If you have a severe cough or chest cold accompanied with soreness, throat tickle, hoarseness, or difficult breathing, or if your child wakes up during the night with croup and you want quick help, try this reliable old home-made cough remedy. Any drug gist can supply you with 2Vi ounces of Pinex. Pour this into a pint bottle and fill the bottle with plain granu lated sugar syrup. Or you can use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup, if desired. This recipe makes a pint of really remarkable cough remedy. It tastes good, and in spite of its low cost, it can be depended upon to give quick and lasting relief. You can feel this take hold of a cough in a way that means business. It loosens and raises the phlegm, stops throat tickle and soothes and heals the irritated membranes that line the throat and bronchial tubes with such promptness, ease and cer tainty that it is really astonishing. Fiiicx is a special and highly con centrated compound of genuine Nor way pine extract, and 4s probably the best known means of overcoming severe coagbs. throat and chest colds. There are many worthless imita tions of this mixture. To avoid dis appointment, ask for “2‘/s ounces of Pinex” with full directions and don t accept anything else.

CHAPTER IV.—(Continued.) Kars found Alec in liis room at the hotel. Dissipation was In every line of the youth* handsome face. The boy flung out a hand, and it smile lit his tired features for a moment as he welcomed the man who had al ways been something of a hero to him. “It’s bully of you to look me up," he said. "Guess I'm dopey this morning. I sat in at 'draw' lust night, and collected quite a hunch, of money. I didn't feel like quitting early.", "It don't do quitting when luck's running,” Kars said, without a shade of censure. "A feller needs to call the limit—till it turns. •Draw's’ quite a game ” Alect had doubts when John Kars’ name had conte up to him. It had been the working of a consciousness of the life he was living, and of the clean living of his visitor. But the big man's words dispelled the last shadow of doubt, and he went on freely. "Say,” he cried, enthusiasm suddenly stirring him. “I'm only just getting wise to the things I missed all these years. Guess I owe Mur ray a big lot. It was him fixed mother so she'd stake me. and let me git around. I didn't always figger Murray had any use for me. But he's jgted fine, and I guess I—say, I ran snort of money a while back, and when he came along down he handed me a hunch out of his own dip, and stood good for a few odd debts! Can you beat it? Murray iiggers more on | dollars than any feller I know. But ; he's a difTrunt guy when he gets away from his—store. Murray's wise. He guesses I need to see and do things. And he's helped me all he knows. And he showed me around some dandy places before I got wise." He laughed boisterously, and hla laugh drove straight to the heart of the man who heard it. Kars was no moralist, but He knew danger when he saw it. moral or physical. The terrible danger into which this youth, this foolish brother of Jessie, had been plunged by Murray McTuvish stirred him as he had not been stirred for years. But^he acutest thought of the moment was the actions of Murray McTaVsh. Why had ho shown this boy "places?" Why had he financed him privately, and not left it to Ailsa [ Mowbray? Why, why, had ho lied to i Bill? But these thoughts found no outward expression. "Murray’s got his ways," Kars said, “Guess we most have. Mur ray's ways mayn’t be our ways. -They I mayn't ever be. That don't say a ■ tiling against ’em." He smiled. "But I didn't get aroun<* to worry about Murray MeTavish. It’s better than j that.” "Murray isn't the only ice/on the river,” Alec said weakly. Kars faced him. "Nor Is he the only good you’ll maybe locate around. Do you feel like handling—other'.’ Are you looking to make a big hunch of dollars? Do you need a stake that's going to hand you all the things you've dreamed, about? You guess I'm a rich man. Folks Agger I’m the richest man north of 'sixty.' Maybe I 1 am. Well, if you guess you'd like to be the same way, It's up to you." Alec was sitting up. The effects of his overnight debauch had been completely flung aside. "Say, you're —fooling.” he breathed Incredulously. Kars shook ids head. "I quit that years ago," he said. "I-r-I don't get you," Alec went on. Kars laughed. “Sure you don't. But do you feel like it? Are you ready tu take a chance—with me?” "By Gee—yes! If there's a stake .at the end of it." "The stake's there-, sure. But— but It means quitting Leaping Hors; right away, it means hitting the old trail you curse. It means staking vour life for all it's worth. It means using all your father handed you in life. There's millions of dollars in this for you. I'll stake my word on it. it's a eincli—or death. I've handled the strike, and I know- it’s all I Agger. I came along lo hand you this propo sition. And it's one I wouldn’t hand to another soul living. I'm handing it to you because you're your fa- j ther's son. because I need a feller i whose whole training leaves him with ! the north trail beaten.” The youngster brooded on in si- ; Mnco. Kars watched tho battle going i on behind his averted eyes. "When should we need to start?" ' Alec demanded. "Two weeks from now.' “That's not so bad. You said ‘right away.' " Kars' eyes were regarding him steadily. "I call that right away. Well? I'm not handing you any more of it till you—accept,'' he added. Alec paced the room with long, nervous strides. At last the bov spoke something of his thought aloud. "By Gee! I can’t refuse it. It's— it's too big. Two weeks. She'll lie crasv about it. She'll—by gad, I must do it I ran—” He broke off abruptly. "I'll go, Kars.” lie cried. ‘‘I'll go!” v Kars nodded. “Sure,” he said, with a smile. “It's only a year. But say. you'll need to sign a bond. A bond of secrecy, and—good faith. There's no quitting—once it's signed.” “Curse it. I'll sign.” Alec cried with sudden force. “I'll sign any thing. Mi’lions of dollars.'' i "Good.” Kars rose. “Get dressed. I Alec.'" bo said kindly. "You'll sign that bond before you eat. After that l it hand you all the talk you need. Call round at my apartment when you're fixed." After his talk with Ivjts. Alec went to call on Maude at her apartments. Him way took him past Adler’s hotel, and lie remembered that Murray was stopping there. It yet wanted half an hour to his appointment. YcS, he would see if Murray were in. He must tdl him of his purpose to leave (lie city awhile. It would necessitate to send word to his mother, too. Murray was in when lie received Alecs message. He sent down wofd for him to come up to his room. When Alec appeared, MMrray gripped his outstretched hand with a cor diality that was not intended to lie mistaken. "Sit right down, boy." he said. "I Just can't stay. Murray,” Alee said hastily. "I was passing, and I thought I'd hand you the tiling I got in ;ay mind, and get you to pass word on to tny mother anil Jessie.’’ "Why, just anything you say.” Murray returned heartily. "The plans?" Alec made a movement that sug gested unease. "Why, I can’t tell you a thing worth hearing,” he said, remembering his liond. "It’s just that I ni quitting Heaping Horse in two weeks. I’m quitting it a year, maybe. I’ve hit a big play. Maybe It’s going to hand me a pile." Murray's smile deepened if any thing. "Why, boy, that's great,” he exclaimed. "That's the greatest news over. Guess you couldn’t have hand ed me anything I like better. As for yotir mother, she’ll be Jumping. She wasn't easy to fix, letting you get around here. You’re going to make good. I’ll hand her that right away. Vm quitting. I’m getting back to the fort ip a few- days. That’s bully news, hoy, you're quitting in two weeks?” "Yep. Two weeks.” It was then that Murray changed from .tie attitude of delight to one of deep gravity, "I was going to look jnu up if you hadn't happened along," he said seriously. "I was talking to AVIseman last night. A’ou know AA'iseman. of the Low Grade Hills mine out west? lie's pretty tough, but lie's worth a big roll, and he's with all Ihe ‘smarts'1 of Elysium Fields. Say, don't jump, or get hot at what I'm going to say. I just want to put you wise." "Get right, ahead,” Alec said easily. “Why, it’s about Pap," Murray went on. deliberately. “And your news about qulttlug's made mo glad. Wiseman said two ‘gunmen’ had come into the city, and they’d come from 'Frisco because Pap had sent for them. He saw them yesterday and recognized them both. Josh halls from Frlfj^, you see. He handed his yarn tj*ie to hand to you. Get ine?” Alec laughed. "Why, say. that’s fine,” he cried, his eyes shining reck lessly. “If it wasn’t for that darn pile I'd stop right around here. If Pap gets busy, why, there's going to be some play. , I don't give a whoop for all the Paps in creation. Nor for his ’gunmen’ either." He was gone, and Murray was standing at his window gazing out. The dance hall revel at the Ely sium Fields was in full swing. It was the third night of Alee Mow tray’s last two weeks In Leaping Horse. How he had fared In his settlement of affairs with the wo man who had taken possession of his moral lieing was not much con cern of any one hut himself. Neither Kars nor Bill Brudenell had heard of any contemplated change In his plans. They bad not heard from him at all. Kars had verified the last detail of the situation as far as the proprietor of the Elvslum Fields was concerned. Nor was he left with any illusions. Pap had no in tention of sitting down under this terrible public and private hurt a boy from the “inside” had inflicted upon him. And Pap had a red rec ord behind him. None knew better than Kars how little there was to be done. The Over 67 4ears e °f> Success ADVERTISEMENT. SAGE TEA KEEPS When Mixed With Sulphur It Bring* Back Its Beautiful Luster at Once.

Even to an open j challenge to the Inscrutable l’ap. Kars and Bill were agreed they I dared risk no such calamity. Every night saw them onlookers of the i scene on the dance floor of die Ely , simu Fields. And their vantage I ground was the remote interior of one of tile boxes Their purpose was simple. It was a certainty in their minds that I’ap would seek u public 1 vengeance. Nor could he take it better than in his own dance hall where Maude and Alec flouted him every night. Thus, if their expecta tions were fulfilled, they would be on the spot to succor. It was the third n -lit of their watch. I’ap was at his post amongst the crowd a- the liar. Ills dark face hid every emotion behind a perfect mask. Never once did he display any undue interest in the tall couple whose very presence in his ball must have maddened him to a murderous pitch. Bill was looking the crowd over for strangers. "There's just one guy 1 don’t know." ’he said “But be don't look like cutting any ice. He's half soused anyhow, with four bottles of wine on the table between him and his dame." "Which is he?" Kars demanded. “Why. right there by that table under the balcony.” Ha looked like a miner. He was not particularly prepossessing, even apart from his general umleanlt ness. There was something arti ficial in his lounging attitude, and the manner in which he was pawing the woman with him. “You guess he's acting drunk?" There w .s concern in Kill's voice. "Can’t say for sure.” The orchestra had started a wallr, and the new dance seemed to claim all the dancers. Alec and Maude were one of the first couples to appear. But Kars and Bill were watching the stranger. He had reused up, and was talking to his woman. A few moments later they emerged from their table to join I lie dancers. The man was swaying about ns ho moved. Kars' searching ing gaze missed nothing. The cou ple began lo dance. And for all the roan’s unsteadiness it was clear he was a good, if reckless dancer. The srber gait of the other dancers, how ever, seemed unsuited to his taste, nnd he began to sweep through the crowd with long racing strides which his woman could scarcely keep pne? with. Kars stood up. The man had swept round the hall, and he and his partner were lost to sight under the balcony. I (Continued In The Morning Bee.) PIANOC TUNED AND REPAIRED All Work Guaranteed A.
