Famous Old Recipe
for Cough Syrup
Easily and cheaply made at home,
but it beats them al for
quick results.

Thousands of housewives VI
have found how to save two III
thirds of the money usually Ill
spent for cough preparations, by Ill
using this well-known old recipe III
for making cough syrup. 1t is Ill
simple and cheap but it has no III
equal for results. 1t gives .imme- II
date relief, usually stopping an
ordinary cough in "a hours or less.
Get 2Ha ounces of Pinex from
any druggist, .pour. 1T into g. pint
bottle, and add plain granulated
sugar syrup to make a full pint.
If you prefer, use clarified molas-
ses, 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 quick
" it acts, penetrating through
every air passage of the throat
and lungs-loosens and raises the
phlegm, soothes and heals the
membranes, and gradually but
surely the annoying throat tickle
and dreaded cough disappear en-
tirely. Nothing better for bron-
chitis, spasmodic Group, hoarse-
ness or bronchial asthma. II II

~N y CID man sat dreamily
Az gazing into the fireplace of
wEyEk a richly furnished room. 1t
Tex was Christmas eve and
v Marvin Hughes was looking
back over the years of his
SSEN ~ life and vas grave and sad
&N3ERT dened as he realized that he
had neither chick nor child
of his own, az the echo of
music and the voices of rollicking chill
dren in the apartment overhead were
borne to his ears.
The recognition of the fact that he
was getting old, that he was missing
something In life that might make
him better and happier, appealed to
him powerfully this Christmas eve.
He had mechanically distributed the
usual Christmas largesse at the office.
Homeward bound he had neglected no
appeal from the street mendicant.
This was not soul-satisfying, however.
1t had dawned upon him that he had
brought his isolation upon himself;
that there were at least two persons
in the great city who were of kith and
kin and he set to summing up the
duty he owed them.
II have been no closer to them than
if l were an utter stranger" he solilo-
quized. ut is my fault, l suppose, for

| have simply sent them the usual hol-

Which of the two deserves recogni-
tion-Etta Harness or Alberta Norris?
The first named was a widow and
second cousin. Hughes had supplied
the capital to start her in a boarding
house at her urgent request and she
had managed to make a living out of
it. For a time he called and she had
put herself out to make upon him an
impression of admiration of his sue
cessful business record, of gratitude
for his financial cooperation, of her
love and devotion for him, the last
near relative she had in the world.
Then, too, she had appealed to him
in a strong way. Once she had TAX

mother.

AMERICAN LEAGUE
AMERICAN ATHLETES
 TO BE CHARTERED IN
 , ARGE SCHOOL HOUSE

New York, July 4.--Memhers of the
 American Olympic teams will be quar-
 tered in one of the largest school houses in Antwerp during the Olympic games to be held in Belgium this sum
 mer, according to the statement of Gustavus Kirby president of the Olympic commission. who returned
 from abroad Saturday. MT. Kirby made
 complete arrangements for accommo- |
 dalton of more than 400 athletes who
 will represent the United States in the
 seventh Olympiad during his stay in Belgium.
 President Kirby states in his re-
 port that the Belgians offered every assistance and cooperation looking to
 the successful participation of the American teams. Similar action has
 been taken by the United States gov
 ernment officials at Antwerp and the army leaders, who received special in- structions from Washington to aid the officers and athletes of the American teams in every way possible.
 According to his resume of condi- tions, the United States entrants should win complete victories in large num- Der of the events. providing funds to sent really representative teams can
 be secured. Collections by public sub scriptions were far below the required amount, however, according to MT. Kirby, who stated that he feared it would be necessary to curtail the num- Der of athletes to be sent abroad un-
 less the subscriptions greatly increased
 during the next few weeks.

And" declares Sloan, 1T never had one winning day--not a single one in twenty-e eight. The nearest I came to winning was one day when I lost only $14. A year ago I concluded that I was through betting-made up my mind that the game was unbeatable. And haven't made a bet of any kind on horse since Pm through"
 Sloan's story is but an echo of count less thousands of others, of men, and women. too, who became fascinated by the lure of the turf, who tried to "beat the ponies," and failed--always failed Form, after all, counts for but little on race track. For there are so many reversals that there is no real form. Horses run dull races one day are beaten off twenty lengths. Then they run again, in a few days. against the same field, same track. same dis tance. They win, beating by a city block the same horses that had kicked mud in their faces days earlier. Not so long ago a horse won on a New York track at 30 to 1. The public assumed that the stable had made a clean-up in bets. The fact is that the stable hadn't bet a dollar because it didn't figure the horse had chance. Father Bilr' Daly sent a horse named Rockport to the post at 100 to 1. Fla ther Bill' has been identified with racing for about half a century. He knows horses.
 1 Rockport won the race easily. The crowd at once said:
 Father Bill must have won bank
 roll sneaking that dog over" ! The fact is that Father Bill" had a ] s bet on the horse--the same sum he always bets on every horse-$5. no more, no less. Rockport's victory was
 as much of surprise to Father Bill as l to anyone else.
 l Nose Goldblatt, who trains for the Whitney stable, sent Matinee Idol to l the post at Latonia last fall. Prior to
 the race friends of Nose asked if Mat inee Idol had any chance.
 None" replied Goldblatt. His legs | aren't in very good shape and he's been off his feed for some time.
 I Matinee Idol won the race by about
 six lengths, after being almost left at
 the post and paid $62 in the mutuels-- 1 30 to 1.

PREXY JOHN MARTIN CIV ES OPINION OF JUMPER SITUATION
ev Assaeiated Pres,

Memphis, July 4.-TO meet the situation which has developed re- gently by the "jumping" of con tracts by several Southern Associa- tion baIlplayers to independent leagues, John D. Martin. president of the Southern Association, who returned to this city today from New Orleans. where he has been in conference with officials of the club in that city. gave out a statement based on Il long and careful inves- tigation by him of the questions of law involved.
 Mr. Martin. q lawyer by prOfes- sion, declared in his statement that sthe effective and legal remedy lies in action for damages against the owners of the independent clubs who sign player under contract with organized ball. rather than m injunction againsy the player who violates his contract.
 The measure of damages recOv- ernbIe is amply covered by the law, declared Mir. Martin in his state" ment.
 copy of the opinion has been forwarded by the president to the presidents of all Southern AssOcia- ton clubs as well as to Secretary arreII of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues for transmission to the presidents of all existing leagues in organized baseball.

 No game is moro fascinating than trying to ~beat the ponies" none more impossible. A man may succeed for year. for two years. perhaps. but in the end they are. losers
 Tod Sloan. immortal as Jockey and a man who has known the game for thirty years as few men ever has known it. says:
 'It can't be done."
 And if ever there was man wno should know it's that very same Sloan, who revolutionized jockeyship and was for years the king of piloting kings. It's twenty years since Sloan has rode a race, but the memory of Sloan's glory remains ever green.
 saThe more you know about horses. the less you know declares Sloan. @<Men who begin to play the horses with indifferent luck at first think the reason is that they don't know enough z and then, complete Knowledge of horses and their ways and all the dope they < go out and bet, and lose more than ever before.
 sNo man was ever smart enough to < win money consistently betting on the horses"
 HARD LUCK Two years ago Sloan went 10 sara toga and stayed there for the full race v meeting. His acquaintanceship was rich with owners. trainers and jockeys And if ever a man knew horses. their wavs and eccentricities, Sloan is that man.
 Armed with all his splendid knowl- edge of horses, possessed of the sheer est tips that owners and trainers could give him, Sloan bet from $500 to $1,0oO a day each day of the entire twenty efght-day meeting.
