HoD to Make Pine
Cough Syrup at Homo
Has. no equal for prompt resnIts.
Takes but n moment to prepare,
and saves you about 81.


Pine is used in nearly all prcscrip.
tions and remedies for coughs. The
reason is that pine contains several
elements that have remarkable
effect in soothing and healing the
membranes OF the throat and chest.
Pine cough syrups are combinations
Of pine and syrup. The "ayrup" part
Is usually plain sugar syrup.
To make the best pine cough remedy
that money can buy, put 2H ounces
OF PineX in pint bottle, and all up
with homemade sugar syrup, Or
you can use clarified molasscs, honey,
or corn syrup, instead OF sugar syrup.
Either way, you make full pint

Meat-Eating Americans

Despite the efforts of vegetarian cults and Of the long
we Americans ate 1897 pounds of meat per capita last
year, the highest per capita average since 1911
These figures do not include game or domestic fowl but
only what is popularity designated as Butchers meat"
The chief diet continues to be beef and pork
why the tremendous meat consumption in this country
lar greater than that of any other in the world?
First detec experts tell u.s. because no food in the
world is more easily or quickly dgesed than beef steak
while the great and continuous increase in the popularity
OF the sandwich accounts for part Of the big increase
in pork consumption.
But doubtless the chief reason is that meat while more
expensive is more easily prepared than substitutes and
seems to satisfy hunger more quickly And the average
American does not propose TO die in debt to his stomach
and his idea Of good meal is still thick beef steak and
mighty few trimmings.

The Amazing County Ferries

The disclosure that Capt. Anderson is making large
profits eNaety how large yet to be determined out Of the
county ferries is not valid argument against public own

1t is merely proof of the long cherished conviction Of
East Side residents that something very very rotten
about the whole ferry episode Of the last two or three
years.
With the same man in charge the boats in opera

Eight Accused Of Part
In Operations in Adj
dihon to Geo. Max
well, Evidence Shows.

NEW YORK, May 12.-
The grand jury which has in
dicted George Maxwell, pres
ident of the American Society
of Composers, Authors and
Publishers, for sending OBJ
scene misslves through the malls.
has evidence against eight other
prominent members of a poison pen
clique which is alleged to have vic
timized 40 wealthy society people
here. in Philadelphia. Buffalo, Pitts
burgh, and other cities. District At
torney Blanton disclosed today.
Eighty OF the alleged victims all
ready nave testified before the grand
jury. which is still in session. Mr..
Blanton revealed that their state-
ments had led to the u~ncovering OF
147 poison pen letters and to the fact
that nine well known families had
been broken up. A man and a wo-
man had died shortly after receiving
vicious misslves. and another womaa
a gone insane.
Maxwen's attorney here announced
that Maxwell had cabled from EUROPE
n denial of charges. Maxwell himself
received several obscene letters from
the clique said the attorneys. He
would have to hasten home to face
his accusers.
Allan A. Ryan. the nnancier. whose
wife was named in letters resulting
in the grand jury disclosure declared
today h also would return from
Europe n hat he would prosecute
the writer of the letters II II took his
entire fortune.
Among disclosures made by Mr..
Blanton were that a band of anony-
nous letter writer's had been prcying
upon prominent people in this and
other cities since 1914 and that tho
recipient OF letters included the late
Enrico Cnruso. the Countess OF Santa
Eulalia, who was the widow of John
u. Stetson OF Philadelphia; John
Drew. the actor. and Albert GaIlatin.
banker. Divorce cases involving per-
sons not named by the district attor~
ney now arc pending in tho courts.
he said. =
The poison pen ciique's method. ac-
cording to the authorities. was to
send letters to middle aged women.
e~ndeayoring to entice them into af-
fairs with members OF tho GROUP.
After several months. the writerH
would e letters to the husbands.
brothers or other male relatives of
the m to whom they had
written.
Members OF the society which Mar
well headed say It is inconceivable
that he could have been connected
with such a plot.
The letters hat Mr.. Ryan turned
over to the authorities were received
by Mrs. Ryan more than q month
ago. All were typewritten and uns
signed. but in the upper left corner
OF each were typed the names IND
addresses OF several bankers and club
men, rho characters made by n
