HOtC to Make
Better Cough Syrup than
You Can Buy
A Family supply, Saving 50
and Fully Guaranteed

A full pint of cough svrup-as much
as YOU could buy for S2.50-can easily
be made at home. You viii find nothing
that takes hold of the ordinary cough
more quickly. usually conquering it in
side of "A hours. Excellent, too, for
spasmOdic Group, whoOping cough, brOn-
chial asthma and bronchitis
Mix one pint Of graduated sugar with
u pint of warm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 2115 ounces of Pinex fifty
cents WORTH IN a pint bottle, then add
the Sugar Syrup. It keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspOOnful every one, two or
three hours.
This is Just laxative enough to help
relieve a cough. Also stimulates the
appetite, which is usually upset by
cough. The taste is pleasant.
The effect of pine and sugar syrup on
the inhamed membranes is well known.
Pinex is a most valuable concentrated
compound of Norway white pine extract,
rich in guaiacOl and other natural
healing pine elements. Other prepare
lions will not work in this combination.
This Pinex and Sugar Syrup remedy
has often been initiated, but the old sue
cessful mixture has never been edualed.
It 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 The Pinex Co., Ft. Wayne, lad.

a doggone name in the list that a man
could read without a dark lantern and
jimmy. I heard BilkS snOrting and
swearing, and just then a nice looking
fast came from the dining ROOM
He stepped up to the merchant
prince and said: You're Mr.. Bilks, /
believe. My name is Hawkins
oh, your name is Hawkins, is it?
rOared Bilks; and is this your sigma
ture 1 see before me% Hawkins said 1t
was. i wasn't sure said Bllks, who
seemed eXaSperated beyond endurance,
whether it was Dusenberry or SnOd-
grass. 1t never occurred to me that 1t
might be Hawkins. Well, young man,
1 don't do business with a drummer who
hasn't learned to write his name. I've
been waiting for you for two days, and
1 guess I can wait little longer until
a sane man comes alng.
Then BllkS teetered out as mad as
a wet hen and 1 never saw anybody
look sicker than that travelling man.
l felt sorry for him, dOggOne 1t. He
asked me if there was any way OF
placating Bilzs who is his firms best
customer in this town. L told him there
wasn't When Bilks gets mad said,
he stays mad for eight years and six
months and there's no way OF cooling
him down that / ever heard OF. But,
1 said. the lesson YOU have received
ought TO be worth all IL costs you.
There's no use in grown man writ
ing his name so that it lOks like chain
lightning on a bender
Il threw it into him good and plenty,
for he seemed willing to stand without
hitching, and when l got done he said
that he'd never do such a fool trick
again. Hereafter he said, while the
tears streamed down his cheeks, III

THE chumps who write crazy sigma
lures lose business and make enemies

case. I wish they could all have a jolt
that would shake their teeth loose $50

New York, Jan. 6--The majority opinion
Of the bankers who appeared as witnesses
at the first hearing before the federal re-
serve organization committee consisting of
secretaries McAdoo and Houston, favored
the creation in New York of regional
bank of such magnitude that it would alb
sorb so to 90 percent of the $1O6, OOO. 900

was needed here in order that it might

British Government Gives Him Better

ing He Was lndiscreet.
London, Eng, Jan. 6.-The transfer
to Rio Janeiro of Sir Lionel Garden.
British minister to Mexico, which is
promotion as far as salary is con-
cerned, although the two legations pos
SeSs the same standing in the service,
would have been made some time ago
except for the fact that the British
foreign office would not make the
change while the minister was under
fire for the alleged interview in which
he was made to reflect on the policy
of the United States toward Mexico.
The diplomatic cnange In Mexico will
be received with surprise on this side
of the Atlantic, as no one here be-
Heved that attacks made on him by
the American papers were justifiable,
although at times his actions since
the Mexican troubles began have been
considered as indiscreet
Sir Lionel Garden probably will come
to England before going to his new
post. 1t is said by his friends that
when Sir Lionel went to Mexico he
was offered the post at Rio JaneirO.
Owing to the state of health of his
wife, sir Lionel decided to go to Mex
leo first
Unfortunately Garden went to Mexico
with a reputation of being anti-Amer-
lean. at time when a good under
standing between the United States and
Great Britain was vital Naturally the
BRUSH govern defended him
against the attacks, but the belief pre-
vailed at the same time that it would
be better to find another post for
him.
The salary Of British minister at Rio
is S1T,500. with house allowance of
$1,25O, while that at Mexico CITY is
$4,000 less and no house allowance.
Charles Murray Warling. the proba-
Bile successor of sir Lionel Garden, has
had a long and varied career in the
diplomatic service, which he Joined in
1883. Most of the time he has occu-
pied diplomatic posts at CONSTANT
nople, and Teheran. He also has
served at Paris, Madrid, and Rio jan

66T RECEIVED a most important let

merchant. TT is from some
body who wants to buy a vacant lot
of mine, and I am anxious to sell, but
don't know who the man is. His let

down to the fine points of punctuation,
was perfectly correct But when the
man came to write his signature he
seemed to lose his temper and Of all

the worst.
I have been studying over it for
hours and 1 can't even make a guess at
what it is. Sometimes 1 think it's

We wish to state that during the year 1913
that there was more Chase and SanbOrns Famous
COffees and Teas sold and used in FL PasO than in
any previous year The reason was and is-That
Chase and SanbOrn, the Worlds Largest and Best
Coffee and Tea House, selects and buys the Finest
Coffee that the Worlds Famous Coffee Planta-
lions produce, and also the Finest Tea that is
grown in the Famous Tea Gardens Of the World.
We thank the People Of the Southwest for this
wonderful growth in our Coffee and Tea Business
and feel sure that every customer of the Chase
and Sanbom line feels satisfied that they found
the best and will never be cOntented with any
other brand.
We realize that we cannot directly supply
every family in El PasO with Chase and SanbOrns
COffees and Teas but we can indirectly do So
That is through the Grocery Merchants Of Ell PasO.
