Suffragettes Strike a Snag

Atlanta, June 1.-The suffra-
gettes of Georgia have struck a
snag on which their fair-saiIing
craft is likely to go 10 smash. 1t
has been learned that the passage
of an equal suffrage measure in
Georgia would inevitably give to
negro women the right to vote.
The Maryland suffragettes. ad-
hitting this fact. it is declared.
are already busy with a plan to
try to educate negro women so
that they will be able to handle
the ballot intelligently, and one
prominent suffrage leader, Mrs.
Elizabeth King Ellicott, has be-
queathed her large estate to the
cause Of woman suffrage and to
the education of the negroes.
Some of the Maryland women,
1t is reported, were opposed to
giving the vote to negro women,
but when the leaders pointed out
that one would inevitably bring
the other. they continued their
campaign for state wide suffrage
and at the same time, propose to
educate the colored people so
that they will be able to vote in
diligently.
Since these facts have been
known a good many we'll known
Georgia women who had given
their support to the suffrage
movement are holding back I'M
til some solution of this new COM
plicotion is offered.

Money JdOed
by Making Your Cough
Syrup at Home
Takes But a Few Moments,
and stops a Hard Cough
IN a Hurry

Cough medicines, as a rule, contain
large quantity OF plain syrup. If you
take one pint of granulated sugar, add
u pint of warm water and stir about
2 minutes, you have as good syrup as
money could buy
If you viii then put 215 ounces Of
Pinex fifty cents WORTH in a pint
bottle, and fill it up with the Sugar
syrup as you could buy ready made for
$3.50. Take 3 teaspoonful every one,
two or three hours. 1t keeps perfectly.
You viii find it one of the best cough
svrups you ever used-even In whoOping
cough. You can feel it take hold
usually cOnquers an ordinary cough in
"a hours. 1t is Just laxative enough,
has a good tonic effect, and the taste
is pleasant.
It is a splendid remedy, too, for
whooping cough, spasmodie Group,
hoarseness and bronchial asthma.
Pinex is a most valuable concentra-
ted compound of Norway white pine
extract, rich IN guaiacOl and other
healing pine elements. No other prepa-
ration viii work In this formula.
This plan for making cough remedy
with Pinex and Sugar Syrup is now
used in more homes than any other
cough remedy. The plan has often been
initiated but never successfully.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction,
OF money promptly refunded, goes with
this preparation. Your druggist has
Pinex, or will get it for you. If not,
send to The PineX Co., Fl. Wayne, Ind.

Detroit, June q, 1913.-"About a
