The people of New Castle County
have lust had the realizing results

two brief years the county finances
have been brought to such a low
condition, that that the new Levy
Court found it absolutely necessary
to raise the county rate from sixty
cents.on the hundred dollars, to
eighty cents, that bills already con
traGted and current expenses may
be met. For years the folks of
New Castle County have looked
upon ~the financial condition of
Sussex County with pity; but it
appears that their sympathy was

1 dreamed last night that l wandered
up into the chapter hall for some rea-
son or other and, having nothing else
to do, sat down at the little table in the
anterOom, shuffied the cards idly for
awhile and then commenced playing
solitaire. 1t was rather late ut night.

lighted showed me the we'll known de-

not especially surprised. and ii seemed
the most natural thing i'm the world, on
looking to my right and left, to behold
Mason and Bum in their accustomed
places. Their faces were calm and ex-
pressionless, as they always were at
the card tablespoonful players, both
of them, always so quiet and self con-
tanned that you could judge nothing
from their looks of how their luck was
going. But Hughes. who was more like
myself in temperament, smiled at me
and said:
''Well. old fellow, what's the gamer

ering up the cards, 1 shuffied and dealt
them, turning up hearts as trumps.
The others looked at their hands in
silence, but l regarded mine with jubl-
liant satisfaction, for every card was n
heart, with the left bower and ace at
the top.
All passed.
"Give me your best. Tom, and I'll go
It alone" exclaimed L in confident
tones, but Hughes face was anxious
as he slid n card across the board to
me, and he said in a low tone:
BE careful. VIII. You are playing

But when 1 looked at the card and

quite overpowered the impression in

"Come on, then" l laughed. "Ill

never n word in reply. They sat there
silently, holding their cards in that

we'll as Characteristic of them.
Mason lead with club. Bum follow

trumped the trick.
"If that's the way his nibs of the
white horse puts up his game" 1 re-
marked sarcastically as L led with 4
low trump, I'm engage TO give him a
few lessons"
But my laughter soon changed as
saw the slip L had made, for Mason put
on the nine and Bum the queen Of
hearts. Then ! braced up, and when

GET STRONG
VinOl Makes Weak

WE GUARANTEE IT WILL
DO so.
VIE KNOW OF Nc TONIC Or RE-
BUILDER LIKE 1T.
vinol does create strength.

Vinol does create strength.
We know that and have proved it In
many instances.
The reason Vinol rejuvenates and
strengthens a person is that il acts
directly upon the stomach, strengthen
ing and toning up this great vital organ
and enabling it to obtain for itself,
from the food that is taken into it, the
elements which are required to make
firm healthy flesh and muscle tissue,
sound bone structure and pure healthy
blood.
Vinol does this in scientific way.
and is enabled to do it because it con-
tains, dissolved in delicate mild wine,
in highly concentrated state, the act
i've principles of cod-liver oil.
Vinol does not contain any of the
grease that formerly characterized cod
liver oil, hence is free from all the OBJ
jectionable features which made it inn
possible for patients to take or retain
that vile-smelling remedy into their
stomach.
Vinol in its favorable action upon
the stomach and other organs of the
body acts also in beneficial way upon
the nerves and brain, and will be
found to be invaluable to brain workers
as well as body workers.
The following letter is from we'll
known authoress. 1t reads as follows:
81 wish to acknowledge the receipt
of the Vinol and testify to its great
benefits. Since taking it / am much
improved in health, and during the in
tense heat of last August should not
have been able to continue in my liter
airy work if it had not been for the
strengthening properties of Vinol.
Yours in gratitude. ELLA STARR, 1o6
w. SD ST., N. Y. City.
We wishany one suffering from
weakness, a demoraIized con-
dition of the nerves, or a suscep-
tibiIity to wasting diseases, to
call on us and hear what we have
to say in regard to Vinol.
Try it on our recommendation,
and If you find it does not do
everything we claim for it, we
will gladly refund to you the
amount you have paid us.
