when the press of this country de-
votes valuable space TO a new discovery
it must have merit"
This is a remark that a prominent
chemist of this place, who seems to get
buster every day on account of the enor-
nous sales which are being enjoyed by
his pet remedy, Vinol, was overheard to
make to a friend standing in his store
yesterday.
Il do not remember of ever having seen
anything so widely discussed in the pa
pers as has been this discovery of Ninol
only wished ! had clipped and saved
everything have seen. | think beyond a
doubt I would have been able to have
filled a pretty good sized scrap book by
this time
Other people seem to be impressed as
much as / have been by the widespread
short time Here is letter ] received
from Mr.. # II. Gould, q chemist of a
good deal of prominence in North Attle-
boro. He writes me as follows
II have in my experience as a chemist
handled many so-called tonics recon-
structors and preparations designed to re-
build wasted tissue. Never before, how
ever, have I seen anything that would act
as efficiently and quickly as Vinol will,
1.-The delicious taste of Vinol, in my
estimation, greatly enhances its value as
g remedy
"I notice it is spoken of in nearly every
paper / take up, and ] must say | am
surprised to see how much is being said
throughout the country by well known
people in regard to Vinol and the great
good it has accomplished for them per-
sonally or for their friends.
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1898-11-02

II want you to know that / am greatly
interested in the success of this remedy,
and have already had great many oc-
casions to watch the manner in which it
accomplishes its health-restoring mission.
l believe in it thoroughly, and will do all
in my power to have my fellow-towns-
men who are in need of such medicine
take it. That is all that is necessary to
have any one do, for Vinol VIII prove its
own efficacy in a very short time
Yours truly, +. H. Gould
at is just this widespread enthusiasm
that has given Vinol its wonderful inn
petus on the road to success. 1t Is "a
lucky thing for Chester Kent Il Co. that
they are well equipped with enormous
facilities for making this preparation
The sales of Ninol are something astound-
ing, and ! am sure do not see how they
manage to keep up with their orders.
THE beauty of it all is, too, that it ie
lof it and then switching onto something
else / find, and I think lots of other
druggists have found, that after any one
who needs a tonic or a reeonstructor tries
Vinol they learn that it does them good
They come back and buy more and con-
tinue to take it until they are cured
whether two bottles is found TO be suiii-
Gent in a case where only a tonic is
needed after a severe illness, or whether
it requires dozen bottles in cases where
consumption has become fully developed
In every instance Vinol accomplishes
its mission of good, and in the end. when
it is persisted in, health comes back to
the sufferer" Yours very truly, BREW
Err & CO., Worcester representatives. of
Chester Kent & Co.

THE BANK ROBBER
Captured is the Man Who
Operated in Whitinsville.

Whitinsville, Nov. 1.-P. D. West of
Woonsocket has received a second let
ter from the chief of police at Cincin-
natl, and is more positive than ever
that he has located one of the Whitins-
vile bank burglars. 1t will be re-
membered that Mr.. West saw a picture
of a man arrested in Cincinnati. o.,
on the charge of burglary, in a police
publication, and promptly identified it
as the man who came to his office the
morning after the burglary with a
badly mang1ed hand, which he said had
been cut by a saw. Mr.. West dressed
the wound and the man departed, af-
ter leaving a five-dollar bill
The strangers actions were suspi-
clous, and later in the day, when Mr..
WestN heard of the bank robbery, he
felt positive that one of the robbers
had been in his Office that morning. He
reported the circumstances to the bank
of11c1alS, and was called to Boston sew
eral times. When Mr.. West saw the
picture, he consulted a friend and then
wrote a letter to the chief of police at
Cincinnati, telling him of the circum-
stances of the matter. Back came a
lSItcI III d lew udyS, ASKING Tor a ruler
description. Mr.. West sent it, de-
scribing the supposed wound on one
hand.
Today he received letter telling
him that his description Tailed exact
ly with that of a man who is doing a
term of 20 years for bank robbery Two
fingers of the left hand are missing.
This was the wounded hand of the man
who came to Mr.. Vests office two
years ago. Mr. West is undetermined
just what to do. He would like the
$4,000 reward offered by the Whitinsville
bank. but whether he can obtain it on
the evidence is a question. Mr. West
will consult an attorney before he does
anything more

show man the way to long and healthy
life
Common sense teaches that man should
not over-work or over-worry; that he should
take ample time for his meals, for resting
and for recreation and Sleep that he should
not neglect the little ills of life, because
they are the precursors of serious and fatal
fnaladies. Chemistry has enabled men to
make com inations of drugs that we're i'm
possible in the days of the alchemists.
Medical science has taught when, how and
why these combinations of drugs should
be used. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is the most valuable of all health
restoring medicines, and the most effective.
Its first work is upon the fountain head of
life-the stomach. A man who has weak
and impaired stomach and who does not
properly digest his food will soon find that
his blood has become weak and impoyer-
ished, and that his whole body Is improp-
erly and insufficiently nourished This
medicine makes the stomach strong, facil-
itates the flow of digestive juices, restores
the lost appetite, makes assimilation per-
feet, invigoTates the liver and ptrifes and
enriches the blood 1t is the great blood
maker flesh builder and nerve tonic. 1t
makes men strong in body, active i'll mind
and cool in judgment
1t does not make flabby fat, but solid,
muscular flesh, nerve force and vital en-
ergy. All medicine dealers sell it.
