The Best Cough Jyrup is Easily Made at Home Costs Little and Acts Quickly. Money Refunded If It Fails.

This recipe makes a pint Of cough syrup, and saves you about S2.00 as com pared with ordinary cough remedies. 1t stops obstinate eoughs-even whooping eough-in a hurry, and is splendid for sore lungs, asthma, croup, hoarseness and other throat troubles.
 Mix one pint of granulated sugar with T. pint of warm water, and stir for 7 minutes. Put 21, ounces of Pinex fifty cents worth in pint bottle, and add the Sugar Syrup. Take a teaspoonful every one, two or three hours. Tastes good.
 This takes right hold of a cough and pives almost instant relief. It stimu- lates the appetite, and is slightly laxa- tive-both excellent features.
 Pinex, as perhaps you know, is the most valuable concentrated compound of Norway white pine extract, rich in puaiacol and the other natural healing pine clements.
 No other preparation will do the work of Pinex in this recipe, although strained honey can be used instead of the sugar syrup, if desired.
 States and Canada now use this Pinex and Sugar Syrup recipe. This plan has often been initiated, but the old success ful formula has never been equaled. Its low cost and quick results have made 1t immensely popular.
 A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or money promptly refunded. goes with this recipe.s Your druggist has Pinex, or will get it for vou. If not, send to The Pinex O.. Ft. Wayne, Ind.

YOUNG DENIES
 TAKING TAXES
Also Makes Some Caustic Remarks Concerning His Critics and Says He Will Have More to Say When He is Out of Office

Charging an attempt on the part of Territorial Secretary George ! oung. to hasten the collection of fees from insurance companies doing business in Arizona. for that priv ilege during the ensuing year. that he might feather his own nest" by get ting fifty per cent of such taxes before he goes out of office. the Democrat last night published very sensational story. Both afternoon papers published an opinion on the subject. written by George Purdy Bullard, attorney general elect, which opinion was referred to as proof that the secretary was acting illegally in accepting such fees from the terri tory in view of the fact that the form of government is soon to change. It also advised insurance companies not to file statements un- til Arizona is admitted
 The law requires that annually ev- cry foreign insurance company shall make statement under oath of the sum total of the premium re- ceipts collected within this territory for the period lapsing since the filing of the previous statement by said company. The secretary of the ter ritory shall then levy q tax of two per cent upon the premium receipts which shall be paid by the company before a certificate of authority to do business in the territory during the current year can issue. This tax must be paid by March of each year According to a construction of the | law by the attorney general elect. if the tax is paid to Secretary Young under a law defining fees. one half of it shall go to the secretary as d perquisite. while if the tax is not paid until after the state is admitted it will all go to the state.
 The opinion further sets forth that if the payment of these taxes is thus made prematurely. when he as sumes office he will instruct the cor poration commission that in his opin- ion the statements should not have been made. the authority to transact business for 1912 should not have issued and he vii commence action for the delivery up of said authority for cancellation.
 In one or the afternoon papers Cor poration Commissioner elect F. A Jones was also quoted in a similar way, the inference in all cases be- ing that MT Young was attempting to gather little illegal graft for himself before he slipped out of of flee
 That MT Young might be given a square deal in the premises he was asked last night over the telephone if he cared to make any statement, and responded as follows:
 Tt is case of giving a calf enough rope 10 hang itself I am too busy to go down into the mire to fight that kind of people. I am willing to compare my record with that of the Attorney general elect. or any of my critics. In the first place none of the tax money referred to goes to the secretary.

