After Sickness
Take VinOI Our Great
Strength Creator.
IT GIVES ONE A SPLENDID
APPETITE.
AND QUICKLY REBUILDS
THE SYSTEM.
We Will Refund the Price Of
VinO1 if It Fails.

The worst part of sickness, frequent
", is getting over it.
The patients strength is depleted,
his system is generally demoralized,
relapses are continually feared, and
naturally.
The one thing to aid recovery is to
give the patient that which will enable
him to get strong, and at the same time
give strength direct to the different
organs of the body.
Nothing will do this like Vinol.
1t acts directly on the stomach, cree
ates a healthy appetite, and enables
the digestive organs to obtain the nee
essary elements to increase the weight
of the patient and to make new healthy
flesh and muscle tissue and pure, rich,
red blood.
The following is a letter showing
where Vinol was taken and did good
after a case of sickness. It reads as
follows:
81 wish to certify to the very great
benefit which has been derived from
the use of Vinol in my family. My
wife was very sick with the grippe and
afterward was wholly run down. One
bottle of Vinol places her on her feet
in better condition than she had been
before in six months. heartily rec
ommend and endorse it."-HENRY T.
STURTEvANT, 81 Huntington ST., Brock
ton, Mass.
Everything that is in VinoI is
plainly printed on the label of
each package.
We know VinOI is a splendid
preparation, and in many cases
we have been able to see for our
selves the wonderful results if
brings about.
Remember that we guarantee
Vinol and refund the purchase
money if you are not satisfied.

In speaking of the situation, one OF the
officers said: 1--WE do not know what the
employees want. There is one thing GER

any mill in the country for the quality OF
goods we are turning out. It is a large or

wages is regulated by the quality OF our

Birth of the Flag.

Much has been said about the birth
of the American flag and its originator,
Betsy Ross, but year after year some
thing new arises to create interest
afresh in this famous woman's history.
1t is probably known to but few that
a direct descendant of this worthy
woman resides in the person of DR..
William r. Bullock, of No. 925 Ielfer-
son street. This veteran physician was
seen by an Evening Journal reporter
this morning, and said:
Yes. 1 am direct descendant of
Betsy Ross on my mothers side, but
so much has already been said about
her that I don't think it is necessary to-
repeat it. Betsy Ross was originally a
Griscom, as was my mother, and the
relation comes from her side. Mrs
Ross was married three times, and
through the influence Of one Of her hus-
bands families became the official flag

COAL MINERS ARE
NOW IN SESSION
President Mitchell Present to
Advise the Scranton Con-
vention
DR.. NELL TO BRING ABOUT PEACE
Commissioner to Make Sliding Scale
commutations Requested BY Carroll
D. Wright and Judge Gray to Effect
Settlement of Cancellation Trouble.

Scranton, Pa, June 10. - National
President John Mitchell, of the United
Mine Workers, has arrived here to
attend the convention of Mine Work
ers which today took up the matter
of the operators representatives on
the board of Cancellation refusing TO
recognize the credentials of District
Presidents Nichols, Dettrey and Fahy,
who were selected as the miners con-
ciliators by vote of the joint execu-
tive boards OF the three districts.
MI Mitchell would make no state
ment as to what the convention was
likely to do He would only say that
the miners, he was assured, would ap-
proach the question in dispute in a
broad, liberal way, and that he trusted
the operators would do the same.
What the convention will do /, Of
course, can not foretell," said Mr..
Mitchell. 1T is up to the delegates. I"
He said he would advise them in
general way, but would not in any
manner attempt to control their ac-
tiOn.
The convention did not do much OF
anything today. further than to receive
credentials. The delegation from the
Schuylkill region did not arrive until
this afternoon, in consequence Of
which the real convention business
will not be under way until tomorrow.
Mr.. Charles p. Neill, of Washing
ton, d. c., who on Friday last was ap-
pointed by Judge Gray as commits
sioner to make the sliding scale COM
putations, arrived yesterday afternoon
from New York He had a conference
at the Hotel Jermyn with Mr.. Mitch
ell
DR.. Neill, it is understood, came here
here at the request of Commissioner
of Labor Carroll d. Wright and Judge
Gray, to use his good offices in bring
ing about an early and peaceable ad-
justment of the Cancellation difficulty.
Before coming to Scranton, he saw
representatives of the operators in
New York and Philadelphia. The fact
that the operators have said that the
miners conciliators were not regu-
larly elected without saying how, in
their opinion, the said representatives
might be elected, makes the presence
of Dr. Neill very desirable, as some
such disinterested third party acting
as a go-between may obviate all pos
sibility of trouble by effecting a meet
ing or possible overlapping of the
most the one side will give and the
| least the other side will take.
