WILSON LEAGUE OF NATIONS WILL CONTINUE ISSUE Former President Tells Crowd Visiting His Homo of Pact’s Vitality. WASHINGTON, Jan. IC.—That the Wilson League of Nations will continue to be an issue In domestic politics appeared certain to observers here today as the result of a speech by former President Wilson to a throng of his admirers yesterday. It was Wilson’s first speech since his in 1919. y “There can be no doubt about the vitaiity of the League of Nations,” Wilson said to 5,000 persons who gathered in front of his home. They had come from a mass meeting at which a campaign for a $1,000,000 fund to perpetuate Wilson's ideals had bee started. “It will take care of itself," continuer Wilson. “I havo no apprehension or anxiety on that score. Those who do not regard It will have to look out for themselves. My only anxiety is that our people turn their L-ces in the right direction and move with irresistible lorce. I need hardly tell you that such a demonstration and such evidence of friendship make me very happy. I thank you very much for ail this. I do not deserve it, but I enjoy it.” The warning that “those who do not regard it will have to look for themselves,” coupled as it was with the hope that the American people will turn “in the right direction and move with irresistible force,” was, in the opinion ol practical politicians, taken to indicate clearly that a campaign for the league soon will be under way.

How to Make Pina I Cough Syrup at Home 3 i P* no eunl for prompt rwralt*. I Takes but a moment to prepare, I and saves )u about Cx!. | Pine is used in nearly all prescriptions and remedies for coughs. The reason is that pine contains several elements that have a remarkable effect in soothing and healing the membranes of the throat and chest. Pine cough syrups are combinations of pine and svrup. The “syrup” part is usually plain sugar syrup. To make the best pine eough remedy that money can buv, put 2% ounces of Pi net in a pint bottle, and 811 up with home-made sugar syrup. Or you can use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either way, you make a full pint—more than you can buy ready-made for three times the money. It is pure, good and tastes very pleasant. You can feel this take hold of a cough or cold in a way that means business. The cough mar be dry, hoarse and tight, or may be persistently loose from the formation of phlegm. The cause is the same-—in-flamed membranes—and this Pinex and Syrup combination will stop it —usually in 24 hours or less. Splendid, too, for bronchial asthma, hoarseness, or any ordinary throat ailment. Pinex is a h:ghly concentrated compound of genuine Norway pine extract, and is famous the world oyer for its prompt effect upon eoughg. Beware of substitutes.
