This Home-Mixed j
Cough Remedy is
Most Effective
Easily Mixed. Needs No CooUwg.
Cough medicines usually contain a
Urge quantity of sugar syrup—a good
ingredient, but one which you can eas
ily make at home. Take 2 cups of gran
ulated sugar and 1 cup of water, and
stir a few moments until dissolved. No
cooking! No trouble at all.
Then get from your druggist 2V*
ounces or Pinex, pour it into a pint
bottle, and add your syrup. This gives
you a full pint of truly wonderful med
icine for coughs due to colds. It is far
better than anything you could buy
ready-made, ana you get four times as
much for your money. It lasts a long
time, never spoils, and children love it.
This is positively the most effective,
quick-acting cough remedy that money
could buy. Instantly, you feel it pene
trating the air passages. It loosens tha
phlegm, soothes the inflamed membranes
and makes breathing easy. You’ve never
seen its equal for prompt and pleasing
results.
Pinex is a concentrated compound of
Norway Pine, the most reliable«ooth
ing agent for throat and bronchial 4
membranes. Honey refunded if it
doesn’t please you in every way.
