METEoRs AND STARS.

Astronomers looking for shooting
stars on the night Of Thursday Nov.

their villgance. At the Harvard OBJ
scryatory more than 400 meteors were
counted, and $50 OF these were Leonids.
A few OF them appeared before 2 o'clock
In the morning, but most Of them We're
not seen until between 4.So and S
o'clock. The color was generally light
green. but some OF them were blue, and
others red. One unusually large meteor
left a trail visible for fifteen minutes.
At Northheld. Mimi. students OF
Carleton college recorded and charted
more than 1000 meteors upon specially
prepared charts. The climax was
reached at 5:is;o2. when brilliant me-
teor Of magnitude minus was seen e

sisted for p minutes. Several thousan'
large Leonlds were seen at Goodseli.

new YORK ArTEE THE ELECTION
New York Evening Post.

1t is gratifying to observe how the
election OF Mr.. Low TO the mayoralty
has raised the level Of men who are now
regarded as within the range of choice
for heads OF departments. Everybody
realizes that the man who put Col John
n. Partridge in charge OF Brooklyns
police force. nearly twenty years ago,
would not for moment consider any
ordinary politician FOR the police COM
missionership Of the greater city: and
that the type OF man so excellently per-
sonified In the late Ripley Ropes, whom
Mr.. Low made superintendent Of public
works In 1882 is the type which we
may count upon seeing In charge OF
other departments than that Of police
The cabinet" OF New Yorks mayor
for Mr.. Low will undoubtedly again
treat his heads Of departments as con-
shutting such body-should be com
posed Of eminent citizens, and 1t Is clear
that the public expects the new execu.
tive TO choose only such.

At the session OF the New York legis-
lature which will open next January, a
strong effort will be made by reputable
people to secure a modification OF the
Raines law. The intention of the Raines
law was to diminish the liquor evil. The
effect Of II was TO put into the hands
of Tammany the power to tyrannize
over and blaoknall keepers OF drinking
places-a power which resulted In the
decentralization OF the metropolitan po-
lice force to an extent never equaled in
the most corrupt crises OF the period
before the enactment OF this law.

Mr Low is confronted by an extreme

Vinol, the New Form of Cod
Liver Oil.
Causes a Sensation in Medi-
cal Circles.
Not Olly in America, But in
Europe.

Good news goes fast, ;" 81 lid w. II
Marshall, proprietor Harper house
pharmacy Yesterday, talking to re-
porter about that wonderful Vinol
concerning which so much is heard
nowadays. why, you know that
besides being talked about in New
England. many of the prominent pa
pers in America are devoting more or
less space to this wonderful discovery.
See here, what do you think of this? ~
Whereupon Mr.. Marshall produced an
article from the Lancet, of London,
England.
The Lancet is the greatest medical
publication in the world, and any
thing appearing in its columns is
considered as indisputable evidence.
''Let me read this to you" said Mr.
Marshall. Il won't bother you with
much of it, but here is enough to
show you what the great men of the
old world think of Vinol," whereupon
he read the following:
''Recent investigation has led to the
isolation of several distinct bodies in
cod liver oil, notably amongst which
are the alkaloids. These principles
have been tested faithfully and the re-
suits form the subject of an exclusive
report by Gautier and Mourgues in
the Journal de Pharmacie, who con-
Guided that the com bined active prin-
ciples of cod liver oil act as powerful
stimulants of nutrition and assim ula-
ton, and show definitely the nature
of the principles to which the oil owes
its valuable medicinal properties.
land the best part of all this is, y
continued Mr.. Marshall. lit is not
only the physicians that are enthusi-
astic, but the people who are taking
the remedy. After all. do not blame
them much, either. 1t does not take
but minute for any one who is
obliged to take cod liver oil 10 find
out that Vinol is tasteless. Then the
patient soon realizes its advantage.
1t does good so much more quickly
and accomplishes the desired end in a
much more marked manner than cod
liver oil in it's crude form was ever
able to do. Oh yes, of course l con-
slider the success of Vinol as assured.
How can it be otherwise-a discov-
ery that has revolutionized the form
and made it practical to prescribe the
greatest known medicine for all vast
ing diseases.
Just think what it means; getting
all the benefits in a concentrated
form. and no more nauseating, vile
smelling grease. Yes, come any time
you would like to see me. l am al
ways glad to see you about Vinol and
find out more to say in its praise
every day.
