When Your Cough
Hangs On, Mix
This at Home

The best cough remedy that money
could buy, can easily be mixed at home.
1t saves money and gives you the most
reliable, luick-acting medicine you ever
used. The way it takes hold of stub
born coughs and chest colds, giving
immediate relief, is astonishing.
Any druggist can supply you with
2h ounces of Pinex. Pour this into O
pint bottle, and fill up with plain gran
ulated sugar syrup or strained honey.
It's no trouble at all to mix, and when
you once use it, you will never be with
out it. Keeps perfectly and tastes
good-children really like it.
1t is surprising how quickly this
lOosens the germ-laden phlegm, and
so0thes and heals the inflamed menu
branes. At the same time, part Of
the medicine is absorbed into, the
blood, where it acts directly on the
bronchial tubes, and helps the system
throw of the whole trouble. Even
those severe coughs which follow cold
epidemics, are promptly ended.
Pinex is a highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent Of creosote, In
a refined, palatable form. Nothing
known in medicine is more helpful in
cases of severe coughs, chest colds and
bronchial troubles.
Do not accept substitute for Pinex.
It is guaranteed to give prompt relief
or money refunded.

The growing number of books
being published on food. nntri-
ton and diet shows the increas-

on these subjects. Today the

an eye to the health side Of 1t.
Fruit has come to the fore
and no meal is complete with
out some fruit, whether served
raw, steWed or baked. One Of
the fruits that has gradually
come into It's own is the trop-

possible that this fruit that

Colossal, rocky walls, sep
arated by a terrifying gorge,
swept about and above them.
They could look up 1000 feet to
these towering precipices; they
could look down 5000 more to
the plunging abyss.
The plateau rose like an
exiled thing between the can
yon's floor and its sheer, over
hanging walls. And here, on its
flat, forbidding aloneness, the
little plane and its four dis
traught occupants were landed.
In a numb, icy despair, Pat
folded the child in her arms.
She murmured, Hush, hush!
We're all right now" and
closed her eyes against the
vast, thronging shadows troop
ing from the abyss. These
shadows took on dark, titanic
forms. They strobe in mass
formation over the canyon
walls, giving it's huge, temple
like structure frightening
aspect. They were gods of
desolation prowling through
elemental ruins.
The four humans who had
strayed into their cavernous
arches were of no more i'm
port than four pebbles dropped
by a forgotten wind.
Whatever fate the desperate
men had planned for Pat and

chill, unacceptable doom.

In a tone whose low cacess

Plainville. Nov. 1-Manager John s. P. Glackin of the Strand theater has invented a machine for the re- cording of talking motion pictures, it was announced today by George Le Witt, proprietor of the theater. MT.

 Horse, Horse!
 Local residents know him as "John," for he is familiar figure in the precincts of Berlin. Last night it was raining and muddy and there were ghosts around. This did not bother John at all, not even when the rain had soaked his cig- arette and made it just a slightly twisted, very wet mass of paper and tobacco. He did not mind the oc- casional ghosts that passed near him, nor the splashing autos that veered sharply out of his way as ne walked back and forth across the street He was looking for his horse and he did not care who knew it.
 The horse had strayed-he had heard it's hoof beats fade away in the distance and had run out of the house with only a sweater and his old slouch hat as protection against the rain-and a big stick as protection against the ghosts. He thought they might have caused his horse to run away. John walked hack and fortb h tbroupt tbo ,,,,d5,. fields and over the trafficked roads. muttering in his native tongue and swinging his stick viciously at i'm aginary ghosts.

 The hopes of the town officials that the observance of Halloween would be quiet and orderly were rudely shattered last evening when the town was the scene of one of the widest celebrations in years. Reports of property damage came from all sections of the town, the climax being reached when two- story wooden structure on Higgins avenue in Mountain View was con- pletely destroyed by fire. Hallow- cen celebrators are suspected as being the cause of the blaze.
 The structure, which was owned by Seeley 6 Nell, was burned to the ground before the firemen. ar rived and was total loss. The blaze was seen all over the town and lit up the sky for miles. All of the apparatus responded to the building was too far gone to be saved. Fire Chief Edward P.

Later developments, how ever, tended to indicate that the fire had been set by a gang of boys celebrating Halloween,
 Trouble on Outskirts
 Constable George Schubert stated this morning that he had received large number of complaints from residents living on the outskirts of the town concerning damage that had been done to their property. The center of the town, which was policed by the constables, witnessed very little trouble outside of few mischievous pranks. However. the residents on the outskirts suffered heavily and were very indignant over the actions of the celebrators.
 Practically every section around the outskirts reported heavy damage and demanded police action. The celebrators were not content with enjoying harmless pranks but smashed electric lights, tore down mail boxes. broke door bells on houses and ripped down fences and gates.
 Parents Held Responsible
 The police are Working on the complaints and stated today that the parents of the children respon- sible for the damages will be held liable. The names of the boys in- volved in most of the cases are known by the police and, unless pay ment is made to the people who suffered at the hands of the boys, police action will be taken and the boys and their parents brought into court. The town officials and the constables are indignant over the actions of the boys on the outskirts Of the town and are determined to see that due remuneration is made to the residents who suffered. The electric lights on Cook street were smashed by celebrators who disap- peared before the police arrived.
