he told the people of Hill to kill two of

OF the governor and showed much anger

acts show on the part of Letuli a personal
spite toward Fagaima and an intention to
ignore The laws and punish him according
to his own will and without even reporting
the matter 10 the proper authority. The

BUT lit DOESN'T.
Many Have the Erroneous
Idea That Fat flakes Fat.
One Reason of Cod Liver Oils
Popularity.
Nevertheless Decidedly Wrong
Impression.

Fat taken into the stomach does not make fat.
Thousands of physicians have prescribed cod liver
oil for wasting diseases and all troubles that show
themselves in a decline of weight Physicians know
that the fat or grease is not what is necessary to
make fat tissue. They also know that it is one
of the main things that make cod liver oil imprac
teal IN many The fat is too rich to be
digesed by stomach weakened by disease.
When cod liver oil is given often the oil passes
from the body in exactly the same state in Which
it is received. The reason doctors prescribe cod
liver oil is that 1t contains certain curative prop
critics. 1t is to take advantage of these
tive properties that they have so often tried TO
force their patients take this horrible greasy,
esmeIing nauseating remedy.
There but few people who have not had ex-
pericnce in way another with cod liver oil,
and the thought of its smell is enough TO
| a shudder. When think of these things
it is not strange that every one in our city Is
sounding the praise of Nnol.
Ninol. which Mr.. Henry Evans is handling, is the
solution of embarrassing puzzle that physicians
have had to contend with for years. Much has been
said in the past few days of this wonderful dis
| covery and yet it would be impossible to say too
| much in its praise.
Vinol Wine of Cod Liver Oil. will, indeed, prove
itself TO be a Godsend of the most precious kind.
As have described it before, there is no need
of entering into the subject length but just
| remember that in Vino you procure all the
medicinal properties of curative principles that
make cod liver oil famous but without the greasy
| fat. vinol contains just the right amount of the
active medicinal properties of the Gods liver that
| is necessary for the of such diseases as cod
| liver oil has been prescribed for.
This is subject that every one should become
| familiar with, and recommend that You make
inquiries of your druggist in regard to Nnol, if
| you will call Mr.. Evans who has associated
himself with the Boston chemists who are rrcpar-
| ing this remedy, he will gladly give any all
explanat atoms that may be desired in regard to

From the Scientific American.
The cofeegrowing industry in tropical
Africa is developing tremendously. The
seed was introduced into the country about
five years ago by some English mission
aries, who conveyed a few beans from Kew
with the object of ascertaining whether the
resources Of the country We're favorable to
the culture of the article Judging from
results, the ground appears peculiarly
adapted to the industry, since last year 100
tons of coffee were exported from Uganda
alone, and the result of this years pro-
duction will be even greater. Blantyre cof-
fee is generally contended to be the finest
in the world, even excelling the famous
Mocha. 1t is greatly in demand in Eng
land. but unfortunately I'D to the present
the supply is very limited. The great diff
ficulty with which the growers have to con-
tend is the imperfect means of transport
ing the article from the plantations to the
sea- This difficulty, however, will be over
come to a great extent by the conStruc-
ton of the Uganda railway.

Camille as the Grand.

Camille must be conceded by its Sc
verest critics TO possess an irresistible
charm OF some kind. since few plays of its
age and frequent production can boast of
it's extraordinary drawing power. On the
occasion of its second stock company pre-
sentation at the Grand Opera House last
night the piece was greeted by an audience
that was equally as large and enthusiastic
as any that saw II last year. There are
many reasons why the play is one that ap-
peals TO the majority OF theatergoers, the
principal ones being. perhaps. its intense
humanity and the grandeur of the sacrifice
made by the heroine.
In many particulars the present produc-
ton is superior 10 that of last ason The
scenery and costumes seem TO have reached
