Orphans and old age contributory pensions bill was ready for consideration by the. house of lords today, approved by the house of commons after nearly ten days of debates, the last, of which centered about the popular American-born member.

Stubborn Coughs Ended by Recipe, Mixed at Home

Here is the famous old recipe which millions of housewives have found to be the most dependable means of breaking up a stubborn, lingering cough. It takes but a moment to prepare and coats little, but it gives real relief even for those dreaded coughs that follow aevere cold epidemics. From any druggist, get 2Vi ounces of I’inex, pour it into a pint bottle and fill the Kittle with plain granulated sugar ayrup or strained honey. Thus you make a full pint of better remedy than you could buy ready-made for three times the cost. It never spoils and tastes so good that even childreu like it. Not onlv does this simple mixture *jK>tbe and heal the iutlamed 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 throwing off the cough. It loosens the germlnden phlegm and eases chest soreness in a way that is really astonishing. Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of genuine Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form. Nothing known in medicine is more helpful in cases of distressing coughs, chest colds, aad bronchial troubles, i Do not accept a substitute for Pinex. ut is guaranteed to give prompt relief br money refunded.
