Vin0l Makes il.
POOR BLOOD CAUSES ERUP-
TONS AND WEAKNESS.
VinOl Makes Pure, Rich,
Red Blood.
BECAUSE WE KNOWN THIS
WE GUARANTEE ITS ACTION. j..

impoverished blood is a sure sign of
internal disorders. We see every day
too many people whose faces plainly
show that there is something radically
wrong.
We want all Of our fellow-citizens to
know of our splendid blood purifier
and blood maker.
We refer to Vinol.
Vinol, as we have before stated, is q
purely scientific preparation.
Vinol owes its virtue to the fact that
it contains in a highly concentrated
state the active curative principles,
taken from the livers of live cods-the
same elements that formerly were
found in codliver oil, and which made
il famous.
Vinol does not contain the grease or
fat that characterized cod-liver oil and
made it in many cases worthless.
Vinol acts upon every one of the
great vital organs, and by invigorat-
ing and giving them strength, enables
them to properly perform their func-
tons.
Vinols effect on the stomach is mar
velous. 1t tones up this, the greatest
Of the organs of the body, and enables
it to obtain from the food which is
taken into it the necessary elements to
create flesh and muscle tissue, bone
structure and pure, rich, red blood.
We are in receipt of letter from a
Savation Army woman which reads as
follows: .,t. a.. ST.
Il took Vinol after bad attack of
grippe, and so much good did it do me
that I persuaded my sister to take it.
She was all tired out. Had no appe-
tite and her blood was very poor It
did her as much good as it did me. -
BETSY HABERsHAw, 71s River St., Fall
River, Mass.
Won't you please come in and
see us1 We are always glad to
extoI the merits of VinoI.
We will give you back your
money if you don't find Vinol

MORE GAvEL RULE
Speaker Miller Does the Trick in
the House That Northcott
Did in Senate.
ROLL CALL is REFUSED
And Demand for Fairness is Abse-
IuteIy Ig-
nOred.

Springfield. Ills, Feb. 5.-The h use
yesterday morning adopted the ma jori-
ty report of the committee on rul, s.
The amendments presented by Sher-
man (Rep) and by Wilson and John
son DEM were laid on the table on
viva voce vote, the Democratic de-
mand for a Toll call being ignored by
Speaker Miller. On the Republican side
there was no demand for the yeas and
nays. Sherman took occasion to adj
dress the house in support of his
amendment. Speeches were made also
by Wilson and Johnson, in which they
assailed the rules proposed by the ma
jority. Immediately after the reading
of the journal Chiperfield presented the
report of the committee on rules and
moved its adoption.
Skipped Some of the Rules.
The clerk proceeded to read the re-
port and as it was apparent that he
was skipping some of the rules Schlag-
enhauf interrupted him with the in
quiry whether the report Included the
rules from thirty-one to fifty, am
some others which had been omitted
in the reading Chiperfield replied
that the rules as reported were exact
~ the rules of the FOrty-second gen
eral assembly without any change or
modification except that the commit
tee on judicial appointment had been
substituted for the committee on SEN
atorial and congressional appOrtion-
ment and that the judiciary and ap.
preparation committee had been in
creased to thirty-five members.
Miller Has a Blind Side.
Wilson Oem0 wanted to know if
the report was signed by all of the
members of the committee on rules
and whether il had been presented 10
the minority members. Chiperfield re
piled that it had been presented to
the committees; that the minority mem
bers had refused to sign it and that
it had been signed by all of the Re-
publican members.
Wilson then presented and spoke foI
an amendment providing that on Thurs
day morning of each week during Feb.
ruary. resolutions shall be in order i'm
mediately after the reading of the jour
nal
Chiperfield moved to lay the amend
ment on tho table The Democrats
made vociferous demand fer the roll
call. but Speaker Miller failcdeste rec
ognize them. and the motion was put
to q viva vOce vote. and amid Demo
cratic boots and yells, was declared
carried.

sHERMAN's AMENDMENT
Rejected with the Others-Demand for
the Ayes and Nays.


