This is Guaranteed to
Stop Your Cough
Make this Family Supply of
Cough Syrup at Home
and Save Sc.

This plan makes pint of better
cough syrup than you could buy ready
made for $3.50, A few doses usually
conquer an ordinary cough--relieves
even whooping cough quickly. Simple
as it is, no better remedy can be had
at any price.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
u pint of warm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex fifty
cents WORTHY in pint bottles then
add the Sugar Syrup. It has a pleasant
taste and lasts family a long time.
Take 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, spasmodic Group, bronchitis, bron-
ehjal asthma and whooping cough.
The effect of pine on the membranes
is well known. Pinex is a most valu-
able concentrated compound of Norwe-
gian white pine extract, and is rich in
guaiacol and other natural healing
pine elements. Other preparations will
not work in this combination.
This Pinex and Sugar Syrup remedy
has often been initiated, though never
successfully. 1t is now used in more
homes than any other cough remedy.
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, send to

MRS. TONNES
LECTURE THIS EVENING

Mrs. Elizabeth Towne, editor and pub
Usher of the Nautilus, will give a lecture
at Gable hall this evening, to which the
public is invited free of charge. Her
topic is New Thought" a philosophy
which she discusses as forcefully as any
of its exponents in this country. The
New York Evening Journal of a few
weeks ago made this comment:
Mrs. Towne has taught people to fight
against adversely in terms and in ways
that they can understand. Several mil
lions of people have written her since she
began writing, and one of the most re-
markable illustrations of her power of her
work was given by brakeman who had
his legs cut off in wreck. The doctors
had to tell him that he would not live I
will live, he said and he did. Then he
said that If you made up your mind to
do a thing you could do it if you didn't
give up. Elizabeth Towne had said so,
and he believed her.
lone thing Mrs Towne believes in, and
that is that no one can do another's work
for him. She does not teach an easy way
of evading the consequences of ones acts,
but shoulder the consequences, learn the
lesson and work out of those conditions
into bette rones.
Mrs. Towne is a. woman of very wide
interests During the luncheon almost
everything from the latest thing In silver
cleaning devices to the newest 'F'uturist'
and his painting was discussed with equal
enthusiasm. She told of a delicious recipe
| for cooking bananas served with steak
| of the evolution of democratic gown,
! good enough for the very highest and
| simple enough for the humblest, of her
work and some of her battles The
abundance of good will, magnetism and
| energy of her wholesome personality was
| like fresh and invigorating breeze"

THINGS NOT WHAT THEY SEEM WHEN MANS
WIFE IS CHAIRMAN OF A BAZAR COMMITTEE

Mr.. pumpkins arrived home at the usual
time the other afternoon only to discover
that his wife was not on hand to welcome
him.
| Now
Every one knows that wife's first duty
is to be waiting just inside the front door
to greet her lord and master" with the
prescribed smile and to see that all of his
wants are at once satisfied.
Mr.. pumpkins after the manner of the
well trained husband that he is was very
much annoyed at the failure of his wife
to fit into the scheme of things.
| But
Being resourceful man, he managed
to find his favorite chair in the library,
on his side of the fireplace, and to make
some pretense of enjoying himself
But what is library with big roar
ing fire, and an easy chair without ones
| favorite book or magazine?
| Mr.. pumpkins reached toward the table
| only to find the "two-months-old" maga-
zine which he had read as long before.
"There is one thing that my wife never
does" Mr.. pumpkins had often boasted
| to his friends. She never puts things
away where 1 can't find them, and she
is always at home to greet me in the aft
| ernoons."
| With wife of the sort he'd been brag-
ging about he naturally expected to find
the book he was reading and the latest
magazine in which he'd started Serial
story, right at hand-in fact, where he'd
| left them.
He then began to feel about on the
table to see if he couldn't find just any
old thing to read, and, mercy, save us!
what was that he stuck his hand into?
| Anne" he yelled vociferously (Anne is
his wife). Are you upstairs? Come down
| here and see what this mess is I've stuck
my hands into on the library table,"
| No answer.
Anne" he called again, come here
quick. I'm in trouble!'
i No answer again.
in, laden with bundles and traps and be-
longings of all kinds and descriptions.
| Wife, exclaimed Mr.. pumpkins, rs
| soon as he beheld her, Pm so glad
| you've come. Look al my hands! Look
at the library tablet I've upset some-
| thing. What is it "
"Oh, dearl oh dear," cried Mrs Bump
kins in wild terror. You surely haven't
upset that jar of paste all over the IL
F.! barry table, have you? Mercy! but YOU
are awkward! Yes; you've spilled it over
