ShOt-Gun
Prescriptions

We suppose we are not revealing
any trade secrets when we say
that many medicines are made up
on the principle Of the sO-called
"shot-gun prescriptions which
we're formerly somewhat in vogue.
The idea of the shotgun pre-
scriptions was to put into a medi-
cine a large number Of different
drugs, each useful for different
purposes, in the hope that some
Of them might hit the case.
The most successful physicians
we know use a more direct method.
The medicine we sell over cur own
name and guarantee does the same.
This medicine is called Vinol. 1t
is the best thing we know for run
down condition, for nerve troubles,
for lung troubles, for weak women,
pale children, and old people - in
fact, it is a safe, pleasant, reliable
tonic and reconstructor.
1t is not a scattering "shot-gun
prescription" but it goes straight
to the mark, and has cured so
many people right here in town,
that it gives US confidence to
sell it on an absolute guarantee,
as follows: If you use a bottle and
it does not help you, well give
you your money back without a
word of complaint.
We could not afford to guarantee
it so boldly if we had not seen 1t
succeed in ninety-eight out OF every
one hundred cases.

Washington, D. c.. March 24.-This
matter, concerning the aspers-

ish minister at Caracas, directly upon
Mr.. Russell and indirectly upon Min
lister Bowen, is declared here to be a
closed incident and there is not the
slightest disposition to pursue the
question further. Mr.. Haggard has left
Caracas for good and consequently
cannot again come in contact with the
official of the American legations.

SURIGAO
Crowd in the Government Building
Resisted Assaults of the Ladrones.

Manila, March 24.-The town of Sur
igao, in the northeastern part of the
island of Mindanao, which was cap
tured Sunday by Ladrones was relieved
tody. The American officials ard for
eigners were found to be safe.
Eighty Ladrones led by ten escaped
convicts, participated in the attack on
Surigao. They had twenty rifles and
forty bolos and succeeded in surpris-
ing and rushing the constabulary bar
racks and stampeding the constabu-
larry. Inspector Clark was killed at the
first rush. The Ladrones captured
eighty rifles.
The American officials, the men and
the foreigners sought refuge in the
government building, where Treasurer
Kelly, a former Indian scout, assumed
command. The defenders of the build
ing We're armed with shot guns and
refused the of the Ladrones
to surrender. They held out until the
town was relieved today by a force
Of constabulary sent from Tacloban.
The Ladrones fled at the approach of
the conStabulary.
Three companies of United States in
fantry will reach Surigao tomorrow
and will then probably start in pur-
suit Of the Ladrones. The government
forces operating in Albany Province
