Not the least of Chicago's as

is hitting above his average right

It is a tribute to the indomitable
courage of the Detroit Tigers that
they are third today. Weeks ago,
Mickey Cochrane, their leader was
struck down by a pitched ball.
Just a few days ago Hayworth was
sent out of action under the i'm
pact of a ball hurled by Buck
Newsom, then pitching for Boston.
AS their key men fell before the
hammer strokes of i'll luck, the re-
naming Tigers caught up the
torch and carried on the fight.
Not only was Cochrane sent into
blighty for the season if not for
all time, but Charley Gehringer,
master of contemporary second
basemen, was out of action for a
protracted period. 1t makes tough

Best Remedy for
Coughs is Easily
Mixed at Home
Needs No COOKING
Big Saving,

(SSNc W OOOAhk' OiS odViuSs
To get the quickest relief from coughs
due to colds, mix your own remedy at
home. Once tried, you'll never use any
other kind of cough medicine, and it's
80 simple and easy.
First, make syrup by stirring 2
cups granulated sugar and one cup of
water a few moments, until dissolved.
A child could do it. No cooking needed.
Then get 232 ounces of Pinex from
any druggist. This is a concentrated
compound of Norway Pine, famous for
its prompt action on throat and bron-
chial membranes.
Put the Pinex into a pint bottle, and
add your syrup. Thus you make a full
pint of really better medicine than you
could buy ready-made for four times
the money. It never spoils, and chill
dren love it's pleasant taste.
And for quick. blessed relief, it has
no equal. You can feel it penetrating
the air passages in a way that means
business. 1t loosens the phlegm, sootbes
the infamed membranes, and eases the
soreness. Thus it makes breathing
easy, and let's you get restful sleep. o
Just try it, and if not pleased,
your money will be refunded. &

to the hospital where it was adj
ministered.
The first results that could be
registered by DR.. Joseph G. Ham
ilton, and DR.. Robert S. Stone of
the divisions Of medicine and
roentgenology, were that there is
no toxic reaction from the radio
sodium as there is from the appli-
cation of radium that, it remains

apparently is all eliminated.

The clinical experiments, how
ever, while just beginning, have
caused University authorities to
feel justified in spending $780,
OO0 on the new machine.
With the new apparatus it will
be possible to develop $4,000, 900
volts for the bombardment and
breaking up of atoms, and with
the use of alpha particles, 5000
900 volts.
This high voltage fires the atoms
of one elemnet into the nuclei of
others, changing completely their
character and producing new ele-
ments.
The radio sodium, used for the
first time, is produced by the deu-
terOm bombardment in the CYCLIC
