A Stubborn COugh
L00ser,s Right UD
This homemade remedy Ia a wonder
for quick results. Easily and
cheaply made.

Here is a homemade syrup which
millions of people have found to be
the most dependable means of breaking
up stubborn coughs 1t is cheap and
simple, but very prompt in action. Tn.
der its healing, soothing influence,
chest soreness goes, phlegm loosens,
breathing becomes easier, tickling in
throat stops and you get good nights
restful sleep. The usual throat and
chest colds are conquered by it in "a
hours or less. Nothing better for
bronchitis, hoarseness, Group, whoop-
ing cough, bronchial asthma or winter
coughs
To make this splendid cough syrup,
pour 2la ounces of Pinex into a pint
bottle and fill the bottle with plain
granulated sugar syrup and shake
thoroughly. If you prefer. use clari-
fled molasses, honey, or corn syrup,
instead of sugar syrup. Either way,
you get full pint-a family supply
of much better cough syrup than you
could buy ready-made for three times
the money. Keeps perfectly and chill
dren love its pleasant taste.
Pinex is a special and highly con-
centrated compound of genuine Nor
way pine extract, known the world
over for its prompt healing effect upon
the membranes.
To avoid disappointment ask your
druggist for "2h ounces of Pinex"
with full directions, and don't accept
anything else. Guaranteed to give ab-
solute satisfaction or money promptly
refunded. The Pinex Co., TT. Wayne,

ments which follow it. The disease
has been very battling to the med
ical profession and health authori-
ties frankly admit that ordinary
preventive measures such as wear
ing of masks and closing public
places seem of little avail.
Persons who are weak and run
down, and who have not the
strength to throw off the Influenza
germ, are the earliest victims.
Those who catch colds easily or who
are suffering from catarrhal trou-
bles are also early victims, as the
inflamed mucous membrane Innings
of the nose and throat are an open
door to the germs. If you are suf-
ferig from any of these symptoms,
nothing will build you up and for
tify your system against attack like
Tanlac, which contains the most
powerful tonic properties known
to science. This statement is cas-
lily proven by the fact that this cell
ebrated medicine is now having the
greatest sale of any system tonic in
the history Of medicine. 1t Aas
been accomplishing remarkable re-
suits during the present epidemic
and hundreds Of thousands who
have used it are enjoying the best
Of health. One prominent physician
in Texas frankly stated that he had
found Tanlac to be the finest tonic
to be had for building up his pa
tients who had had Influenza.
Actual experience has shown that
the best way to keep from taking
Influenza is to keep the system in
good shape, as it is well known
fact that the powers of resistance
of the human system can be so per-
fected that it can throw off almost
any infection, not even excepting
Spanish Influenza, which is one Of
the most contagious diseases known.
Tanlac increases your strength
and weight and creates a good,
healthy appetite for nourishing
food. 1t keeps you physically fit
and makes you strong, vigorous and
we'll, and in this way fortifies you
against deadly disease germs. In
connection with the Tanlac treat
ment, be sure to keep tn bowels
open by taking Tanlac Laxative
Tablets.
