 quick results.

Thousands of housewives have found that they can save twothirds of the money usually spent for cough prepara- tions, by using the well-known old recipe for making cough syrup at home. It is simple and cheap but it has no equal for prompt results. It takes right hold of cough and gives immediate relief, usually stopping an ordinary cough in 24 hours or less.

 It's truly astonishing how quickly it acts, penetrating through every air passage of the throat and lungs-loos- ems and raises the phleGm, soothes and heals the membranes, and gradually but surely the annoying throat tickle and dreaded cough disappear entirely. Nothing better for bronchitis. spasmodlc croup, hoarseness CT bronchial asthma.
 Pinex is a special and highly concen- trated compound of genuine Norway pine extract, known the world over for its healing effect on the membranes.

President Harding and the Cabinet

ance with this purpose that the Ad-

tariff bill for duties on agricultural
products.
However, the leaders of agriculture
who will assemble here April II, which
is the date for the opening of the

much more far reaching than an
emergency tariff bill. Mr. Silver said
to-day that the farmers were anxious
to see comprehensive legislative pro-

some of them expressed an indication

"If the American people had taken

with tremendous applause.
IF all the money now being spent

A return to common sense all round, y

slung on her arm, and when he set her
down, bestowed final pat on the head
OF MISS Hiser that left her glowing with
pride
toward noon, as children and grown
ups passed into the grounds in a never
ending stream, it became difficult to find
sufficient space on which to roll eggs.
And besides, the attractive CANDY efrys
proved too much to resist for most chii-
drcn, who ate them and looked about
for more.
Ten-year-old Paul Mann personally
presented an egg to the President. Hc
climbed the low fence that separates
the lawn and Executive Offices and
gained the window OF the Presidents
room. Mr.. Harding turned to see Paul
rapping. on the window. The President
raised the window and accepted the epg.
which was decorated with Boy Scout
insignia. Other youngsters tried to
emulate Paul's feat, but the guardians
of the fence held after Paul had filtered
through.
The Marine Band gave a concert in
the afternoon. When it began to plav.
with the. sun shining and the gorgeous
trees and shrubbery of the White House
grounds in full bloom, the spirits of the
children were exubcrant.
Late in the afternoon the weather
changed abruptly, with hints of show
ers, and the children hurried home. The
grounds were closed at s o'clock, rather
the worse for wear.
