Park Cars T1vo Feet
From Curb In Small
Hours To Be Rule

From the number OF persons who
have had To be told regarding the
matter it seems that many do not
know that between / and Q o'clock
a. m. they should not park their car
at a smaller distance than two feet
from the curb after the sweeper has
passed that section of the street. The
ordinance really calls for no parking
whatever but a liberal Interpretation
OF It by the police department per
mits persons with cars to leave them
IL the sweeper has cleaned the por-
ton of tho street on which tho car is
parked. However. men with brooms
sometimes follow the sweeper and for
this reason the two-foot parking rule
Is carried out.
A local business man appeared In
court last night and paid a fine OF IS

Makes a Family Supply
of Cough Remedy
Really better than ready-nnade
cough syrups, and saves about Sc.
Easily and quickly prepared.

If you combined the curative prop
critics of every known "ready- made"
cough remedy, you probably could
not get as much real curative power
as there is in this simple homemade
IN few minutes.
Get from any druggist 2K ounces
of Pinex, pour it into pint bottle
and fill the bottle with syrup, using
either plain graduated sugar syrup,
clarified molasses. honey, or corn
syrup, as desired. The result is a
full pint of really better cough syrup
than you could buy ready-made for
three times the money. Tastes pleas
ant and never spoils.
This Pinex and Syrup preparation
gets right at the cause of cough and
gives almost immediate relief. IL
loosens the phlegm, stops the nasty
throat tickle and heals the sore, irri-
tated membranes so gently and easily
that it is really astonishing.
A days use will usually overcome
the ordinary cough and for bronchitis,
Group, hoarseness and bronchial asth-
ma, there is nothing better.
Pinex is most valuable concen-
trated compound of genuine Norway
pine extract, and has been used for
generations to break severe coughs.
To avoid disappointment, ask your
druggist for "2la ounces of Pinex"
with full directions, and don't accept
anything else. Guaranteed to give
absolute satisfaction or money
promptly refunded. The Pinex Co.,

WATER COMPANY TO
TAKE OVER POW Err
PLANT AT ALBERTV!LLE

ALBERTVILLE, Ala, Feb. 10,
Especial. IA transaction of unusual
interest and which will doubtless
result in a removal of tremendous
thandicap to Albertville it is under
stood has recently been consumed
between the town council and the
Alabama Water company, already
operating nine other similar plants
in Alabama,
Several years ago, the citizens
voted bond issues and installed
water works and an electric light
plant. The municipality operated
these plants for Il or 10 years, but
for the past few years they have
given continual trouble and large
portion of the time the residents
have had inadequate service and in
sufficient water supply, besides,
their operation has been a heavy
expense and resulted in actual loss
to the town.
Inability to furnish electric power
or sufficient water supply has de-
prived the town of several small
industries desiring to locate here.
The bonded indebtedness of the town
is something like $4,000 which, 1t is
stated, is 10 be assumed or lifted
by the Alabama Water company, a
new and more attractive schedule of
water rates for customers put into
operation and the plants made to
function to the satisfaction of the
people,
1t is understood that the company
is to begin actual operation March /.
under tentative arrangement, pend
ing the calling of an election for
the purpose of complying with legal
requirements authorizing the sale OF
the plants.
Doubtless a sanitary sewerage
system will be installed in short
time after election ratifying the
sale to the new company, thereby
giving Albertv,lle all the accomoda-
tons of a small city. The country
around the town is so thiclSly settled
the Alabama Water company con-
template extensions OF the electric
lighting system to accommodate
would-be patrons of the plant.
The election will be probably be
held within the next six weeks. and
will be carried almost solidly for the
sale. according to the opinion of
leading citizens. The Civitan club
recently appointed committee to
solve the water problem for the
town, and on the committee were
those who were already negotiattng
this transaction, prominent among
whom was Thomas Il. Orr, and some
of the town authorities.
