To End aCOugh
In Hurry, Mix
This at Home

To end a stubborn cough quickly, it
Is important to soothe and heal the in
famed membranes, get rid of the germs
and also to aid the system inwardly to
help throw off the trouble.
For these purposes, here is a home
made medicine, far better than anything
you could buy at 3 times the cost. From
any druggist, get 2113 ounces of Pinex.
Pour this into a pint bottle, and add
plain granulated sugar syrup or strained
honey to fill up the pint. This takes
but moment, and makes a remedy SO
effective that you will never do with
out, once you have used it. Keeps per-
tectly, and children like it.
This simple remedy does three neces-
gary things. First, it loOsens the germ
laden phlegm. Second, it soothes away
the Inflammation. Third, it is absorbed
into the blood, where it acts directly
on the bronchial tubes. This explains
why it brings such quick relief, even
in the obstinate bronchial coughs
which follow cold epidemics.
Pinex is a highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent of creosOte, in
a refined, palatable form, and known
as one of the greatest healing agents
for severe coughs, chest colds and
bronchial troubles.
Do not accept a substitute for Pinex.
It is guaranteed to give prompt relief
or money refunded.

ISSAQUAH VALLEY ENTERTAINS
KING COUNTY POMONA GRANGE

Thursday, March 10, Issaquah
Grange entertained King County Po-
mona Grange.
King county agent, A. E. Lovett, the
speaker for the afternoon, gave a very
interesting talk on 1.-THE Farm Prob
lens Facing Farmers Today Among
other interesting facts brought out was
the fact that there were 100000 more
people on farms the first of this year
than there were last year, and that
regardless of the prevailing low prices
of dairy products there was an in
crease in the number OF milk COWS
this year over last year.
Mr.. Lovett stressed rigid farm ac-
counting system as one of the most
important factors in enabling the
farmer to increase his profits and
said that his office and himself were
highly DESTROYS of cooperating with
any farmer who wishes to put his
farm problems. In the age old war
OF the survival of the fittest good
breeding and good accounting must
be practiced by those who expect to
continue in business. at takes more
brains and business acumen to make
success of farming than it does in
almost any other line of business, y
concluded Mr.. Lovett.
A Question Box provided by the
Worthy Lecturer was well filled with
knotty farm problems which the
county agent answered in very well
informed manner.
The most vital of the matters taken
up during the business session was
that of taxation. A copy of the reso-
luton adopted on this question ap-
pears elsewhere in this paper.
A rising vote of thanks was given
the host grange for their hospitality.
Judging from the meals served the
drought has missed Issaquah Valley
completely but it did seem that the
visiting members had come from less
fortunate districts
In the evening II new members
were given the fifth degree by the
Issaquah drill team in their usual able
manner. In appreciation and recog-
milton of their good work this drill
team has been designated by Pomona
as the official King county Pomona
drill team.
The degree work was followed by an
interesting debate: Resolved, that
the country boy has more educational
advantages than the city boy which
was won by the affirmative. The
Pomona band was on hand as usual
to pep up the program.

WORSE THAN WAR!

During 10 months of the World
War, 50510 members of the American
Expeditionary Force were killed in ac-
ton or died of wounds.
During the 10 months preceding
January, 1881, $4,000 people were killed
in automobile accidents in this coun-
try.
According to survey by the Travel
ers Insurance Company; the leading
cause OF accidents in 1880 was failure
to give right of way, which accounted
for Is per cent of deaths and 3l.5 per
cent of injuries. Second was excessive
speed, which was responsible for 81
per cent of all accidents, and third,
driving on the wrong side of the road,
which totaled l6 per cent.
Higher speed is natural result Of
improved roads and cars. But the
other two primary causes of accidents
which together accounted for 81 per
cent of deaths and ATT per cent of
injuries-amount to simple ignorance,
recklessness or carelessness. They
show improper training on the part of
the motorist, coupled with inadequate
enforcement of traffic laws. That
such accidents could be at least par
TALLY curbed by examining and licens-
ing laws, and by adequate enforcement
of modernized traffic codes, is well
within the limits Of plausibility.
Every year complete and detailed
resumes of the previous years accident
record are prepared. Study of them
should show what enforcement is
needed, what can be accomplished A
few states, In period of rising
hazards, have managed to appreciably
decrease accidents within their bord-
ers. All other states can do the same.
Our want ads bring results.
