Ends Stubborn Coughs
il, q Hurry
TT real effectiveness. this old
ome-made remedy has no equal. :
Easily and cheaply prepared.


You'll never know how quickly q
bad cough can be conquered, until you
try this famous old home made rem.
cdy. Anyone who has coughed all
day and all night, will say that the
immediate relief given is almost like
magic. 1t is very easily prepared,
and there is nothing better for coughs.
Into a pint bottle, put 2Hs ounces
of Pinex: then add plain graduated
sugar syrup to make full pint. Or
you can use clarified molasses, honey,
or corn syrup. instead of sugar syrup.
Either way, the full pint saves about
two-thirds of the money usually
spent for cough preparations, and
gives you a more positive, effective
remedy. 1t keeps perfectly, and
tastes pleasant--children like it.
You can feel this take hold instantly,
soothing and healing the membranes
in all the air passages. 1t promptly
loosens a dry, tight cough, and soon
you will notice the phlegm thin out
and disappear. A days use will usually
break up an ordinary throat or chest
cold. and it is also splendid for bron.
chitis, Group, hoarseness, and bron.
chial asthma.
Pinex is a most valuable concen-
trated compound of genuine Norway
pine extract. the most reliable REM
edy for throat and chest ailments.
To avoid disappointment, ask your
druggist for "2h ounces of Pinex"
with directions and don't accept any.

lutte satisfaction or money refunded.

are attractive rooms but far too in
frequent. There Is often a striking
contrast between the elementary
rooms and the high school rooms.
Most corridors are unattractive but
might be made pleasing with a lit
tie effort. They should extend a
pleasing welcome to all who come.
Scholarship Standards. I predict
that number of schools will be
under criticism because Of college
reports OF failures of first year stu
dents. Your pupils, their parents and
acquainted with the facts, among
which are these:
81. The colleges are obliged to
limit attendance and are doing SO by
selection and elimination. They are
amply justified in selecting and re-
tanning the best for the training Of
fered.
"2. The first essential for success
in college is native mental ability.
Professor Wood Of Columbia says
THE lower limit Of Intellectual pow
ers competent to survive present
standards in American and English
colleges is not below the fifteenth
and few succeed below the tenth.
over this item the school has slight,
if any. control.
''3. A brilliant high school record
is OF itself not a guarantee to sue
cess. Well fixed habits of hard
work, serious purpose, persistency,
and moral fiber are fundamental.
They cannot be established by the
school alone. The home is directly
responsible; the community in a
slightly less degree. The three
must cooperate heartily and ener-
getically.
Il. The certificate of the school
is q guarantee that so far as the
school has gone the pupil should be
able to do college work. 1t cannot
assume responsibility for the effects
OF the new environment. The col
lege has an obligation which is
recognized by more and more insti-
tutions.
-. The high school has other
and greater tasks than the special
lied preparation now demanded for
college.
&C. The standards of the school
cannot be measured by the failure of
one or even several students in COL
lege until all the facts are known
intelligence scores. high school rec
ords, habits-high school and col
legc.
This is not defence nor a side
stepping OF responsibility, it is the
statement of an old problem in a
now sctting-the setting of crowd
