Try Making Your OtUfs
Cough Remedy
You can save about SO, and have

made kind. Easily done.
RRTTE5155RT5IT5

If you combined the curative proper
ties of every known "ready-made" cough
remedy, you probably could not get as
much real curative power as there is !
this simple homemade cough syrup,
which is easily prepared in a few
minutes.
Get from any druggist 2K ounces of
Pinex, pour it into a pint bottle and
fill the bottle with syrup, using either
plain granulated sugar syrup, clarified
molasses, honey, or corn syrup, as de.
sired. The result is a full pint Of
really better cough syrup than you could
buy ready-made for three times the
money. Tastes pleasant and never
spoils.
This Pinex and Syrup preparation gets
right at the cause of a cough and gives
almost immediate relief. 1t loosens the
phlegm, stops the nasty throat tickle
and heals the sore, irritated membranes
so gently and easily that 1t is really
astonishing.
A days use will usually overcome the
ordinary cough and for bronchitis, Group,
hoarseness and bronchial asthma, there
is nothing better.
Pinex is a most valuable concentrated
compound of genuine Norway pine ex-
tract, and has been used for generations
to break up severe coughs.
To avoid disappointment, ask your

full directions, and don't accept any
