THAT THE FOOD is DIGEST.
ED Is ASLO EQUALLY
NECESSARY.
We Recommend VinOl as an
Appetite Creator.
WE GUARANTEE THAT VlNOL
WILL AID DIGESTION.

Vinol is the greatest aid to digestion
that we have ever known.
tbs because Vinol acts so beneffcially
upon the stomach that it accomplishes
so much good.
Vinol contains the active curative
principles that are found in cod-liver
oil, without any Oil or grease.
These medicinal elements act so
favorably upon the stomach, that this
organ obtains for itself the elements
necessary for creating new flesh, muscle
tissue and for making rich red blood.
When the stomach acts easily and
naturally, desire is created for good
simple food and good appetite is the
sure result. II
With cod-liver oil as formerly taken
the medicinal elements which it con-
tanned were too often unable to
counterfeit the harm that was done by
the obnoxious grease that enveloped
them.
Now that in Vinol we have those
same elements separated from the vile
tasting fat, we have tonic and re-
builder that is simply marvellous in its
action.
The following is letter that will ex-
plain itself:
This is to certify that l have used
six bottles of Vinol, and have found it
of great value as an appetizer and
tonic in general debility. 1 have re-
ceived so much benefit from its use
that gladly furnish this testimonial
In order that others may be induced to
give it trial and prove to themselves
its recuperative powers. Mas. ELIz-
ABBTH FEENEY, Waterbury, Conn.
We want every one in this place to
know more about our Vinol, how it
cures and what 1t cures. Certainly
the greatest tonic and rebuiIder we
have ever sold.
We, therefore, cordially invite any
one interested to call upon us; and
we want all to bear In mind that we
will gladly refund to any one who Is
not satisfied with the action of Vinol
every cent they pay for It.

1t may be of interest to know that this
practically is the Oldest copper mine in
America, having been successfully and
profitably operated during successive pc

1920. Its main working shaft is down
nearly 5000 feet on the incline. At one

employed upon the properly.
These mines have produced as high as
five and six million pounds OF refined cop

coming year will show production of from
seven to ten million pounds OF refined cop
per from these Ely mines.
Mr. Straine has owned the controlling
interest in this properly since 1894, but
owing to fierce contentious and long con-
tinued litigation the mines were operate
only for brief period Of thi, time and Mr.
Straine finally consented to dispose of the

Interesting Things About the Fameuse
Apple.

The history Of the Fameuse apple in
Vermont reaches back to 100, and in
Canada hundrtd year, farther. This his
tory is not SO we'll known as that of the
lndian wars, but it i, fully as interesting.
and has quite as close a connection WITH
early colonization aud with the ubsequ Mt
progress OF clvilizat on In fact students
OF history are coming to SEE more and
more that wars are not 20 significant as in
dustry, invention and agri ulture.
The Fameuse apple has this advantage
over ma y varietlt that it can, with a fair
degree OF success, perpetuate Itself by
seed, whereas most vari s have to be
distributed by means of gratis. This was
especially an advantage in the early col
onizlng days, before commerce was es-
tablished and before nurseries were known.
Sometimes, however, the Fameuse seed
hngs varied more or less from the parental
type, and came to be recognized as sep
arate varieties, like the Mcintosh, Shl-
awassee, Scarlett PIppin, Louis La Vic
tore, etc, so there are now whole group
OF the Fameuse progeny These have
been sought out and de scribed and their
histories recorded, along with the romantlc
tale OF the original tameuse, by the VeI-
mont experiment station. A NV bulletin
by the horhculturist on "Apples OF the
Fameuse Type" tells the story. 1t is at

topic and triflng con,r button to Ameri.
