Cough RemedyMother
Gave Us Still Best
Pine Tar and Honey Beat
ALI Modern Drugs

In thousands of families it has
been the custom for many years to
keep pine tar and honey always on
hand for coughs, chest colds, bron-
chitis, SpaSmodic Group, and throat
irritations. Our mothers knew that
it was good, that it often broke up
the worst cough in "a hours, and
that it could be given to young and
old alike, as it contains no mar
cotics or harmful drugs.
And now we are told that in spite
of modern medical discoveries there
is still no better or quicker cough
quickly 1oosens and removes the
phlegm and congestion that cause the
coughing, also healing soreness.
while the honey not only gives a
pleasant taste, but helps soothe irri-
tation.
The original compound, made up
many years ago and used by mil
lions of people, was DR.. Bells Pine
Tar Honey. This is scientifically
composed Of just the right proper
lions of pine tar, honey and other
quick acting, healing ingredients
which the best doctors have found
to aid in quick relief. IF you want
the original and the best, be sure

Prohibition by Paddock

OF these three big features having
a stimulating effect upon business, it
would seem as if the weight of evil
dence leans to the belief that the
seven months advance in wheat prices
cut the most effective figure. Dollar,
or dollar and a half or two-dollar
wheat is something which probably
the average American understands
better than he does exchange rates
or the rise or fall of so-called peo-
ple's governments. That this advance
in wheat did a great deal to heal the
scars of past speculation or of over
banking in the northwest and other
sections is now conceded. That it
powerfully aided the party in power
seems no less certain. That the high
wheat price contains some elements
of danger for the future if it results
in another expansion in wheat areas
seems just as true, but that it helped
greatly in pulling large part of the
western country out of a very bad
economic situation inherited from
high war and postwar prices is be-
yond question, even if the reports in
dicate, as they do, that that section
of the country is taking it's good for
tune calmly and paying it's debts,
while buying rather carefully of new
merchandise.
Looking Forward
Emerging from a period of irregular,
in most cases disappointing, trade and
industry year of only fair volume
as whole in fact-and standing out
most prominently when the future is
under discussion, is the markedly op-
timistic feeling bred of the excellent
rally shown from the depression of
the mid-year of 1924 Seldom, if ever
at this season, has confidence as to
the future been so manifest, and TAX

ing things by and large, rarely has
the evidently excellent progress made
in the line of recuperation and repair
seemed to furnish better foundation
for this confidence. In fact, consid-
ering the almost uniformly favorable
feeling at the Threshold of 1925, the
question naturally presents itself
whether there is not in this very op-
seen in such roseate light that some
disappointment is possible, if not in
deed probable. 1t would be inexpedi-
ent not to recall that there are still
some problems to be met and solved,
even if the exchange situation, which
has such close bearing upon our
export trade, has been partically
mended. 1t needs to be remembered
that some ''fretful realms" may,
metaphorically speaking, throw a
wrench into the machinery. Also, the
matter of high costs of all business
has certainly not been settled salts
factorily to all concerned, and if we
are to get foreign trade outlet for
other things than grain and cotton,
particularly our surplus production of
manufactured goods, the problem of
prices must still be met This trouble
will also be encountered when our
business men go out to get domestic
trade after a year when piece-meal
buying was exalted to the extent it
was. 1t is a hopeful augury that the
iron and steel industry, often a very
good barometer of trade, has almost
full quarters capacity sold ahead,
and it is an additional comfort that
the country's grain-growing farmers
have had good year after several
very poor ones. Despite predictions
of decline in building, there seems
to have been an immense arrearage

of work carried over into the new
year. The railroads promise to be free

favorable weather arrives in the
spring. All in all, the prospect for
the half year to come seems very
good. Beyond this the careful may
hesitate to predict, pending a clearer
view of foreign and domestic happen
