Millions of housewives have found that, by mixing their own cough medi- cine, they get purer, more elective remedy. They use recipe. which costs about one.fourth as much az ready made medicine, but which really has no equal for breaking up obstinate coughs.
 From any druggist, get 21a ounces of Pinex. Pour this into pint bottle, and add granulated sugar syrup to i'll up the pint. The syrup Is easily made with 2 cups sugar and one cup water. stirred few moments until dissolved. No cooking needed. It's no trouble at all, and makes the most effective remedy that money could buy. Keeps perfectly, and children love its taste.
 Its quick action in loosening the phlegm, clearing the air passages, and soothing away tho inflammation, has caused 1t to be used in more homes than any other cough remedy.
 Pinex is a highly concentrated com pound of Norway Pine, famous for its healing effect on throat membranes. It Is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded.

THRILLS MARK
PIN TOURNEY
~ = Z 33::

The annual Rosslyn Inter

providing many exciting moments.
Dorothy Ellis has practically
cinched the ladies' singles crown

had to step to beat out Audrey
Costello with SAT, and Betty

liantly last night and pounded out
games of 606, 624 and 612, for an

They'd better not wager any
money on it, those who think
they can see the big bowl only
half-baked by fight time.
1t is not the intention of the
Garden forces to try to complete
the bowl in all it's details by
June Is, the date now set for
the championship battle between
Max and Jack.
In the first place, let the doubt
full Thomas get this into their
minds. The bowl will be a fast
job because of its peculiar con-
struction.
The vast plot will be followed
out in the center by steam shovels
and the dirt packed and banked
in a slope around he edges un-
tilt he whole thing will become a
great natural bowl. The bed of
the bowl will be flat for track
and football purposes.
Use Asphalt
The banked surfaces will be
covered with asphalt not con-
crete, and the wooden seats will
be set around on top of the
asphalt. On the playing field
on fight nights steel framework
will be set in place on the flat,
each successive row of
seats as is done at the ends of
the arena in Madison Square
Garden.
One hundred men were at work
on excavation today.
Three Shifts
Three shifts of men, working
night and day, will rush the work
on the bowl so that capacity of
10000, if there will be that many
at the bout, can be accommo-
dated.
The vast seating capacity
means that the fan is going to
get break. At an average of
So a seat with the top price being
S5.74, the Garden could take in

and Canzoneri. They won't have
to hit the price ceiling at all.
