Skiing as a Sport Although skis have been used as a means of travel, especially by armies, for at least 4,000 years, as evidenced by a runner of that age now in the Nordiska museum in Stockholm, skiing did not be­ come a sport, even in the Scandi­ navian countries, until 1860. The sport did not become popular in the United States until after 1920. f f 1 I Pattern N o...........................Size. Nam e ............................................. A d d res s ......................................... For Joyful Cough Relief Try This Home Mixture Saves Big Dollars, No Cooking. This splendid recipe is used by mil­ lions every year, because it makes such a dependable, effective medicine for coughs due to colds. It is so easy to mix—a child could do it. From any druggist, get 2*4 ounces of Pinex, a special compound of prov­ en ingredients, in concentrated form, well-known for Its soothing effect on throat and bronchial membranes. Then make a syrup by stirring two cups of granulated sugar and one cup of water a few moments, until dis­ solved. No cooking needed. Or you can use corn syrup or liquid honey, in­ stead of sugar syrup. Put the Pinex into a pint bottle and add your syrup. This gives you a full pint of cough medicine, very effective and quick-acting, and you get about four times as much for your money. It never spoils, and is very pleasant —children love It. You’ll be amazed by the way It takes hold of coughs, giving quick relief. It loosens the phlegm, soothes the irri­ tated membranes, and helps clear the air passages. Money refunded if it doesn't please in every way. Mighty Good Eating/ !
