Famous Old Recipe for Cough Syrup Easily and cheapiy made at home. but 1t heats them all for
 quick results.

Thousands of housewives have found that they can save two-thirds of the money usually spent for cough prepara- tions, by using the wellknown 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.
 Get 21a ounces of Pinex from any druggist, pour it into 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 . family & long time.
 It's truly astonishing how quickly 1t 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, spasmodic croup. hoarssness or 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.
 Avoid disappointment bv asking your druggist for "21s ounces of Pinex" with full directions and don't accept anything else. Guaranteed to give absolute satis- faction or money promptly refunded. The Pinex Co. Ft Wayne, Ind.

grinning. The tree was behind him, i. She couldn't run home. Home was too far away. So she crouched down, with her tail puffed up almost as big as a coon's and never took her eyes of her tormentor.
 ''I've got her now" Tommy Fox told himself sleefully. And ho moved forward.
 Miss Kitty Cat did not stir except to wave her tail slightly from side to sidos
 'I'll let him have 1t when he comes near enough" she muttered.
 Did you speak, madam" Tommy asked her sweetly.
 Miss Katy did not answer.
 Wont mother he pleased when I bring this home!" Tommy thought. And then he leaped at Miss Kitty Cat.
 The next moment, something hot seemed to burn his nose. He turned his face; and something stung him on one cheek. He shut his eyes; was there d swarm of hornets settling on his head?
 No! It was Miss Kitty Cats sharp claws that jabbed him here and iabbed him there. until all at once Tommy Fox remembered what his mother had told him: "If you meet some stranger, hurry away"

meadow mice--one for each of us!'' It was no wonder that Tommy Fox began to feel we'll pleased with him. self It was no wonder that he thought he was clever enough to do good deal as he wished. So he promptly forgot almost everything his mother had told him about being careful when he was hunting in the meadow.
 On the fourth day that he hunted alone, he came upon another hunter. This person, like him, had come to the meadow to catch mice. But this person had not come from the hill side that reached up toward the mountain. This person lived in the farmhouse. Her name was Miss Kitty Cat.
 Tommy Fox spied her as she was creeping up on mouse. She did not see him.
 "Oh, ho!" said he, very softly, to himself. "Oh. ho! ho! ho!" Now, if Tommy had minded his mother he would have siunk off behind the fence and hurried home at once. But instead of running away from Miss Kitty Cat he fiattened himself down in the tall grass and stole nearer to her.
 T don't know who this is" he thought. But she's certainly much more worth while catching than a little mousse"
 Suddenly something made Miss Kitty Cat turn her head. Perhaps it was only tho rustic of a blade of grass. Anyhow, she looked around, to find herself staring straight at a lanky red ruffian, who looked-to her eyes---very much like dog.
 Miss Kitty Cat was not afraid of dogs. Old dog Spot, who lived at the farmhouse, could have told you that. Still, she liked to keep a good distance away from them, unless she happened to have a family of young kittens. Then Miss Kitty would walk right up to any dog that ever lived, and tell him he'd better move on where there was more room for him. But kittens or no kittens when Miss Kitty found herself cornered by q dog she knew how to make that dog. very unhappy Old dog Spot could have told you that, too.
 Miss Kitty Cat hadn't glared long at Tommy Fox before he sprang up and began to chase her.
 She ran. And since he was be- tween her and the farmhouse, she ran on into the meadow.
 Tommy saw what she was about. She was making for a lone tree which grew beside the brook. And he promptly began a big circle in order to head her off.
 He was faster runner than Miss Kitty. In few minutes she came to halt. Tommy Fox faced her.

CHEESE
BY BERTHA F. SHAPLEIGH Of Columbia University

Of Columbia University
 Cheese is one of the most useful food materials, as it is always ob- made at home if one has large quantity of milk.
 What is known as American, or factory or store" cheese, is differ ent according to methods of making, and also varies according to age. An old cheese has bite" and usually can be grated. This cheese makes a better ''rarebit," and is the best for macaroni, spaghetti and "au gratin' dishes.
 The soft, mild cheese may be used for sandwiches or for dishes calling for milk, the chese usually melting smoothly. For the soup and for many of the finest sauces nothing equals the Italian, Parmesan or Ro- man cheese. The Swiss cheese, hay- ing the large holes, is excellent for cheese sandwiches.
 The cheese which is probab bly, used the most for salads and is chosen ss an after-dinner cheese Is the Neuf- chatel, or cream, or cottage cheese, made from fresh or sour milk.
 Many persons prefer strong cheese with crackers, salad or coffee, and choose a Club, Roauefort or Con- gonzola. tho last two being imported cheeses. Old Stilton (Enslish) chese is also used as a dinner cheese, Then we have the pineappIs cheese, and the Edsm or Dutch cheesa These are whole and one takes piece out with cheese scoop.
