Those Powers and Portugal.

LISBON. Jan. GA semi-ofiiciai note to
the press, regarding the. Anglo-German
agreement, has just been issued. 1t Is az
follows: The British and German govern
ments, having previously reached an agree
gal that, in the event Of her contracting a
large loan for the purpose Of reorganiz-
ing the finances, the two goyernments
were disposed to guarantee the success OF
the operation.
At the same time, the governments Of
Great Britain and Germany assured Por-
tugal that the basis Of the agreement be-
tween them was the recognition OF the
integrity OF the Portuguese colonial do
minions and the legitimacy OF Portuguese
sovereignty over the Portuguese possess
sionB.
They further suggested that, in the event
OF Portugal accepting the proposition con-
corning the loan. the latter should be
guaranteed by colonial and customs re-
ceipts. The Portuguese government then
declared IL had no need OF such loan, and,
according to our information, has no such
need to the present day.

sioners to examine the ports Of the Pacific

mountain would b. the first objective point
and that the southern bank would be clear
cd before any attempt was made to fcrcA

group. undisnayed BY the failure Of previ-
Gus forecasts. assumed that there would be

with a front attack at the other end Of

theory the reports of systematic scouting
on the Upper Tugela, near Springfield. the
massing of Warren's division at Estcourt,
whence II could be sent toward weenen
and the organisation Of the mule trans
port system on large SCALE
The last detail was certainly significant,

Tugela could be made without mule trans
ports. but an experienced veteran. who
managed the transport system in the previ-
GUS campaign in South Africa. said last
night that this was not conclusive EVIL

quired at once between Colenso and Lady

TOO MANY OF THEM DIE.
Their Little Bodies Unable
to Stand the Ordeal of
Development.
WE THINK EVERY MOTHER IN
THIS TOWN SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT WN0L.
It Is the Delicious Tonic We
Advise for Growing
Children.

Is your boy or girl pale and listless
Do they act differently from other
children Do they sleep poorly and
eat poorly? Does your boy avoid the
sports and games of other boys? Does
your girl complain of headache and
find her studies hardship
If SO, you may make up your mind
they are growing too fast. They need
something to help nature in her great
work of furnishing the necessary ele-
ments for creating flesh and muscle it's
sue, bone structure and rich, pure, red
blood.
They need a tonic in the full sense
of the word and we can tell you what
to get.
1t is Vinol Wine of Cod-Liver Oil, the
great modern reconstruction. Children
like it, it is SO delicious to the taste, in
spite of the fact that it contains a
highly concentrated extract of the
medicinal principles that are found in
cod-liyer oil.
But because the vile-smelling and
tasting grease has been discarded and
all of the other disagreeable features
eliminated, the benefits of Vinol are
easily understood.
Viuol acts favorably on the stomach,
creates an appetite and enables the
food that is eaten to do the greatest
possible amount of good.
Following is letter that bears di-
rectly on this subject:
81 was all run down and took Vinol.
1t did me SO much good and it was so
pleasant to take that l gave it to my
children. They were growing fast and
needed something in the way of tonic
and l found it to be just the thing for
them. SARAH PICKERING, 1882 Fall
River, Mass.
We cordially invite mothers inter-
ested in the welfare of their children,
as well as any one else needing sure,
safe and delicious tonic, rebuilder and
rejuvenator, to call on us. We will
gladly tell any one all we know about
Vinol and why we so highly endorse it.
Inasmuch as we are always ready and
pleased to refund the cost of VinoI to
those who don't find II exactly what we
claim II to be, it will be seen that we
are prepared to substantially endorse
our claims for the excellence of this
marvellous preparation.
