Mother Made Quick
Acting Cough Syrup
Should Be Kept Handy in Every
Home-Easiiy Prepared
and Costs Little,

Mothers, you'll never know what you
are missing until you make up this in
expensive quick-acting cough syrup
and try it. Children love it's pleasant
taste and nothing else will loosen
cough or chest cold and heal the in
famed or swollen throat membranes
with such ease and promptness. It's
equally as good for grown-ups as for
children.
This splendid cough syrup Is made
by pouring 21a ounces Of Pinex $50
cents WORTHY, into pint bottle and
filling the bottle with plain granulated
sugar syrup. This gives you a full
pint-a family supply-of much better
cough remedy than you could buy
ready-made for $250-a clear saving
of 50.
The moment it touches the infamed,
cold-congested membranes that line
the throat and air passages, the heal
ing begins, the phlegm loosens, sore
ness leaves, cough spasms lessen and
soon disappear altogether, thus ending
a cough quicker than you ever thought
possible. Hoarseness and ordinary
coughs are conquered by it in "a hours
or less. Excellent for bronchitis,
whooping cough, spasmodic cough,
bronchial asthma or winter coughs.
Pinex is highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway pine ex-
tract, combined with guaiacol and is
famous the world over for its quick
healing effect on the membranes.
Beware of substitutes. Ask your
druggists for "2h ounces of Pinex"
with directions and don't accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso-
lutte satisfaction or money refunded.

About this time the crowd decided
it wanted to say ''howdy' to Mrs. Will

Mr.. Wilson was caused by the ap-
pearance of his right hand, grimed
and oily like boilermakers, the re-
suit of receiving the vigorous hand
shakes of numerous workmen, for the
most part railroad employees.
Over one hundred members of the
various railroad brotherhoods, clad
in overalls, were on hand to welcome

mistake yesterday in announcing the

KANSAS COULD DEFEND U. S.
Rich Enough to Pay Bill Because She's
Sober, Senator Says.

Back in 1880 Kansas went dry, and her
sons and daughters who live in this
wet city still meet to celebrate (st a
distance) tho dryness Of their mother
state. Last night they met again a.
the Waldorf In a mineral water ban
quet, and the reason for their abiding
pride in Kansas prohibition was made
perfectly plain, at least TO the minds
Of Kansans. by william II. Thompson.
United States Senator from Kansas
According TO him. prohibition as a
business proposition has made his state
financially strong enough to pay the
whole bill for preparedness.
Kansas coins wealth every year
from farm products and live stock at
the rate Of $3.50 900, 900" he said, "and
in 1915 our manufacturing products
amounted to 1925, 100000. This pro-
duction would enable our state to paw
alone the entire appropriation for
army, navy and coast defences neces-
sary for the protection Of our country
and still have plenty OF money left for
our people.
at would, therefore, seem that II one
state is able 10 pay for all the neces-
sary preparation for defence, the pro-
gramme Of President Wilson cannot be
regarded "a unreasonable when we
have the whole nation to draw upon
