PROF. FALCONER
superintendent of Public Schools,
Waterford, N. ", Advises All
Rundown, Debilitated
People TO Take VinOl.

From men Of different professions all over
the country come such enthusiastic words Of
praise for our famous cod liver oil preparation,
Vinol, that there is absolutely no room for doubt
regarding its virtue.
Prof. Faconer writes: For some time suf-
fered with general debility and run down, de-
pleted system. | tried many remedies without
benefit; but Vnol has built up my rundown
system and made me we'll and strong. / con-
slider Vinol the most valuable preparation Of
cod liver oil, the best tonic, strengthened and
body builder known to medicine, and heartily
recommend il to every person in need Of good
blood tonic and vitality maker"
Our Vinol cures conditions like this because
it contains in concentrated form all the vital
principles Of cod liver oil, but not drop Of oil
to nauseate and upset the stomach and retard
its work. Vino is delicious to the TASTE
We guarantee that Vinsl will create strength
for old people, weak, sickly women and children,
and after severe sickness as nothing else can.
VinOl will also cure hacking coughs, chronic
colds, all throst and bronchial troubles. We
return money if it fails ]. @. PEcoR, Druggist.

dress to flag handcar. The children never
need any until they are ten or twelve, and then
they sometimes put off wearing any clothes at
all for two or three years after that So you
can see the Moro is not bothered about clothes;
his only trouble is keeping track Of how many
wives he has, which is usually anywhere from,
enc to one dozen, depending entirely on his rank
If by reason of birth he is a Chief or a Datto,
he always has wives galore and his home is a
harem. His wives are very much afraid of the
Americans, also Of the Dattos who reign supreme
over everything around. They have slaves and,
all manner of things too tedious to mention
When they are not fighting rs .ney are fighting
each other. The victorious Chief makes all
prisoners his slaves. For fear of firing you
with reading so much of no consequence will
close my letter by asking you to excuse haste.

nice, especially his daughter, who, | have reason
to believe, has the usual weakness for . ass
buttons that is so common in the West. A
soldier who conducts himself as a gentleman is

After stopping at seveveral places of interest
on the way-Denver, Salt Lake City and Sac
ramento-we finally parted, and reported at
The Presido where my Regiment was waiting.
| spent the remaining few days in Gods coun-
try in trying to have all the fun could and
was more than successful, as Frisco is second
to no city in the United States for good time,
New York could learn few things there in the
line of sport.
We sailed at noon October 3lst amid the
cheers and good wishes Of very large crowd;
then came the fun after we were out from land
about two days. really think every one on
board was sick. The Captain may have been
excepted. don't know to speak from expert
ence, as was very, very sick for two days my
self. We had rough weather all the way to
Honolulu, but we were all pretty good sailors
before that, and could have eaten the photo of
dead hen for few days, as salt air is fine
for anyone after they get over seasickness.
When one is sick to learn that the boat was
going down would be hailed with joy, as there
isn't anything half so bad as genuine seasick-
ness.
We stopped for two days at Honolulu to coal,
had fine time on shore and sailed for Manila
by way of Midway Island where we stopped for
short time and finally landed in Manila where
we received orders to cone down here to Min
danao TO try to subdue the Moros, or at least to
kill few of them. The people in the states
believe that it is as peaceful over here as it is
any place at home, but peace exists only in the
newspapers in the states. A few days before
coming down where we are at present in camp
the Moros surprised and killed an outpost for
the Twenty-eighth Infantry and have killed sew
eral men at different times since. Where we
are now we have guard of sixty-eight enlisted
men and two Commissioned Officers on daily, so
you see we are not, to use soldiers expression,
cooling any coffee over here. We are in the
heart Of the Moro land now where Captain
Pushing made his reputation subduing the Mo
ros, but can't see anything he accomplished as
it as bad here as ever. The Moro is decidedly
the worst thing the Americans have had to con-
tend with, on account Of the peculiar ideas he
has owing to his religious teachings. He is a
Mohammedan fanatic, and believes if he dies in
fight he is sure to go straight up. At any
rate he can fight and give the Americans good
time for their money. In stature be is small
but well developed, in color shade lighter than
an American Negro. He is sneaking, dishonesty
is hereditary ~ is filthy, ugly, mean-in fact he
is everything b the calendar that is bad His
weapons are principally spears and bolOs, but

MINDANAo, P. l., January II, 1904.

MlNDANAO, L. l., January ~, lJO4.
Mr. William II. Rice, NOrtgork, Ky.-Ay
Dear Friend: Perhaps you may be somewhat
surprised to receive letter from this part Of
the world. And to tell the truth am just a
little surprised at writing it, as we soldiers as
rule very rarely write to anyone except some
of our very dear friends; but will waive our
time-honored custom in your favor. as believe
made promise to the effect that would
write you some time from the Philippines when
was on furlough back in dear old Kentucky
After all there is no place to compare with
Kentucky in several respects.
will give you brief account of some Of
my wanderngs since we met last time in Mays
vile. reported at Fort Thomas at the expi-
ration of my leave Of absence, and was directed
to report to my former station, Fort Crook,
Neb., for duty; arrived there in due time and
for awhile did duty with my Company; later
was detailed as Mounted Messenger for the
Colonel Of the Twenty-secOnd Infantry, which,
by the way, is one of the greatest Snaps" in
the Army with more privileges than any other
enlisted man. took orders from no one ex-
cept the Colonel and never answered any calls
in the Company at all, and there were few
times was ever needed, as that is only one Of
the many things there is in the service that is
retained for merely a military formality. OF
course there is plenty to do over here for a
Messenger, but in the United States there is
hardly any, and they are positions that have to
be filed by some one.
We received orders for the islands some time
in September, to leave for Frisco about the
2lst Of October, so as to be ready to sail on
United States Transport Sheridan October 3lst
for Manila; but was sent by the Adjutant to
Grafton, W. Va, on business October l4th and
did not return in time to leave Fort Crook with
my command, but there were arrangements
made for me to follow the Regiment after re-
porting back to my station. OF course pre-
ferred to be with them when they left, but as
| could not, didlthe next best thing-applied
fer permission to spend two more days in
Omaha before starting, and had delightful
time trying to console the broken-hearted girls
over their fellows who had gone of to this
great war. Suffice it to say, was successful
in some cases-at least few.
But to all good things there must come an
end. My time finally came to leave, and |
think there mustshave been a rise in the Mis-
souri, river il tears count. OF course they will
recover and forget no doubt that there ever
was a soldier in Omaha.
