Campbell " Stubborn Cough Quickly Ended by Famous Recipe | Here is_the famous old recipe which millions of housewives have found to be the most depend- able means of breaking up a stub- born, lingering cough. It takes but 8 moment to prepare and costs little, but it gives relief even for those dreaded “flu” coughs. From any druggist, get 21 ounces of Pinex, pour it into a pint bottle and fill the bottle with plain gran- ulated sugar syrup or strained honey. Thus you make a full pint of better remedy than you could buy ready-made for three times the cost. It mever spoils and tastes so good that even children like it. Not only does this simple mixture soothe and heal the inflamed 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 germ.laden phlegm and eases chest soreness in 2 way that is really astonishing. Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of genuine Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creo- sote, in a refined, palatable form. Nothing known in medicine is more helpful in cases of distres- sing coughs, chest cold, and bronchial troubles. 5 Do not accept a substitute, for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded. o CHRISTIAN SCIENCE LECTURE DELIVERED Board Speaks at Washington Auditorium. A lecture on Christian Science was delivered yesterday afternoon in the Washington Auditorium by Gavin W. Allan, C. S. B, of Toronto. Mr. Allan is a member of the board of lecturc- ship of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, and was introduced by Willilam G. Biederman. This lecture was under the auspices of the four Christian Science churches of this city. The lec- turer said in part: “Let us consider, for example, the development of men’s concept of God. You will remember that God was re- garded by men of olden time as a being of human form and having a local habitation. In fact, men had difficulty in thinking of God apart from a local abode in the mountains or high places of the tribe. He was thought of as one of many gods, and not until the age of the prophets was there any great growth toward mono- theism, toward the belief in one God. You remember that Jehovah was look- ed upon as a tribal deity, one who dwelt among His own special people and exercised no jurisdiction beyond their boundaries, and, later, in Isziah’s time, He was conceived of as uflngl for other tribes. During the prophetic age, more spiritual concepts of God were taught. He was conceived to be unrestricted in space and time. He is present everywhere. “Jesus’ concept of God, Jesus' reve- Gavin W. Allan of Mother Chnrch:_ lation of God, far exceeded the con- cepts of God then prevalent among men; His understanding of God, though attainable by men, has not yet been attained. But humanity’s concept of God has not remained, connot re- main, stationary. It is ever progressing. “As the highest peak of the mountain range catches earliest the fifst ray of dawn, so the most spiritually exalted individual glimpses first the dawn of spiritual truth. Well for this age that it has produced-such a one. “Mary Baker Eddy has revealed God anew. To the familiar names for God she has added the endearing term mother, which word alone has brought to many people reading our textbook for the first time the sweet assurance of God’s loving provision and tender care for them in their every hour of need. She has defined God as mind, divine mind, a word which gives us immdeiately a sense of God's knowl- edge of us wherever we are, and of His availability to meet our need.” Many American agricultural imple- ments were shown at the recent Royal Agricultural Show at Victoria, Australia. and 1s YOUR music made?
