Whenever any one in my family
catches cold and begins to cough and
sneeze, and hawk and breathe heavy,
it doesn’t take me many minutes to fix
up a remedy that will drive away all
such troubles in double quick time.
It’s no secret— any one can make a
half pint of the finest cough medicine
in the world for a trifling sum.
Get from your druggist one ounce qf
Parmint (double strength)—to this add
a little granulated sugar and enough
water to make-one-half pint—that’s all
there is to it.
But now you’ve got a real mediclnet.
mind you—the first spoonful you take
acts directly on the membrane of the
throat and nose, the tickling ceases
almost instantly—the inflammation be-
gins to disappear—up, comes the stub-
born mucus aind often in twenty-four
hours every trace of the cough that
frightened you is gone.
It’s really remarkable how this home
mad© remedy acts on the mucous mem-
brane, and that is one reason it is so
helpful to thousands of cats’- h suf-
ferers.—Adv-

it might strengthen me. A neighbor
had used it with good results.
“I took one bottlo (of Cardui), then
I saw I wasn't so nervous, so kept it
up.
“Gradually the nervousness loft mo.
I began to eat and sleep better. Was
soon well, and all right.
“Cardui did wonders for me, and I
certainly do recommend it.”
Thousands of other women have
written, to tell of the beneficial re-

to recommend it to others.

I Austin Rotarians are planning to
। assist the niversity of Texas in
checking the dissemination of exag-
gerated news reports detrimental to
ethe state school, provided some plan
can be worked out where such can
be done in harmony with all interests,
it was decided Thursday night in a
round-table discussion of directors and
| committee chairmen of the Rotary
Club held at the Driskill.
According to President Mirray Ram-
sey, who introduced th® subject for
general discussion, people in other
sections of the state ar© receiving what |
he termed an unwarranted idea of af-
fairs at the University which is prov-
Ing harmful to the institution through
exaggerated stories appearing in th® I
press of th® state.
After some discussion of the subject
it was decided to refer the matter to J
the Rotary board of directors with the J
recommendation that a standing com-
mittec of five members be appointed,
to be known as the University com-1
mil tee, and thia committee to be em-
powered to work out all problems re-1
lating to the University in which the
Rotary Club may be interested or can!
be of assistance.
This committee will probably take]
up the matter of endowing a Rotary]
student loan fund to assist graduates]
of the Austin high school secure a |
collegiate education. The loan fund]
matter was discussed Thursday night
but definite action in the matter was.

The Rotarians will congentrate most
of their attention on completlng thes-
Children’s Home, for which a site was]
purchased during the past year. The

Another significant polnt mention-
