When Your Cough Hangs On, Mix This at Home

For toughs due to colds, the best remedy that money could buy can easily be mixed at home. It saves money and gives you the most reliable, quick-act-ing medicine you over used. The way it takes hold of stubborn coughs, giving immediate relief, is astonishing. Any druggist can supply you with ounces of Fines. Pour this into a pint bottle, and fill up with plain granulated sugar syrup or strained honey. It’s no trouble at all to mix, and when you once use it, you will never be without it. Keeps perfectly and tastes good—children really like it. It is surprising how quickly this loosens the germ-laden phlegm, and soothes the inflamed membranes. At the same time, part of the medicine is absorbed into the blood, where it acts directly on the bronchial tubes, and helps the system throw off the whole trouble. Even those severe coughs which follow cold epidemics, are promptly ended. Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form. Nothing known in medicine is more helpful in cases of severe coughs and bronchial irritations. Do not ascept a substitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded. —Advertisement.

‘Veterans’ Given Awards for Outstanding Work in Last Year. By United Press HOLLYWOOD, Nov. U.—Two veterans of stage and screen, who are neither beautiful nor handsome, were declared the outstanding players in motion pictures of 1931 by members of the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences at their annual banquet early today. Lionel Barrymore, member of the "royal family” of Barrymore, son of Maurice Barrymore and Georgie Drew, and brother of Ethel and John Barrymore, gave the outstanding performance by an actor during the year. Marie Dressier, who admits playing with Weber and Fields before the present generation of film favorites was born, was given the gold statue emblematic of the best performance by an actress. Barrymore and Miss Dressier received the awards from Louis B. Mayer, who has both under contract at his studio. Miss Dressler’s nomination for the award was based upon her performance in “Min and Bill.” There was a feeling, too, that members, in voting her the gold statue, were recalling her work last year in "Anna Christie.” Barrymore, who alternates as a director, and has appeared in few pictures recently, gave his outstanding performance in “A Free Soul,” in which he appeared with Norma Shearer. “Cimarron,” the epic picture of the land-rush days in Oklahoma, was declared the best produced picture of the year. John Monk Saunders produced the best original motion picture story, members of the academy decided, in .“The Dawn Patrol.” HELD IN WHISKY.

Dr Carley shot himself while standing in the doorway between the garage and the laundry so that his body fell to the floor of the garage. The gun vanished into the other room. The door had been fixed to shut mechanically.
