Thousands of housewives have

takes right hold of a cough and gives
immediate relief, usually stopping an
ordicary cough in "a hours or less.
Get ga ounces of Pinex from any
druggist, pour it into a pint bottle,
and add plain graduated sugar syrup
to make full pint. If you prefer,
use clarified molasses, honey, or corn
syrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either
way, it tastes good, keeps perfectly,
and lasts a family long time.
