Honey and Tar for coughs and find it

especially good fr children's coughs,
as it does not contain any drug that
is harmful." Serious sickness often
follows lingering colds. Hard coughing
racks a. child's body and disturbs
strength-giving sleep, and the poisons
weaken the system so that disease

If you combined the curative proper
ties of every known "ready-made cough
remedy, you probably. could not get as
much real curative power a there is in
this simple home-made eouh syrup,
which is easily prepared in a few
minutes.
Get from any druggist 2VS ounces of
Pinex, pour it into a pint bottle and
fill the bottle with syrup, using either
plain granulated sugar syrup, clarified
molasses, honey, or corn syrup, as de
sired. The result is a full pint of
really better cough syrup than you could
buy ready-made for three times the
money. Tastes pleasant and never
spoil.
This Pinex and Syrup preparation gets
right at the cause of a cough and gives
almost immediate relief. It loosens the
phlegm, stops the nasty throat tickle
and heals the sore, irritated membranes
so gentlv and easily that it is really
astonishing.
A day's use will usually overcome the
ordinary cough and for bronchitis, croup,
hoarseness and bronchial asthma, there
is nothing better.
Finer is a most valuable concentrated
compound of genuine Norway pine ex
tract, and has been used for generations
to break up severe coughs.
To avoid disappointment, ask your

thing else, tjuaranteed to give absolute

Harding reached here this
afternoon in his houseboat cruise
down the 'Florida coast and spent the
night as the guest of Mrs. Harding's
brother, Clifford Kling, who is a win

The houseboat Victoria took her
time during the day's- sailing down the
sleepy, semi-tropical reaches of the
Indian river and did not arrive here
until after 4 p. m.
Mr. Harding and his companions on
the cruise played a round of golf, how
ever, before dinner.
Leaving here tomorrow morning,
the Victoria probably will reach Vero,
her next station, before nightfall. So
far the party has done no fishing and
that part of th vacation program
may be postponed entirely until the
houseboat leaves Miami next week on
her way back to St. Augustine. It
also is possible that the president

MAKE HIGH GRADES
That boys who are working to pay
a part or all of their expenses 'wbe
in school make as good grades as any
of their schoolmates, and better than
th.e majority, is shown In the reports
of Wesley Boyett and Edward Pres

They both attend Lockey school and
are under Miss Clark.
"Wesley lives near Remich store and
carries a route in that section of the
city. He -arrives at The Journal of
fice every morning shortly after 4
o'clock for papers for every home on
his route, which means that he takes
a paper from the office for practically
every home in that section of the
city. Only one complaint from a sub
scriber who did not get his paper was
turned in to the office for four months.
Edward has a route closer to tho
downtown section of the city and he
does not leave the office quite so early.
11 lives on West Chase, Only very
rarely does a subscriber turn in a
kick on account of not receiving a
paper.
Both boys were exempt from any

erty belonging to a coal company Which

stowaways and members, of ships' crews
Into this country is becoming so pre
valent that an organization has been
formed which draws lucrative fees from
those wishing to escape, it was declared
today by Commissioner of Immigration
Wallls at Ellis Island.
Ramifications of the organization
which charges $50 to place each etow
away on ships leaving Europe extend lyst
only throughout shipping center abroad
but also to steamship officials, long
shoremen and others in this country, ac
cording to Commissioner Wallis. The
principal methods employed. it Was
said, include obtaining Jobs for a cer
tain number, on steamships and these in
turn hide others in holds of ships. On
arrival in this country he "crew" mem
bers lend their passes to the stowaways
who thus escape examination by immi
gration authorities. Through collision
with longshoremen Ae passes are re
turned to their original holders. Within
the last two months, said Mr. Wallls,
2,000 undesirables have entered the
country in this way. !
