COUGH Ml XT!’llli FACTS. now TO MAKE A (ioili) IiEJIEDY AT home, BY A QUALIFIED CHEMIST. Everybody knows that a good cough and cold remedy consists of two main sections. The first section is the undiluted medicinal ingredients, or "essence,’' and the second is, of course, the necessary water and sweetening. The preparation of the medicinal ingredients requires trained knowledge, but the water and sweetening can be added in the kitchen just as easily as in a factory. And you save a lot of money by doing so. When you buy the two sections readv mixed you pay 1;6 for quite a small bottle— holding about two and a ball ounces. For family purposes this small bottle lasts almost no time. A few doses and the bottle is empty. But, when you buy the first section—the "essence"—by itseli, and add the water and sweetening at home, you get twenty ounces —a pint—for the same money, 'i nu actually get about eight bottles for the price of one. That is worth thinking about, isn't it? Now, prove these facts Ly trying this Mean's Essence recipe, into a jug put four tablespoonfuls of sugar, three of treacle, two of vinegar, and a large breakfast-cupful of warm water. Stir till dissolved, pour into a big bottle, add one bottle of Mean’s Essence, and shake all together. There is no trouble, bother, or fuss of any kind.
