POOR BLOOD CAUSES ERUP-
TI0NS AND WEAKNESS.
vlnol Makes Pure, Rich,
Red Blood.
BECAUSE We KNOWN THIS
We GUARANTEE ITS ACTION.

: Impoverished blood is 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-cftizens to
know Of our splendid blood purifier
and blood maker.
We refer to Vinol. (.
Vinol, as we have before stated, il q
purely scientific preparation.
Vinol owes it's sSvirtue to the. fact that
it contains in a highly concentrated
taken from the ivers of live cods-the
found in cod-live~ oil, and which made
it 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 tho
great vital organs, and by invigorat-
ing and giving them strength, enables
them to properly perform their func-
tons. 81 .3s
Vinol'a effect on the stomach is mar
ve1ous. It 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 muacle tissue, bono
structure and pure, rich, red blood.
We are in receipt of a letter from q
Savation Army woman which reads as
follows:
i 'sI took Vino1 after a bad attack Of
grippe, and 50 much good did it do me
that 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
zee us z We are always glad to
extol the merits Of Vinol.
We will give you back your
money II you don't find yinol
will do all we claim it will. Could
any one dosmore for you7

thev have had their moral health 1m-
paired. Let them recover their health
in private life by taking a rest! Their
platform and theis explanation of it
proves how necessary it is that they
do so, and do so quickly!" The poet
closes this fall out of the Liberal par

of the Conservatives.
Vardo, June 3.-Serious disturb
ances occurred last night among the
fishermen at Mehavn, the demonstra-
ton being in. favor of stopping the
killing of whales. The whaling sta
ton at Mehavn is completely de-
stroyed. Between 1900 and 1900
fishermen took part in the demon
stration. No person was injured. A
+ squad of policemen have left Vardo
for Mehavn, and troops are also ex-
pected.-Harstad, June 3.-The steam
er of the military school has left for
Mehavn The amtman wires from
Vadso that steamer carrying 21 men
from Vadso and % soldiers from Var
do has left the former place. 1t is
feared that fresh disturbances will
occur tonight, and what remains of
the whaling station may be, torn
down. The fishermen are holding a
meeting tonight at Skjotningsberg.
At Skjotningsberg as well as at
baaosfjord the fishermen are con-
templating similar demonstrations, as
at Mehavn. But a military force may
arrive from Harstad in time to save
the whaling station at >Skjotnings-
berg.
Scandinavianism at summer schools.
The Danes have raised money for
keeping some of their young country
men at the summer school in Upsala,
Sweden, this summer, and 60 Danish
students have applied for admission.
There will also be Norwegian stud
ents at the same school. Mr.. Braath-
en-, Sundsvall business man, who is
Norwegian by birth, has donated
$27O to Norwegian school teachers
who attend the school. Special
courses in Swedish will be given for
the benefit of the Norwegians and
Danes, and courses in Norwegian
have also been arranged. Mr.. Schib-
bye, a prominent educator III Kris
tiania, has promised to assist in con-
Quoting the courses. A special course
was arranged for the Danes last sum-
mer, and this summer similar adj
vantages will be offered to the Nor
wegians.
The Social Democrats have come
out in their platform in favor of the
union policy of the Conservatives.
So there is at least one point on
which the two extremes agree.
In Eyer, near Drammen, the Lib
erals and the Conservatives have fus'

the Social Democrats. Three are
other localities where a similar poll.

memory Of Black Hawk, the Indian
chief. When the Sacs and Foxes in
1882 refused to abide by the treaty in
which they had coded their territory
east of the river to the white man, and
Black Hawk rallied host of LOCO
braves to resist the advance Of the
pale faces, Rock Island was first made
a military station. Having induced
it's selection at a strategic point in the
early history, Black Hawk may per-
haps in that sense be regarded as the
patron saint of Rock Island.
What has made the city of Rock
Island we'll known among Swedish
Americans through out the nation is
the location there of the Augustana
College and Theological Seminary.
This institution of learning is the Mecca
for the Swedes OF the Lutheran faith
in this county. Upon a terrace on the
side OF commanding bluff midway be
tween Rock Island and Moline stand
the imposing buildings. Behind them
looms up the wooded hill, very appro-
priately named "Zion" Sions kulle J
by the founder OF the school. At it's
highest point is erected fag.pole
from which the national emblem is
swung to the breeze upon festal &C.
casions. A band stand is also erected
there from which at such times the
college band discourses music. In
front and below the buildings stretches
gently sloping tract which is the
property of the schoo]-the campus,
where the field sports OF the students
take place. The view from the build
ings is magnificent. Below at some
distance flows the mighty Mississippi.
It is here divided into two streams by
the densely wooded Rock island. The
arsenal buildings and clock tower are
in sight from this point. Beyond the
river may be seen the city of Daven.
port-its spires, .domes and manufac.
turing plants in their rich setting OF
wooded bluffs. On the other hand the
college buildings are in plain view
from the island, the river and the
city of Davenport. A more beautiful
location for a school cannot be found.
We found the school buildings com.
yparative]y deserted. The students in
most cases had departed for their sum.

