I'm the daughter of my father"
And he's a millionaire.
And so it's only natural
That men should deem me fair;
At least, that they should tell me 50
But oh. I wish that I could tel
The false and true apart
They flock around me at a ball
And beg me for a dance:
The sentimental kind they try
To kill me with glance.
And some of them write verses,
And they rave about my eyes
On. isn't there a tombstone
That to lovers words applies?
There's one of them who tears his hair
And threatens suicide.
And then another one who swears
He'll come some night when I'm asleep
And bear me far awary-
How wish that you would tell me
What a maiden ought to say
And then there's one who never comes.
He leaves me quite alone,
Though oftent1mes meet his eyes
When 1 quickly raise my own;
Perhaps perhaps, We're he to come
With tender words TO WOO
on. won't you please tell me
What a maiden ought TO do2

This report was adopted by the council,
but it did not solve the tangle. The
next thing was to draw up contracts.
Three kinds of coal were needed-lump
coal at the fire and police station for
heating; nut coal at the city hall and Au-
ditorium for heating, and steam coal tor
operating the city electric light plant.
Evidently the council Ahad accepted bids
on two kinds of each variety of coal
needed. The only way in which a con-
tract could be drawn covering such. a pc
culiar arrangement was to have it set
.......... company, :-.-.... Kinds OF coal
at .......--. price, in such quantities as
might be needed. This left the city free
to purchase its coal from either the
Southwestern Fuel company or the Web
ster-Tullock company.
1t is very doubtful whether such con-
tracts are worth the paper they writ
furnish coal at stipulated price, but do
not bind the city to purchase any coal at
that price. One coal man said yesterday:
Il don't believe such a contract will
stand in law. As L understand it, a con-
tract must bind both parties. In these
proposed contracts the city is not bound
to do anything, while the coal companies
are bound to furnish coal at stipulated
price.
Mayor Bergundthal is said to be dis
satisfied at the way things stand, and he
has not yet signed either of the contracts
on behalf of the city. Fred Webster has
signed the contract for the Webster-Tul-
lock company. but the Southwestern COM
pany has not yet signed its contract.

turned down and the council asked TO
Straighten things out.

THE STORY or ViNOL
By VIM. L. Gokay, Druggist.

Our experience with medicine ex.
tends over many years. We've had
ample opportunity to watch thousands
OF them and their results. We've new
err seen any medicine sell itself as does
Vinol. Customer after customer comes
for Vinol again and again. That's the
best kind of testimonial. They
wouldn't want second bottle il the
first gave no help or relief.
We want everybody in Bennington
to know the value Of Vipol and how
we stand behind it.
Vinol is popular andit takes because
it possesses merit. Vinol contains all
the curative, strength creating elem
ents of cod liver oil, without the naus
eating, disagreeable taste and smell of
the oil. Any one can take it without
making face. Old and young can di-
gest it. There are many limitations of
Vinol made from drugs and chemicals
which are said to have the same effect
as Vinol, but please remember the
makers of Vinol are the only ones in
the world who know the secret of sepa-
rating the curative elements OF the
Gods livers from the oil and grease,
and who can make for you prepare
tion containing all of the real alkaloids
or medicinal principles of cod liver oil
and not fool you with chemicals said
to resemble the cod liver oil alkaloids.
Therefore there can be nothing else
just as good.
Vinol gives you a hearty appetite.
1t does more. 1t tones up the stomach
and builds up the system in many
ways. It's tonic-s blood waker, a
flesh creator and tissue builder. It's
one of the best things known to medi-
cine for weak lungs, wasting diseases
or general debility.
We've sold hundreds of bottles Of vi
mol and guaranteed them. Hardly one
in hundred comes back to US. Ifyou
have not yet used Vinol we strongly
commend it to you. Your money re-
funded If it does not benefit. VIM. L.
