Stubborn Cough
Quickly Ended by
Famous Recipe

Here is the famous old recipe which
millions of housewives have found to be
the most dependable means of break
ing up a stubborn, lingering cough. 1t
takes but a moment to prepare and
costs little, but it gives real relief even
for those dreaded coughs that usually
follow the 'hu."
From any druggist, get 2115 ounces of
Pinex. pour it into pint bottle and fill
the bottle with plain graduated sugar
syrup or strained honey. Thus you
make full pint of better remedy than
you could buy ready-made for three
times the cost. 1t never spoils and
tastes,so good that even children like it.
Not only does this simple mixture
soothe and heal the int1aned throat
membranes with surprising ease, but
also it is absorbed into the blood. and
acts directly upon the bronchial tubes,
thus aiding the whole system in throw
ing off the cough. 1t loosens the germ
laden phlegm and eases chest soreness
in way that is really astonishing.
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 distressing coughs, chest colds,
and bronchial troubles.
Do not accept a substitute for Pinex.
II is guaranteed to give prompt relief
or money refunded.

AIR MAIL BILL
Colonel to Appear Next
Monday Before House
Postal Committee.
BY KENNETH WATSON,
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3D.
Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh will
appear before the house postal af-
fairs committee next Monday to
urge immediate favorable action on
the revised Kelly foreign air mail
bill.
AS Monday will be the first time
Lindbergh has appeared before any
house committee since shortly after
his transatlantic flight nearly two
years ago, such a crowd is expected
that The hearing will be held in
the large caucus room at the house
office building.
Although the original Kelly bill,
which became law last spring, en-
powers the postmaster-general to
make contracts for transport of air
mail from the United States to for
eign countries, several amendments
are needed to make the law COM
prehenSive.
Comptroller General McCarl just
has ruled that under the original
bill it will not be possible to make
contracts for transportation of air
mail from foreign countries to the
United States.
MY amended bill remedies this
situation and clarifies several mi
nor defects" Representative Clyde
Kelly of Pennsylvania said today.
Among other things the revised
bill viii permit transportation of
air mail between possessions of the
United States; between our possess
sions and foreign nations; from
foreign countries to the United
States, and will authorize contracts
with air mail concerns, operating
in foreign nations, for exchange of
mails.
Immediately after the Monday
hearing, Lindbergh will leave Wash
iagton for Miami, Fla, for another
epochal fight. On Feb. 4 he is
scheduled to fly from Miami to
Cristobal, Canal Zone, which will
mark the entrance of the United
States into Central and South
American air mail activity.
