ARRANGEMENTS MADE,
A Deal Closed that will Benefit
Everyone in this Town.
Hereafter We viii be Sole Repre-
sentatiVes Of vinol.

Vinol is attracting attention in every
large city in the country.
The best druggists in every place rep.
resents VINOL.
They do this because they have inves.
tigated and become convinced of its mer-
it's. 1t is this that has led us to get the
agency for this town.
We are happy to announce that we
have succeeded in our endeavors.
We were told that no proprietary med
icine has ever been so popular as VI
MOL. We have learned that the reason
for this is because VINOL is really an
old remedy, produced In a new form,
and is now altogether delicious and
doubly potent.
Vinol is scientific tonic reconstructor
comprised of the curative principles OF
cod liver oil and little organic iron dis.
solved in a delicious table wine. That is
all-no oil-no grease no disagreeable
features, but all the medicinal virtues OF
cod liver oil and more.
There is no one living who will dis
pute the merits of cod liver oil as re-
builder of the human system.
The trouble before has been that but
few people could take cod liver oil on
account of its obnoxious taste and ter
rible odor.
With Vinol, however, everything is
changed. You will get every bit of the
good that was ever found in cod liver
oil and, best of all, you will get this good
withouta particle of grease to help re-
tard it's action.
The way VINOL accompliSheS its mis-
sion is better than it was ever possible
for cod liver oil to bring about the same
results. This is because the elements
needed are now in a more highly concen-
trated form.
We are sure that all our customers
will like VINOL very much and we an
ticipate large and permanent sale for
it.
We also ascertained and wish every
one else to realize the fact, that V1NOL
is not a patent medicine. 1t is simply a
new way of administering the curative
elements of cod liver oil.
We want all who are sick to call and
let us tell them about VINOL, we want
to convince our patrons that we have
been working in their behalf as we'll as
in our own, and we hope that everyone
of our fellow townspeople will appre-
ciate our enterprise in procuring the
agency for this popular medicine and of
being the means of bringing VlNOL
here. We are glad we are going to rep
resent VINOL; to do this has caused
much rivalry in the large cities between
the best druggists, for only to the best
druggists in each place has this agency
been awarded.
If anyone buying Vinol of us is not
satisfied that it does all we claim, we
will refund the money that they have
paid us. VINOL is always sold under
this guarantee.

Sad Result of Republican Victory
From the Baltimore News.

FROM inc Iiilliiiloic A>S"S'
During the seven completed months of the
current fiscal year, the excess of our merchan-
disc exports over imports has shown Il remark :
able falling off, as compared with the CORE
spending period Of the preceding year. In
stead Of SAB, 600, 600 excess, which was re-
corded in the seven months ending January
81, 1901, the seven months ending at the close
of last month show an excess of only S34o,
900, 600 The decline in our Favorable bal
ance" is thus almost a round hundred million
in seven months, or at the rate of about one
hundred and seventy million dollars a year.
If this dreadful tendency should so on UNI
checked, how long will it be before our favor
able balance is wiped out altogether
The cause of this distressing phenomenon
must be evident to the most rudimentary in
teligence. The present fiscal year is the first
year of Il new Presidential term. 1t is true
that there was no change of parties, and no
alteration of tariff policy. But a downward
change of so marked a character must have
some explanation and it is well known that
our Presidential elections constitute the chief
factor i'll determining the course of our ma
tional and international trade. Nor is there
any real difficulty in tracing out the way in
which the victory of the Republican party in
the last national election brought about the
deplorable result in question. Imports had
been checked, during the preceding four years,
not only by the actual duties Of the Dingley
act, but also by the consciousness on the part
ofthe business world that the Democrats might
get in next time, and then we should have
free trade, or something approaching it. I'M
porters were holding back for more favorable
terms Moreover, there was an agitation
within the Republican party for a reduction of
duties, and at one time it was thought that the
reciprocity movements would assume formid-
able dimensions. When the election settled
the question of Democratic tariff revision, it
still took some time before the fact was prac-
tically established that no serious inroads into
the protective system would be made by Re-
publican weakening or dssension. By the
first of July, it was pretty plain that there was
no use in waiting any longer for a reduction
| of duties. The consequence is evident in the
$67 1000, 900 increase of imports during the
past seven months. AS to the $3O,000,0 600
decrease of exports, we leave to our readers
the simple task of finding an equally satisfac.
tory explanation of that phenomenon: based
upon the same cause.
There may, to be sure, have been other
agencies at work, but it is well established
principle of American economics that the
tariff is the only thing worth taking into serious
account in discussing these matters.

The Ornament Wa. Loaded.

sented scene of CONSERVATION and dis
may several days ago. when a swarm
of hornets took possession of the entire
house unexpectedly.
Last fall Mr.. Fulton found an excel
lent species of hornets nest, and find
ing it perfect and intact. he thought it
would make an excellent ornament for
his home. Acting on the impulse. he
took the nest home and hung 1t in the
parlor. That portion of the house is
used very little during the winter, and,
several days ago, when his wife was
preparing the house for visitors, fire
was started in the parlor. The room
soon became warm, and their attention
was shortly attracted by loud buzz
zing, and the next instant the room
was filled with hornets that came from
the ornamental nest. The heat caused
them to come out, and resulted in a
rush to escape from the room. Several
of the family suffered from coming IL.

sumed driving them from the house,

days of the later Georges. An amusing
picture of this period is drawn by Chat
eaubriand, who was ambassador to
London in the days Of George w. "All
the English are mad by nature or fash
ion," he AYERS. Here is his picture Of
an English dandy Of the epoch which

1.-The dandy must have thoughtless.
conquering, insolent air; he must at
tend to his dress, wear mustachios. or
beard cut round like Queen Elizabeth's
ruff or the radiant disk of the sun; he
reveals the lofty independence of his
character by keeping his hat on his
head, by lolling on the sofa, by stretch
ing out his boots before the noses Of the
ladies seated in admiration on chairs
before him: he rides with cane. which
he carries like wax taper, Indifferent
to the horse which chances to be be-
tween his legs. /. A few radical

YOU to do something for me. What's

There was just the faintest susges-
ton of a sound outside. 1t was Enid,
listening with all her ears. She had not
been long In discovering what had had
happened. Once the CHASTITY. farcicnl
incubus was Off her shoulders she had
followed Littimer up stairs. AS she
passed Henson's room the drone Of
voices struck her ears. She stood there
and listened. She would have given
much for this not to have happened, but
everything happened for the worse In
that accursed house.
But Henson's last words were enough
for her. She gathered her skirts to-
sether and flew down the stairs. In the
hall Williams stood with grin on his
face. pensively scraping his chin with
4 dry forefinger.
''Now. what's the matter, miss?" he
asked.
Don't ask questions" Enid cried.
Go and get me the champagne nippers.

to be added to the gloom of the place.

young ladies whom nobody had ever
seen. Children lettering about the lodge
gates regarded Williams with respect
full awe and DR.. Walker with curiosity.
The doctor was the link connecting the
Grange with the outside world.
To add to the gloom of it all, the bell
over the stables changed mournfully.
