READ WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY.

We don't want any one in this city
TO drag themselves through life in pain
and misery for the want of enough
strength to feel well and happy.
If you feel listless, without ambition
and run down, it is a bad sign.
You are running grave chances. You
are in a condition to be attacked by
most any disease.
This feeling of debility is symptom
that your system is generally demoral-
lied. You should take a tonic.
You should take Vinol, which we

Following is one case where it did
this. Mrs. T. II. Boyle, of So Chestnut
St, West Newton, Mass, says:
Last spring 1 used one bottle of
Vinol. At that time 1 was all run
down and sick. 1 frd that it did me
lots of good, and by its use my strength
came back to me-"
Vinol is delicious preparation, cor
tanning the active curative principles
that are found in cod-liver oil, dis
solved in delicate table wine.
Vinol acts directly on the stomach,
aiding digestion and at the same time
creating healthy appetite. 1t gives
strength and vigor to every organ of
the body.
We endorse Vinol, and guaran-
tee its action, and will gladly
refund to any one who Is not
satisfied the money which they

Lose Their Head shonpinr.

When the japanese peasants get
themselves up for a pilgrimage to a
city for the purpose of laying in u
stock of finery they present the quaint
est appearance imaginable. The wom-
en- generally tuck up their petticoats
well above their knees, either leaving
the legs bare or else swathing them
In white bandages, which form a kind
of leggings. Their hair is done in the
usual elaborate Japanese style, and
generally an artificial flower is stuck
in at the top. 1t does look comic to
see the wizened face of an old woman
with large red nose hobnobbing
over It And this floral decoration is
not confined to the women; when YOU
meet a party of, pilgrims you often
see the old men also with q flower
stuck coquettishly above the ear.
At Nagano 1t appears that many of
the poor old dears from the country
get so bewildered by the magnificence
of the places they go to and the dis
fractions of shopping that they quite
lose their heads and consequently
their way. So the ever-thoughtful
japanese police have insisted that
every party of pilgrims is to have dis
tinguishing badge. AT Nagano it wss
the commonest thing possible to see
some ancient dame rushing about
wailing. Where Is my party? Where
Is the purple iris party?" or "Where
is the Observation-Disclosures par
ty?" And then she would be told
that Observation-Disclosures par
ty' was on its way to the station, or
that the purple irises- were still say
ing their prayers in the temple.-Kan.

Some wealthy Jewish Peddlers.

The recent sale of large number
of east side tenementS proved some-
thing of IN eye-opener to the brokers
who put through the deal, concerning
the financial resources of the inhabit-
ants of that district. 1t Is perhaps
not generally known that the owners
of hundreds of these tenements are
east side Jews, who live upon the
first floor, act as janitor as well as
agent, and who carefully put aside the
accumulating rentals as fund for
the purchase of additional properties.
One OF the brokers interested in the
recent deal was approached the other
day by poor-looking man, who Of
fercd to buy Rutgers street house
for $4,000. The broker wanted spot
cash. "If you are sure that you can't
carry this" he said to his visitor, I'D
advise you not to buy. l want clean
money for it-you know-no mort
cages" His visitor said not word.
He drew check book from his pock-
ct, wrote check for $50000, and
asked the broker to send 1t to the
bank. 1t was at once dispatched and
in few minutes came back certified.
This east side capitalist was, and is, &
peddler Of feather dusters.-New York

The Carving Knife's Edge.

