The Best Cough Syrup is Homemade.
  Here's an easy way to save $2, and yet have the best cough remedy you ever tried.

You've probably heard of this we'll known plan of making cough syrup at home. But have you ever used it7 When you do, you will understand why thousands of families, the world over, feel that they could hardly. keep house without it. It's simple and cheap, but the way it takes hold of a cough will quickly earn it permanent place in your home.
 Into a pint bottle, pour 211s ounces of Pinex; then add plain granulated sugar syrup to fill up the pint. Or, if desired, use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup instead of sugar syrup. Either way, it tastes good, never spells, and gives you full pint of better cough remedy than you could buy ready-made for three times it's cost.
 It is really wonderful how quickly this home made remedy eonquers a cough-usually in 24 hours or less. It seems to penetrate through every air passage, 1oosens dry, hoarse or tight cough, lifts the phlegm, heals the mem- branes, and gives almost immediate re- lief. Splendid for throat tickle, hoarse- ness, croup, bronchitis and bronchial asthma.
 Pinex is highly concentrated com pound of genuine Norway pine extract, and has been used for generations for throat and chest ailments.
 To avoid disappointment ask your druggist for "21A ounces of Pinex" with directions, and don't accept anything else. Guaranteed to give absolute satis- faction or money refunded. The Pinex Co.,, Ft. Wayne, Ind.

PROCEEDINGS OF
The MADISON COURT
Judge Shackelford Making Rapid
Progress First Week of the
October Term

Things are doing in the Madison
circuit court and since the beginning
/ of the October session on Tuesday
goodly number of cases have been
disposed of and Judge W. +. Shackel-
! ford is losing no time between acts
in issuing chl for witnesses in the
ones to follow. The members Of the
jury have been hearing testimony in
cases of various character, and there
! are indications that the first of the
week will record unusual progress.
The first case to be tried resulted
in verdict of not guilty, it being
that Of John Van Winlzle, charged
with pointing deadly firearms.
When the second case was called,
that of thocemcwmneainofJ toioinnn
that of the commonwealth VS.. one
John w. Bates ,colored, it was offici-
ally reported that the aforesaid John
w. Bates was not to be found. He,
therefore, forfeited a bond of $100;
was fined in the sum of 500, given
a Jail sentence Of 40 days and dis
franchised for a period Of two years.
Rates, it was charged, was guilty of
carrying concealed weapons.
Another acquittal came with the
hearing of the next case, that of Ell
mer Bowman, against whom there
was charge of unlawful taking of
property. A plea of not guilty was
entered and the defendant proved to
the satisfaction of the jurors that
there was no unlawful intent.
Sid Diggs, charged with hav adj
ministered poison to another, was
not tried, owing to the absence Of
some Of the witnesses in the case, and
this was advanced for a hearing on
the seventh day of the court, attach
ments issued for witnesses being or
dered.
The verdict in one of three. cases
against Roy Williams, charged with
the unlawful sale of whisky, resulted
in verdict of not guilty, tie two
remaining charges being filed saway
The intention of the jurors iyg deal
ing harshly in cases wherein there is
a charge Of carrying concealed wea-
pons was apparent again in the case
of Grover Williams, who was fined
800 and given jail sentence of 40
days, together with disfranchisement
orders for period of two years. In
another similar charge, fine of $75
and Jail sentence were meted out.
Williams will languish behind the
bars of the county Jail as result for
period Of at least 80 days.
The charge of grand larceny con-
fronting w. G. Yancy was receiving
the attention of the court Wednesday
forenoon.

Fire Prevention Day
To Be Observed Friday

Friday is Fire Prevention Day
and it is expected that every resi-
dent of the city will look to it that
conditions about property may be
improved in manner that will
lessen danger from fire. The
state will have its attention call
ed to the important fact that this
work, ever so small, has been the
means of decreasing the loss by
fire. In some of the schools it IS
being taught and reports will be
made at various schools by stu
dents regarding conditions at
their homes, and it is said that III
some instances, parents have been
surprised at the interest taken by
their children in this. matter, they
having acquired the idea through
widespread publication of state
inents treating upon fire prcyen-
ton.

CLEVERLY FORCED
CHECK DISCOVERED
Local Firm Looser After Two
Banks Pass On New Method
of Fraud

One OF the cleverest of check
torgeries brought to the atten-
ton of local bankers in some time
has just come to light through the
combined efforts of bank officials
at Richmond. Chicago and Phila-
delphia. The check, which was
presented at a local business cs-
tablishment ard which was for
the sum of $50, is said TO have
beaten the check protection game,
since it was properly perforated,
properly printed and drawn, sign
ed and endorsed. The man pre-
senting it received most of the
amount represented by its face
value, the local firm being the
loser. The genuineness OF the
check, with perforations and pro-
per signature, was not detected
by the Chicago officials and it was
when it had been sent back to the
Pennsylvania bank. Philadelphia.
upon which institution it had b~-n
drawn. that the forgery was dis
covered. 1t was returned to
Chicago, thence to Richmond.
Were the officials were informed
the check was a fraud AMI TIE

one Of the most intricate and .rif-
cult things vet found to dupli-
cate, each rerforation being diff
fercnt for every firm. Nothing IS
known OF the man who presentsf
tlle check. other than t'-at he rep
resented himself as a salesman
for the Ackerman Coffee Co. of
Philadelphia. This added to the
theory that the check was genu-
me, it having been drawn upon a
bank in that CITY. The banking
officials there returned the check.
adding it was a fraud, one of the
best ever turned up as yet, and
sent information to the effect
that such a company was not in
existence to their knowledge. The
man presenting the check was in
the city but for 4 short time.