power. About 1900 horse power can
be developed at oil times by tho gov
eminent dam and 5000 horse power by
the factory dam for Moline. The head
of water Is seven feet. This can be
increased by extending the reach from
the upper end of the island ard adding
to the height of the dam. The power
Is converted into electrical energy and
Is transmitted by wire to the various
factories as needed. Even during the
rush of the last war, the government
had ample power from the dam to run
all its machinery.
From the island we passed over to
Moline. Pillow, wagon, carriage and
other factories, acres in extent, cover
the river 'front.' The Deere plows are
known in nearly every state where sod
is turned. Space and time will not
permit an extended description. We
get on car and ride through the
cities OF Moline and Rock Island from
end to end. Away down at the end of
the line is large saw mill, one of
many located in the tri-cities. The
logs are ftoated down in large RATS.
The logs seemed to be of q better
quality than those milled at Mime
apolis. Thus the people nearest the
woods appear to be served with the
poorest lumber. A large raft was just
being towed in by steamer. The
logs had all sprouted and the raft
was as green as an island.
After supper we stepped onto the
ferry and we're speedily landed at the
opposite shore. We spent theeyening
looking over the city of Davenport.
It is German-American town and
has the characteristics of one. 1t has
many fine buildings. Among other
ornaments on the public square is q
memorial to the heroes of the Franco
Prussian war. A cheap variety of
street fair was in prag4ess. Fake
shows were set up all around the pub
lie square and numberless fakirs were
busy relieving the multitude, increased
by numbers from the cities over the
river, of their cash. After firing of
walking about seeing the sights we
went down to the pier. A large river
steamer had just came in. All was
hustle and activity. S:evadores were
carrying freight from neighboring
warehouse onto the boat. 1t was an
ODD sight to see an endless chain OF
men each carrying a barrel on his
back hurryjng up the gang plank. We
passed on down to the ferry landing.
Presently the boat bumped up along
side we'll loaded with pleasure seekers
from the other side. It was not much
more than 8 'clock and we we're alone
going back. The bell changed and
the boat hurried back to accOmmo cd ate
those waiting to come over. AS the
boat pushed out upon the dark river
leaving the gay city behind, in q pass

T 1PoN the banks Of the Mississippi as
- it flows in a long westward bend
between the commonwealth of Illinois
and Iowa are located three enterpris
ing and growing cities-Rock Island,
Moline and Davenport. Of these,
Davenport on the Iowa side, is the
largest, having population of SO OC0
people. Rock Island, the most widely
known of the three, has population
Of 10000, and Moline, a manufacture
ing center, has population of about
$4,000 people
In 1852 the father of the writer ar
rived in the United States from the
land of his birth, Sweden, and made
his way to the villages of Rock Is
land and Moline. From Chicago the
party proceeded by way of the Illinois
canal. Crowded upon canal boat, with
q mule on the tow path for motive
power, they landed at LaSalle, dis
lance of about one hundred miles,
after q tedious trip. There still re-
NAMED eighty miles OF the journey
overland. No conveyances were to be
had at LaSal lie or Peru and so the
young men started on foot for Moline
to secure teams. At Rock Island
father remained until 1868, when he
moved to Paxton, Ill. At that time he
could have purchased all the land he
might have desired at e8 an acre, and
he spent time hunting rabbits where
now lie busting city streets and beau
tiful residences. Now, after an ab-
sence of forty years, he returned to
view what changes had been wrought
in that time. Old landmarks are
scarce among the buildings. A few
business blocks from those days are
still standing. The majestic Father
of Waters, here half a mile wide, with
strong current, Is ever the same,
and the ferryboat still makes regular
trips across every fifteen minutes, al.
though two bridges now span the river
and electric cars bind the cities to.
gether with rapid inter. communication.
The city Of Rock Island derives it's
,me from the island that divides the
Mississippi for some distance up the
stream. The island Is 2 government
reservation and contains one of the
largest. arsenals and government works
In the nation. Upon the old public
square Of the city, now 9 beautiful
little park, Is q statue erected to the

The leaves of the trees. have been
eaten up by worms in certain parts
of Smaland, the branches standing
out as bare as in winter.
About 400 new men have been hired
to take the places of the striking
dock laborers in Stockholm.
1t leaves a mingled impression to
read about the serious labor troubles

Sweden.
A number of persons who are par

King Charles XII are making excava-

camp near Warnitza, Russia, in I'LL.
1t is known that he had house call
ed the royal house (Kungshuset),
which was built of stone, and the
foundation of this is said to have
been found. Remains of some other
buildings belonging to the camp have
also been found, as well as coins,
horse shoes, chains, broken swords,
etc.
The number of public schools has
almost doubled since 1868. In that
year there were 5000, now there are
about $4,000.
France is on the point of sending

skjold's South Pole expedition. DIR.
Charcot has planned the expedition,
and two great newspapers have start

The expedition was expected to leave

NORWAY,

This is the way Bjornson recently
wrote about the party in power:
'How does it happen that men who
are amiable and fairminded in their
private dealings become so unfair and
naughty, not to say brutal, in poll
tical matters? It is because they have
been too long in power, the acquisi-
ton of power is dangerous. They are
in the habit of caring only for the
Judgment of each other, for approval
by each other. They constitute a
complete state in the state. Within
the pales of this, in it's firmly estab-
ished machinery, the individual is
dragged down much lower than he
himself desires or his own bias carry
him. By being in power too long
