AMERICANS SUPREME AS BEST RIFLEMEN
 IN WORLD

Washington, Oct. 6-The American man and the American rifle today are the supreme shooting combination of the world.
 The Americans general superiority has hitherto been conceded by most
 nations, although the Swiss, which like the Americans are a nation of rifiemen,' hve been close contend CTS and have held certain world records which even the Americans could not capture.
 Recent rife matches, however, es-
 tablish the American shooting man as the champion rifleman of the world. Like Swi> >zerland, America contains
 thousands of shooting clubs, encour- aged by the government. and by the government supplied with the regular army rifle.
 It took the recent series of shoot ing matches over the country, how ever, to show to advantage the re-
 markable skill of some American rif1emen- During one match, for in- stance. a worlds record was hung up by Sergeant Thomas B. Crawley, a Marine, who shot 176 bullseyes in succession at 500 yards. This is be- lieved by rifle experts to be a record Another remarkable record was made during the Wimbledon match, where another Marine, Sergeant J. W. Ad- | kins, rang up 75 consecutive bulls eyes at 1000 yards. He had previously 1 made 70 bullseyes at the distance Al HOO yards Sergeant Thomas P. | Jones, also Marine, made 66 bulls l eyes successively, while at 1900 yards | a record of Al shots was made.

.H00CH HOUNDS
 CRACK JAIL TO
 GET MARKINGS"

West Frankfort. H., Oct. 6-You may lock up the bootlegger and moonshiner and his goods. but they'll get their liquor still.
 This is what local auth horities said as they scratched their heads one morning when they arose and saw by the light of the rising sun that some one had broken into the jail during the night or early morning and re- moved a quantity of white mule to- gether with five stills. This had been held as evidence against a band of bootleggers.
 The liquor and the stills were se- cluded in such a place and were un- der such strong locks that the thought of outsiders stealing the evil dence never once entered the minds of the authorities. Perplexing, isn't it, they say, for this is what they had to do.
 The liquor and stills were stored in one of the cells which was secured with a Yale lock. A log chain was placed through the bars of the door and cell clamped fast to the lock. On the outside of the jail was the 'fbur- glar proof lock, which the Council had passed upon as one that would withstand the efforts of all to open within or without.
 All keys Ito this outer lock have been accounted for and all that re- mains to be solved is how they broke into the jail.

A Stubborn Cough LoOse11s Rigfaf Up This home-made remedy is q won der for quick results. Easily
 and cheaply made.

Here is homemade syrup which mil lions of people have found to be the most dependable means. of breaking up stubborn coughs. It is cheap and simple, but very prompt in action. Under its healing, soothing influence, chest sore ness goes, phlegm loosens, breathing be, comes easier, tickling in throat stops and you get a good nights restful sleep. The usual throat and chest colds are con quered by 1t in 24 hours or less. Nothing better for bronchitis, hoarseness, croup, throat tickle, bronchial asthma or win ter coughs.
 To make this splendid cough syrup, pour 2h ounces of PineX into a pint bottle and fill the bottle with plain granulated sugar syrup and shake thor oughly. If you prefer, use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either way, you get a full pint-a family supply-of much better cough syrup than you could buy ready-made for three times the money. Keeps perfectly and children love its pleasant taste.
 say Pinex is 8 special and highly concen- trated compound of genuine Norway pine extract, known the world over for its prompt healing effect upon the mem- branes.
 To avoid disappointment ask your druggist for 21A ounces of Pinex' with full directions. and don't accept any thing else. Guaranteed to give absolute satisfaction or money promptly re- funded. The Pinex Co.,, Ft. Wayne, Ind.
