Nicodemus, postmaster and merchant
at Zulllnger, two miles west of
Waynesboro, and carried off a large
quantity of goods early yesterday

Several months ago, when the store
and post office was entered and
robbed, presumably by the same
thieves, they took time to eat lunch
and pen the following note, which
they left upon the counter for Mr.
Nicodemus to read:
"Dear Mr. Man: We have spent a
most delightful time in your store to
night. We have helped ourselves to
your cakes, canned meats, cheese and
candy. and took all the postage stamps
and loose change we could find in the
money drawer, also a quantity of mer
chandise. As we are robbers on foot,

Mr. Xicodemus looked upon the
note as a huge joke at the time, but
now he is thinking differently.
Entrance was gained to the store
yesterday morning by boring a hole
through the rear door, which per
mitted the robbers to thrust through a

How to Make the Best
Cough Remedy at Home
A Family Supply at Small Coat,
and Fully Guaranteed.
Make a plain syrup by mixing one !
pint of granulated sugar and % Pint of ;
warm water and stir for 2 minutes.
Put ounces of pure Pinex (fifty
cents' worth) in a pint bottle, and fill it
up with the Sugar Syrup. This gives
you a family supply of the best cough
Byrup at a saving of $2. It never spoils,
lake a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
The effectiveness of this simple remedv I
13 surprising. It seems to take hold al- i
most instantly, and will usually con- !
?uer an ordinary cough in 24 hours,
t tones up the "jaded appetite and is;
just laxative enough to be helpful in '
a cough, and has a pleasing taste.
Also excellent for bronchial trouble,
bronchial asthma, whooping cough and
spasmodic croup.
This method of making cough remedy i
with Pinex and Sugar Syrup (or j
strained honey) is now used in more ;
homes than any other cough syrup. |
This explains why it is often imitated, |
though never successfully. If you try |
it, use only genuine Pinex. which is a !
most valuable concentrated compound j
of Norway white pine extract, and i 9 ■
rich in guaiacol and other natural
healing pine elements. Other prepara- j
tions will not work in this combination.
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,

SMALL BOY BREAKS
THROUGH RIVER ICE
Little Harvey Thompson Rescued
From Death by G. W. Milli
ken at Marysyille
Little Harvey Thompson, the 5-
year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. John
Thompson, North Main street, Marys
ville. had a very narrow escape from
death by drowning this morning, in
the Susquehanna river, at Marysville.
Little Thompson was in the water
five minutes, before he was finally re
scued by George \V. MUliken. The
boy, with 4-year-old Charles Hocker,
were playing along the river's banks
at the time of the accident.
Young Thompson went out on the
ice in its weakened state, and It gave
way, and he went under the ice. Lit
tle Hocker called to his comrade,
"Can't You Get Out, Harvey." Then,
when he received no answer to his
calls, he ran to the home of George
Milliken, and told them that his lit
tle playmate was in the water and
couldn't get out. Mr. Milliken with
his daughter, hurried to the scene of
the accident, but when he arrived he
could see nothing of Thompson. Mr.
Milliken noticed a little cap, bobbing
up and down and rushed out into the
water. Then with his foot, he broke
the ice under which little Harvey was
held prisoner, and pulled him out.
The rescued child was unconscious for
a time, but when Dr. G. W. Gault ar
rived on the scene, Harvey had been
revived and he is rapidly recovering.

Told Dauphin Co. Court
At a brief hearing this afternoon,

cially in the Dauphin County Court,
released pretty Lublca Miscic, a young
Austrian girl, of Steelton, from jail
on common ball. She had been im
prisoned twenty-one days in jail be
cause of her inability to produce $2,-
000 bond for her release after having
been locked up on a capias charging
slander. Frank Capin brought the
action.
The hearing developed an unusual
story of the betrayal of the ignorant
girl just landed from faraway Austria,
according to her recital to David P.
Baker, court interpreter. Here's her
story:
Friendless and alone. Ignorant of
the language, she arrived here and
met Capin. He contracted to have
her work for htm; then told her the
custom of the country made it unnec
essary for employer and female em
ploye to bother about the marital
laws, but permitted them to live as
man and wife; after a time she ob
jected to this and then he beat her,
and later brought the slander charges.
The girl has brought suit for $2,000
damages for breach of promise against
Capin because, she says, he promised
to marry her.

Christ and immortality and added: '1
