Make This and Try It
for Coughs
This ll.mr.nadr Remedy hii
no Dqunl for Prompt
Results.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
% pint of warm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 2V4 ounce* of Pinex (fifty
cents’ worth) in a pint bottle; then add
the Sugar Syrup. Take a teaspoonful
every one, two or three hours.
This simple remedy takes hold of a
cough more quickly than anything else
you ever used. Usually conquers an
ordinary cough inside of 21 hours.
Splendid, too, for whooping cough,
spasmodic croup and bronchitis. It
stimulates the appetite and is slightly
laxative, which helps end a cough.
This makes more and better cough
syrup than you could buy ready made
for $2.30. It keeps perfectly and tastes
pleasant.
Pinex is a most valuable coneen
tiatod compound of Norway white pine
extract, and ift rich in guaiacol and
other natural pine elements which are
so healing to the membranes. Other
preparations will not work in this plan.
Making cough syrup with Pinex and
sugar syrup (or strained honey) has
proven so popular throughout the United
states and Canada that it is often
imitated. But the old, succesaful mix
ture has never been equaled.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction,
or money promptly refunded, goes with
this preparation. Your druggist has
Pinex or will get it for you. If not,

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
M. C. A membership campaign vjlll
he held next Tuoaday night, Marco
2d. at tha association building, for
the purpose of making plana for the
campaign this year.
According to information In the
handa of Mr. Wm. Hunter, general
secretary of the association, toe
campaign will be operated thla year
on a different plan from laat year.
Ixroally, instead of having ten com
mltteei, there will be but two.
The campaign thla year will be in
every detail fair. Unlike laat aeaaon
the cltlea contenting In the campaign
will bn rated according to their male
population, and In thla manner /every
city will be on an equal baalt. While
Augusta will have 700 points deduct
ed from her total eeore, Memphis win
have 11,700 (points deducted from her
score. The difference la accounted
for In the Tact that the male popula
tion of Augusta le 11,033 and Mem
phis’ la a great deal larger. Augusta
will doubtless benefit from the new
plan.
lAst year the membership of the
local Y. M. t\ A. was Increased by a
little lsss than two hundred as a re
sult of the membership campaign.
ROBBER GANG
NUMBERS SIX
Negroes Implicate Local Mer
chants Whom They Declare
Purchased Stolen Ooods.
In thC arrest of John Williams and
Herbert Bailey, two negroes, whom
the officers captured on Saturday last
by battering down tha door of a hut
In which they were ataylng, on the
outskirts of the city, a gang of bur
glars and robbers that haVe been no
torious for their work In Augusta and
elsewhere, so It Is alleged, has been
rounded up.
KtUI another negro, Gains Johnson,
was found to be sleeping on a piece of
canvas near the hut and he Is also
said to be one of the burglar gang.
The rest of the gang was also caught
and they gave their names as Earl
Roberta, alias Kid Roberts; Tom Allen,
alias Yellow Bubber, and George Alex
ander. The negroes have made con
fessions, or at least a portion of them
have, of robbing various places.
A quantity of goods alleged to have
been stolen by the negroes was found
in several grocery stores In the city.
It Is alleged that the negroes stole
from one merchant and would sell to
another.
According to the confession of Her
bert Bailey, one of the negroes, Allen
& Baxley's place, at 625 Broad street,
was robbed on February 14th and 200
boxes of cigarettes, each box contain
ing 50 packages, and a piece of bacon
were taken.
The next place the negroes entered
was the Standard Oil Company. They
secured only some wearing apparel
there. The Augusta Mattress Factory
was the next victim and then the Au
gusta Merchandising Company, on
Ninth street, was robbed. A quantity
of groceries was secured there.
Audley HIU & Co.’s place was robbed
several weeks ago by the gang and u
considerable amount of tobacco stolen.
Dawson & Gentry’s store was next
robbed.
There were also robberies of local
pressing clubs and the Augusta French
Dry Cleaning Company.
The negroes say that they sold tho
stolen goods to Doc Bee Bung, a Chi
nese, who keeps a store at Twelfth
and Jones streets; W. T. Buggs, and
M. M. Parish. The places of these
three were raided by the police and
a large quantity of goods secured.
However, Parish denies that he pur
chased any stolen goods from the ne
groes and says that he purchased what
had been described as loot by the of
ficers at an administrator's sale of the
effects of R. J. Mitchell, who died a
short time ago.
The negroes who are now locked up
are believed to have perpetrated many
other crimes during the past few years
and with their capture It Is believed
that there will be much less burglar
ising In the city. The robbers Include
I>r. R. C. Williams, a colored physi
cian, os one of the victims of their
robberies, having entered his place
some time ago.
