TIE RICHMOND NEWS AGAINl

Our esteemed contemporary comes
back at us, and repeats that the big
fellow has a perfect right TO borrow all
the money necessary to promote his
big schemes, while the little fellow, to
be "independent," should pay as he
goes. Coos further and says that the
thrifty laborer can always command all
the money he needs, and therefore
there is no excuse for not always hav-
ing the ready cash on hand. In the
same issue Of the News we learn that
50, 900 is due the laborers Of the Trigg
Company, and that no one is author
lied to pay them. In another paper
We read that the land sharks are after
these worthy men, and that they will
be forced TO submit TO a cut into their
hard earned wages of at least % per
cent. or go hungry.
Mr. j. Shelton Williams, in like
storm, would find some four-per.cent-
port into which TO rest secure against
he financial fury. 1t is idle to say
hat man who can give the security
sn't as much entitled to borrow dol
ar as the other fellow to borrow a mil
ion. And what a "good time" the
lay laborer would have ifhe could only
water" his wages as Morgan does his
t0cks.

TIE HAGrE COURT.

10 view Of the certainty that the
Venezuelan question will be submit
ted to the Hague Arbitration Court il
is of interest to know how that court is
TO be constituted. The powers which
took part in the Hague conference
reached an agreement that each Of
them-fOurteen in number-should Sc
lect four jurists Of acknowledged abili-
ty, high standing and acquaintance
with international law, aud that when
any controversy should arise four
of these should be selected to try the
case, two by each Of the parties in dis
pute, and that these four should Sc
lect a fifth as umpire, who should pre-
side over the court. OF course these
judges are not TO be taken from the
engaged in the controversy;
because they could not be expected TO
be impartlal.-Lynchburg News.

Our SCraWny
People

Not all thin people are in actual
i'll health, but undue thinness means
danger and "scrawny" thinness
means the result of wasting, when
wrinkles and loss of strength as
well as loss Of weight show that
something is wrong.
This something may be worry,
extra work, care of the sick, nervous
arrangement, dyspepsia, bowel
troubles, or the first sign of the
onset of serious disease like con-
sumption or kidney trouble.
How often we hear: "She'd be
pretty woman if she wasn't so
horribly thin " It's too bad, for
most of these thin women are sick.
The best thing we have found
for thin people, whatever the
cause Of the thinness, is Vinol.
1t seems to nourish at once, and
also to start an appetite for good
food. 1t was a great discovery to
combine the medicinal properties
of cod liver oil with organic iron
in such a powerful and yet pleas
neutrality-suspicious., ndwe'll be
glad to tell you how we got hold of
it, if you'll call at the store. Any
how, if you are thin, and want
more flesh and strength, try a
bottle of Vinol. If you aren't
pleased, we pay the money back.
Remember fat doesn't create fat; !
so you don't need the greasy kind
Of cod liver oil to increase weight. !
Vinol is better and tastes delicious.
