croup, bronchitis, asthma and all throat and lung troubles.
