University of Vermont and the state

HorD TO Make Pine
Cough Syrup at Home
Has no equal for prompt results.
Takes but a moment to prepare
and saves you about ".

Pine is used in nearly all prescrlp-
tions and remedies for coughs. The
reason is that pine contains several
elements that have a remarkable
effect ir soothing and healing. the
mem branes OF the throat and chest.
Pine congh syrups are combinations
of pine and syrup. The syrup part
is usually plain sugar syrup.
To make the best pine cough remedy
that money can buy, put 2He ounces
of Pinex in a pint bottle, and NIL up
with home made sugar syrup. Or
Won can use clarified molasses, honey,
or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup.
Either way, you make a full pint
more than you can buy ready made
for three times the money. 1t 10
pure, good and tastes very pleasant.
You can feel this take hold OF a
cough or cold in 4 way that means
business. The cough may be dry,
hoarse and tight, or may be persist
emily loo.e from the formation OF
phlegm. The cause is the same--in-
famed membranes--and this Pinex
and Syrup combination will stop it
usually in "a hours or less. Splen-
did. too. for bronchial asthma, hoarse-
ness. or any ordinary throat ailment.
Pinex is a highly concentrated com
pound of genuine Norway pine ex-
tract, and is famous the world over
for its prompt. effect upon coughs.
Beware of substitutes. Ask your
druggist for "2ia ounces of Pinex"
with directions, and don't accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso-
lutte satisfaction or money refunded.

AT final sale by the County Court
Clerk, last Monday, Hon. E. W. Es-
sary was the purchaser Of what Is
known as the Lucy Richardson lands
of 1877 acres, lying in the old 14th dis
trict,, IL miles from Chesterfield, the
consideration being $6,705.O0. This
is the tract Of land that was decided
by the late Esq. R. ]. Dyer to Mrs.
Richardson, after Dyer had killed her
husband in Lexington. Cane Greek
drainage canal runs through the mid
die Of the land, which drains all of it
and much enhances its value.
A good letter from our former
Southern Methodist pastor, Rev. P. D.
7. Roberts, tells us that he is well
situated in Memphis as the pastor of
Trinity church. The people will be
good to Brother Roberts-because
from the first they will see that he is
going to be good to them-and useful.
No man is worth cent, socially, re-
ligiously, politically or otherwise, ex-
cept for WHAT HE DOES. Bro. Rob-
erts has mighty good words to say
for pastor Rose and Presiding Elder
Butts.
]. X White and son, Oscar, have
sold their combined farm Of 108 acres,
one mile North East of town, to Neal
Hodgin, of Reagan and Wiley Hodgin,
Of near Sardis--consideration $780,

Of the place this year and get all it
makes. The Whites bought this
place two years ago last November
and paid $500. They have built two
good homes and did other improving
and now come out with profit of
about $500. It is to be hoped the
Whites will stay with us--they are

Children Taught how to Eat.

Too many school children are much
underweight because they do not get
proper training in good food habits
and personal hygiene. That fact was
demonstrated in an experiment car
rieI on with school children in Ames,
w the nutrition of department of Iowa
State college.
In February, 1919. 40 per cent of the
school children at Central school,
Ames. were found to be 10 per cent or
more below the average weight for
their age and height. These male
nourished children then received class
instruction in good food habits and
personal hygiene and many OF them
received in addition one pint of milk
each day. BY October, 1919. only "a
per cent of the school children were
below average weight. Glass instruc-
ton and the milk allowance were con-
tinued and by January l, 1920, the per-
centage had again decreased greatly.
Those in charge of the experiment
attribute much of its success to the
interest and cooperation of the par
ents and the school principal.
Realizing the growing desire OF par
ents for more specific information on
child training, the home economics
division of Iowa State college is CIV
ing this subject a prominent place on
the program for Farm and Home
week. Miss Alma Binzel. a noted au'
thority from the University OF Mime
sofa. will give series OF lectures on
the general topic: Making the most
of our children"
