tificate did not correspond with the
number on his engine. This was sur
prising news to the new owner, who
stopped payment on a check given in
payment for the car. He proved he

for Cough Syrup

Thousands of housewives have found
money usually spent for cough prepara-

for making cough syrup at home. 1t
is simple and cheap but it has no equal
for prompt results. 1t takes right hold
of a cough and gives immediate rellef,
usually stopping an ordinary cough in
"a hours or less.
Get 21s ounces of Pinex from any
druggist. pour it into a pint bottle and
add plain, granulatcd 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 a long time.
It's truly astonishing how quickly 1t
acts, penetrating through every ali
passage of the throat and lungs-loos--
ems and raises the phleSm, soothes and
heals the membranes, and gradually but
surely the annoying throat tickle and
dreaded cough disappear entirely: Nothing

FUTILE FOR
CONTINUED from Page One)

In the event that President VIII
son should do this thing that gossip
suspects, Senator Lodge, as chairman
Of the state foreign affairs commit
tee, would undoubtedly say that the
situation has changed since the SEN
ate last talked compromise with the
president, that a new president with
a new policy will take office in three
months. and that he would keep the
resubmitted treaty in his foreign af-
fairs committee until March 4.
But President Wilson is most I'M
likely to resubmit the treaty with an
offer to accept the reservations. or to
do anything else harmful to Article x.
Wilson Not Deceived.
President Wilson is not self-deceiv-
ed about his position. He knows that
even more than most presidents, after
an election in which the opposing
party wins. he is impotent for imme-
diate or practical results. From now
on, Wilson will be intent on keeping
his record straight for history. And
having history in mind, after standing
by Article X through SO much tragedy.
he is not likely to throw it overheard
now.
l think very few people realize how
completely Wilson is wrapped up in
Article X. Article X may or may not
be THE heart of the treaty" as Will
son says it is. Mr.. Elihu Root says
it is not. If Mr.. Root were describ-
ing Article X in terms of anatomy he
would say it is third leg, or an eX-
ira head Mr.. Roots exact language
is that Article x ''is provision stand
ing by itself quite outside the general
scheme of the league" But however,
that may be, whether Article X is the
heart of the covenant" or not, it is
most certainly very close to the heart
of Wilson. 1t is Wilson's own child.
and so far as the covenant is concern
ed, it is said to be his only child. If
Article Y were eliminated, the Gov
enant would be not Wilson's but some
ones else. If Article X were eliminat-
ed, history could hardly set Wilson
down as a father of the league of ma
tions. And it is fair to infer that this
is exactly the dream that Wilson has
about history.
Father Of Article.
That Wilson personally is RESPONSE
BILE for Article X. there can be no
doubt. That it is the only substantial
element that Wilson contributed to the

before the second Pan-American scion

Wilson had the problem of Mexico

tries in handling the Mexican problem.
He wanted to devise plan which