the Ayes and Nays.
Sherman RepD offered the following
amendment to rule 10, which provides
for the reference of resolutions: "EX-
cept when a resolution shall be offered
to appoint select committee and the
designation or selection of the same
shall be provided for in such resolution,
in which case the resolution shall lie
over for one legislative day and shall
thereafter be in order as in other cases,
and shall with all motions relating
thereto be disposed of by a majority
vote to be ascertained by a call of the
roll for the yeas and nays, such roll
call to be entered upon the journal
of the house.
Sherman made brief speech in sup
port of his amendment. and Wheeler
made a much longer speech in opposi-
ton, and then 1t was tabled by a viva
voce vote. The next amendment was
offered by Wilson DEM and was TO the
rule providing that resolutions in re-
lation to the expenditure of money
shall be referred to the appropriate
committee without debate. The
amendment read: "Such expentitude to
be authorized only upon majority
vote of all the members elected, such
vote to be ascertained by call of the
roll for the yeas and nays, and the
same to be entered upon the journal Of
the house" Upon the amendment
Wilson demanded a roll call and a
score of Democrats arose in their places
and with uplifted hands demanded
the ayes and nays.
Now, Mr.. Speaker" said Wilson
continuing, there can be no Question
but what the requisite number of the
members of this house have demanded
roll call upon this and subsidiary mo-
lions relating to this amendment. But
we are confronted not only in the COM
mittee on rules but in this house with
the disgusting spectacle of the organ
ization which controls this house aban-
doning and violating not only the rules
which they themselves adopted, but
which the fathers that prepared the
constitution and said that they should
obey. democratic applause].
Upon page 81 of Hurd's revised
statute we find the following: In the
senate at the request of two members,
and in the house at the request OF five
members, the ayes and nays shall be
taken on any motion and entered upon
the Journal of the house," Wilson
then proceeded to discuss the matter,
declaring he was only fighting for the
members.
Morris (Rep) moved to table the
amendment. There were Democratic
shouts of why? why?" Speaker
Miller put the motion to table. while
the Democrats were loudly demanding
roll call. The Republicans voted sol
| idly for the motion. and only Demo

johnson DEM then offered as a
substitute for the majority report, the
report agreed upon by the Democratic
members of the committee on rules.
He made an extended speech is sup
port of the minority report. Stewart.
the Prohibition member, then spoke,
particularly for the purpose said he,
'of placing the Prohibition party on
record with reference to the questions
that are being .thrashed over in this
house" ILaughter.l He said that he
would take supreme pleasure in sup
porting the amendments before the
house. but in the event of the failure
Of their adoption. in order to get the
house down to business, he would be
willing to support the Majority report
Il am somewhat amazed" said he,
lat some OF the things that have been
said in this body. l dare say that is
because l am a new member. If it
should be my misfortune TO be de-
prived of life and liberty at home and
be sent here another time. perhaps |
shall become accustomed to this sort
or thing. Laughter But l have
been surprised to hear the question
discussed whether twenty-five or fifty
persons demanding roll call should
be able to get it. Think of it, When
the constitution says that when FIVE
members of this house demand the
yeas and nays the roll shall he called;
and yet 1t is seriously discussed here,
whether those who make the demand
shall have the roll call
who has Il right to refuse any such
request? While this thing may have
been done in the past-while it may
have been done to expedite bus.ne, 8
Il am satisfied it does not reed to
be done to expedite just business.
wish to remind you gentlemen that so
long as such a course is followed you
are sowing the wind to reap the whiri-
wind. The hour might come
when a minority might find itself with
man seated in the speakers chair
and another in the position of lieu
tenant governor simultaneously in this
capital. and the precedent which had
been established for mere partisan rea-
sons might be used for another pur-
pose and might arouse public senti-
ment until there would be n revolution
in this state. There have been revo-
lutions brought about by just such
causes"
The minority report was then laid
on the table on a viva voce vote and
the majority report was adopted. Viii
son Dem.) gave notice that today he
would move a reconsideration of the
vote.