The amateur carver may encounter
many difficulties before the "art Of
carving" is mastered, yet it is n con-
soling thought that the majority of the
difficulties may be overcome by keep
ing the carving knife in good repair.
''If you can't have tender beef, the
next best thing is Il sharp knife" said
a hotel proprietor, ''and a sharp knife
and poor beef are much better than
the best beef and dull knife. l know
that from years Of experience"
The conversation turned the subject
to carving knives, and the veteran
said that "carvers" were harder to
keep in order than the ordinary table,
knives, because the one who carves
does not make use of the steel as
much as he should. !
st may be an acid in the beef, or
it may be the moisture, or the heat,
or all three" said the expert, but
there is something about hou roast
beef that takes the edge Off a knife
and makes it rip where it should cut,
and the fact that the knife is not af-
fected that way by mutton or ham
makes me think that the dullness is
the result of the action of beef in
gradients on the blade. Philadelphia

But Macklem kept his lower hand on
the rung and spoke, If speaking that

than a motion of ashen lips.
"Put an oyster in my mouthw his

He gulped 1t down with difficulty.
"Now I've lunched with you as I

The sole Of his boot came hard on

tact with something unexpected Mack
lem's strength gave way and he fell
in dead faint.
His face fell forward and his legs
| Gprawled down in George Stacy's
front; he slipped down over the rungs
until the youth jammed the limp
figure against the ladder by pushing
his own body forward.
Old Stacy gave a loud cry, fearing
his son must go down, too, and he
| made movement as il to help him
by getting on the ladder, which might
not have borne the addition of his
leavy frame. But we held the con-
| tractor back for an instant, and then
it was all over. George seized Mack
lem about the waist with his mighty
left arm, and easily backed down the
ladder with him.
He laid Macklem on the roof of the
stair tower and hurried away for some
stimulant.
When he returned with the remedy
the party had all descended from the
chimney top.
1t was fully fifteen minutes before
the stimulant and the tanning of his
face and chafng Of his hands revived
the merchant. Then, like the famous
consular of Rome" the first words
he spoke were of the fight:
Didn't l keep my word with you,
Stacy?"
Faith, you did, thcnw cried old
John. "And n bolder Ceed l never

Then the contractor had the luncheon
brought down to the ninth floor, where
Macklem helped to dispose Of it with
wonderful spirit
The affair illustrates one thing
worth remembering in days when
newspapers make fresh set of heroes
every time armed men do anything
indicating normal human courage. At
Stacy's dinner party q nervous, seden-
tcry, small man encountered what
was to him an immense danger, and
fought his own fear till he tainted, all

THE DESERTED SCHOOL.
By RICHARD BuRToN.

There broods pathos of q time long past
In every nook and every grass-grown
way;
The fences lean as tired out at last,
That once pent in SO many lads at play.
The doors cape open, but one harks in
vain
For human voices or for hurrying feet;
The rusty weather-cock creaks out that
rain
Or days uncloudy come, or snow and
sleet.
The gables droop, the windows, staring
eyed,
Do seem to mock one pitying the place;
"A thousand birds and flowers long have
tried
To put upon the scene summer face.
But spite of them, silence wide and
deep
Clings round the corners, sits on every
stone;
1t is spot for lingering and sleep,
For guessing other fortunes than your

Good Way to Clean Mating.

To clean mating, sweep it twice
first with stiff broom, working along
the grain of the straw: then crosswise
with a soft broom dipped in warm
water, rinsing with clean water This
brightens all sorts of colored mating,
and also saves it, in q measure, from
fading.
Very light mating is best washed,
after sweeping with weak boraX
water or rather wiping with cloths
wrung out of it. Anything whatever
stopped upon n matted floor makes
the last estate of it much worse than
the first. Dust invariably collects un-
derneath and, once wet. shows through
in ugly dark splotches. For grease
spots n grain of prevention beats a
ton of cure, but if they exist, cover
them quickly with prepared chalk
wet with turpentine, let the mixture
remain for two days, then brush off
with stiff brush. If the spots are
very big and very greasy, put one
eighth as much washing soda as chalk
and mix with water to the thickness
Of putty.
Little used mating, as in spare
chambers or upper summer rooms,
should be swept very clean, then
wiped with cloth wrung out Of
sweet milk. Do this once a year
it keeps the straw live and to a de-
gree plant If the milk wash is used
in living room or on piazza follow
it by wiping with very hot clear
water to keep the floor from drawing
flies.-Chicago Record Herald.
