'CONvALESCENCE
The Remedy That We
Recon- mend To Be
Taken After Sickness
Is VinoI, 1t Pro-
notes Strength and
Quick Recovery

The worst part of being sick Il the
getting well. That is the time when
patience is a virtue.
The sufferer cannot see from day to day
that any strength is gained. The appe-
lite is ftful; the hours drag YEARLY and
it seems that Nature would never be able
to resume her natural course.
Nature finds hard work after the repair
ing process she has been goif through
70 do much more without aid She cries
out for help. We know at such times
Vino is of great assistance.
We have posted ourselves concerning
the scientific action that takes place when
Vinol is taken into the system. We would
be very glad to tell you what We have
learned in this direction and how Vinol
acts upon the body. We have In our
experience had many opportunities TO
notice the result that has actually been
accomplished where Vinol has been used.
These results have always been salts
factory, often astounding even to as.
If you are getting we'll from any
trouble try Vinol. You will sleep better;
your appetite will improve, and, above
all, that which you eat will more readily
assimilate. 1t will be only a day OF two
before you will realize that your strength
is increasing.
If anyone is skeptical we only ask q
thing; that is, that such q n call on us
and let us at least endeayor to convince
him. Such . conversation cannot do any-
one harm. Here is a letter concerning
Vinol, from Mr.. Isaac Campaigns OF
Keene, N. b. He says:
"Itis with great pleasure that l endorse
yinol. My little girl Cora, after . hard
ease of scarlet fever took it with the very
best results. I do not believe she would
ever have recovered II it had not been for
yinol. she was 50 weak. Now she 10 In
the very best Of health"

When a slight fitness attacks a men,
Der of your family no better remedy
can be found than diet end quiet. Rest
is many times more useful h a medi-
cine-rest for the digestive organs and
for the whole body. Frequent doses of
medicine often make a confirmed inva-
lid. When die and rest do not work a
cure it is time to call a physician.
Rousekeepers, as a rule. do not rest
enough from their heavy burdens. Too
much time is spent in catering to the
often depraved appetites of the family.
or If they do sit down to rest there is a
torn garment to mend, buttons to be
looked after, otherwise a dainty piece
of work to crochet or a piece of m
broidery to finish. the worry of which
is equivalent to a hard days work at
the ironing-table or the sewing ma
chine.

In case of a scald or urn the essen
tial thing is to exclude the air as quick
~ as possible. If not blistered. cover
with old linen cloths dipped in sweet
oil, then cover securely from the air.
For a slight burn cover with common
salt; this will soon ease the pain. But
for a dangerous scald or burn, send as
quickly as possible for the, nearest ply
stefan, and do not rely too implicitly
upon homemade remedies for treat
ment.

The Denison Review thinks 1t too
often the case that in privileged pro-
called professional etiquette involves
the protection of offending members
from just and deserved censure and ex.
posture. The professional etiquette
which demands the protection of a thief
or a charletan or a quack is a menace
to society. 1t is all wrong and makes
each member OF a profession h is

of his course. 1t was claimed by
the inventors of the patent plaster
ing used that it would adhere per-
sistently to the wall or ceiling with
out "clinching." With this claim
in view, perhaps, the lath were put
on with spaces of but one-eighth of
an inch between. Such a narrow
opening would admit of but Slight
clinch,' and this would be entirely
neutralized as the lath were swollen
from absorbing the moisture from
the plastering. In this process of
swelling the lath would so nearly
meet as to cut the "clinch' entirely
off, and the fact that the plastering
falls of its own weight invalidates
the claim that the stuff will stick
like glue.
