IT CAN BE DONE.
People Believe Nature
Cannot Be Improved Upon.
Science Has Demonstrated That Her
Best Gifts Are Often Hidden.
1t Takes the Hand of Man to DevelOpe
Natures Benefits Which, Without
the Aid of Science, Would
Often Remain Unknown.
IT CAN BE DONE.

In many ways nature is all right just as
she is, and when the hand of man attempts
to improve upon her works, botchy job,
to say the least, often results.
There are, however, a great many in
stances where, by little human help, ma
tures best gifts are doubly enhanced in
value and brought forth from obscurity in
a manner that is causing this century to
be known as one of progress.
There is nothing in the way Of new
discovery that will prove Of greater BEN
eft to man in general and to the inhabit-
ants of this part of America in particular,
than Vinol, which represents an old and
valuable remedy introduced in new and
practical form. Vinol is being hailed by
physicians and patients alike as glorious
intervention of Providence for annihilat-
ing certain diseases of a wasting nature
and prolonging life, and its discovery is a
fitting climax, coming as it does at the
end of century that will go down into
history as remarkable for its advance
ment.
vinol as it is sold today, isofast becom-
ing what all other great inventions soon
become, a positive necessity that makes
the world wonder how 1t ever existed with
out it.
Cod liver oil, on account of the peculiar
medicinal properties which it contains, has
been known to science for years as the
most efficient of all specifics for throat,
lung and bronchial troubles and all vast
ing diseases. The layman, however, has
appreciated the fact as forciby as the
professional that this same remedy was
often rendered practically useless on ac-
count of its disagreeable odor and taste,
until 1t began to appear as though cod liver
oil might eventually be omitted from the
pharmaeopoeia.
The invention of Vinol has saved this
wonderful medicine, not as we have known
it, to be sure, but in its new form, which is
nothing more nor less than the identical
potent, remedial factors that have made
the Gods liver famous. The new discov-
cry consists only in finding a way of ex-
tracting the curative principles of the
Gods liver which, once obtained, are dis
solved in a mild, delicious and delicate
table wine.
And so to US is given this old remedy in
its new form, doubly efficient, absolutely
tasteless, and denuded of its greatest and
most serious objection, the fatty matter
itself, which has always precluded the use
of cod liver oil in cases where the diges-
tive apparatus had become weakened.
Vinol Is with us to stay, and to do good as
yet is incalculable.
Until repairs are completed in my store,
Vinol will be found on sale at the store of
Brewer & Co., Front st.

watering legislation of 1894
Mr.. Bennett of Saugls didn't see the
necessity of the proposed amendment.
He didn't understand the real object OF
1t, and wondered whether its author
was for or against the bill
Mr.. Jones of MeIrose spoke of the ur-
gent necessity of carefully guarding the
public interests in granting special priv
ileges to great corporate interests. He
cited the action of the Massachusetts
Pipe Line Company, which proceeded
almost Immediately after securing its
charter to violate the provisions of the
general law. 1t was stated in 1896 that
the rights Of the public were carefully
guarded by the provisions of the Pipe
Line bill, but this didn't appear to be
the case.
Mr.. McCarty of Boston asked for time
to consider the amendment, and pending
further debate, the house adjourned.
Mr.. Russell of Worcester started a
fierce fusilade against the bill to license
laundTies in the commonwealth. He
thought it had come to a pretty pass
when it was necessary for the poor
washwomen Of the state to obtain a Ii
eense from the state police. Hostile re-
marks were offered by Mr.. Allen Of
Pittsheld, MIR. Bemis of Charlemont, Mr..
Hoyt of Hayerhill, Mr.. Batcheller of
Boston, Mr.. Bleiler of Boston, Mr..
Jones of Melrose and Mr.. Calendar OF