SHORT COURSE
 FOR FRESH|ES
Stanford and California Youngsters Will Not Be Put Over Full Varsity Distance; New Rowin g Regulations

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Feb. :. A three course on the Oakland estuary for the varsity crews. and a two-mile course for the freshmen crews. will be the races which will be rowed by Stanfard and California this year. Heretofore the freshmen have rowed races as long as the varsity, bu' they will not be put to so hard a test as the more experienced oarsmen in the future. The races will be rowed on the morning of the intercollegiate track meet or the third game of the Intercollegiate baseball series. The time is not definitely fixed.
 Among tho new rules governing the coast is the regulation which pro- Vides that m case of swamping the race will have to be re-rowed. Two years ago Stanfard won the race through California swamping The swamping must be doue to outside ele- merts. however, and the referee will decide as to the cause. In case there ;s any accident to equipment with the first l5 strokes. such as the breaking e: a rigger or an oar, the race will be started over.
 Probably the most important action from the standpoint of the crews is the decision to have the races begin from what is known as a lock start. By this method of starting two boats are mOOred in the stream at right angles to the course. A man in each of these boats holds on to the rudder of one of the shells and only releases it at the starting gun. This insures absolute fairness in starting.
 IL is probable that the course will le surveyed this year tO insure an ac- curate rowing of the full specified dis tance.

SEM|-PROs GET
 MANY DOLLARS
Small Teams on Coast Pros per During the Winter; Playing in Closed Season is Profitable for the Pro fessionals

LOS ANGELES. Feb. Thousands of dollars business is done each year by the professional baseball clubs of Los Angeles and vicinity. Many persons are prone to pass over the so-called semi-pro leagues which have their existence during the off, season of the year. yet these teams. taken as a whole, collect a large sum of money from the fans.
 Leagues almost too numerous to mention have been started in South ern California this season. most of them by Carl Mueller. The most inn rortant one on the south this year, however. is the Ventura County league. This was composed of the Henry & Cornett Giants. Omard Ventura and Fillmore Thirteen games were played in this league by each team.
 More than 5000 for the season is reported to have been taken in at the gates. Some Of the games brought in as low as sll0. while when Ventura and Oxnard crossed the bat. the total receipts of the games was in the rcighbOrhOod of s300.
 A sum which will range About the same as the Ventura County league vas taken in by the Southern State league. Eight teams compose this league. and lS weeks of play was the schedule. IL is estimated that a sum slightly under $500 was taken in at the gates by the managers of these teams.

At times the cuts were low for the players, but nearly all the time they met their expenses And this is an Off-year for semi-pro or winter. baseball in the Southland. Pa fife Coast league owners practically have forbidden their players to par ucipate in games during the off season saying that they may get a cut in salary when they receive their con- tracts for the 1912 season. Another reason why winter ball has not seen many big leaguers in Los Angeles is that in order 10 play baseball in minor league territory permission must be received from the big club owners.
 It is estimated that the leagues which have been in operation in this vicinity have taken in nearly SIS, 900 since the closing of the Pacific Coast league season.

EAGLE EYE OF INDIAN

CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-Chief Bender ar1 their own wits are the only sig nol tipping bureau the worlds cham piOn Athletics evrr had. and that is no different from the system used by any other major league team, except that the chief has inherited the tra- GitiOnal eagle eyeSight of his ances- tors and there may be more wits work ii.g simultaneously on the Philadelphia bench than on other benches.
 That information was vouchei for. signed, sealed and delivered by Cy Morgan. of Connie Mack's slab staff. m the middle of a fanfest today.
 T know q lot of people believed we had some system of getting the catch CTS signs. but it is not true. None of our boys want the catcher's signs. But We SiO study the pitchers all the time. and whatever ideas We get about what is being pitched We get from them and not from the catcher's signs. We scared the Giants a lot in the worlds series by making use of our reputation. When one of the boys got Cn second h. would make a lot of bluff motions and the catcher would yell something Then Meyers would run in and confer with the pitcher and switch signals.
 Chief Bender has wonderful eyes. I've been on the street with him and 'l-ay off in the distance would see a small lettetred sign which I could not make anything out Of, and l have I.retty good eyes. I'd point it out to Render and he would read it easily.
 There are lots of little things al- most unnoticeable about the motions different pitchers use in their delivery. and most of those motions have a meaning. We sit there in a row on the bench and study the pitcher. and II we detect any difference in this mo- tior We watch to see what kind of a ball that motion means. Then We all krDW ii and remember it.
 We watch the infielders and some times get their signs, and We are all ways watching batsman or baserunner for hit and run signs. But every team is doing that IL is part of the game ana a big part, too"
