Another change was to have a train

lis dawn in the sky of the world
IT'S dawn in the sky of my heart,
And earth is the bud of rose
Whose petals trembling apart;
So come to your door in the dawn
And breathe you my life in a word
You would smile, you would lean from your win
dow, my queen,
IF you heard-if you heard.
The air is all throbbing with fire,
And am pulse of the flame,
All breathless the universe beats
Like a heart that is tune to YOUR name
AS the stars in their last night
Kept time to each breath that you drew,
But our passion is dumb-O my love, you would
come
If you knew--if you knew.
You would glow in the flush of the dawn
You glitter co1dly above;
You would lean like to his cry
Who yearns to the lips of your love,
You would raise him who faints at your feet
To height that his hope dared;
You would warm the poor clod to your arms to
god
If you cared-if you cared

The Quickest, Simplest
Cough Remedy
Easily and ChcapIy Made at
Home. Saves You s2.

This plan makes a pint of cough
syrup-enough to last a family q LONG
time. You couldn't buy as 11uch or as
good cough syrup for $3.50.
Simple as it is, it gives almost in
slant relief and usually conquers an
ordinary cough in "a hours. This is
partly due to the fact that it is slightly
laxative, STIMULATES the appetite. and
has an excellent tonic effect It is
pleasant TO take--children like it. An
excellent remedy, too, for whooning
cough, spasmodic Group and bronchial
asthma.
Mix one pint of granulated SUGAR with
minutes. Put ga ounces of Pinex fifty
cents, WORTHY in a pint bottle, and add
the Sugar Syrup. It keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
Pine is one of the Oldest and best
known remedial agents for the throat
membranes. Pinex is q most valuable
concentrated compound of Norway white
pine extract, and is rich in guaiacol and
other natural healing elements. Otter
preparations will not work in this
combination.
The prompt results from this mixture
have endeared it TO thousands of house
wives in the United States and Canada
which explains whv the plsn has been
initiated often, but never successfully.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction,
or money promptly refunded, goes with
this preparation. Your druggist has
Pinex. or will get it for you. If not.
