A SICkLY CHILD.


A delicate constitution exposes 2
child to all sorts of ailments. Do not
waste any more time and money trying
to doctor each complaint separately.
Doctor the Constitution
Vin- Tone takes right hold of any
weak system and builds a good
healthy foundation.
1t puts life and vigor into the body
and mind.
That is what the child needs, that is
what any person who is weak and
sickly needs. Vitality.
People grow thin, pale, even become
so ill they are obliged to give up their
occupation, when there is nothing
wrong with them excepting they are so
tired, so weak, their vitality is so low.
To say that Vim Tone is worth its
weight in gold to those suffering from
a lack of energy is to speak lightly of
it. It is invaluable as it begins its
work with the first dose and in
remarkably short space of time the
patient is restored to healthy, vigor-
Gus condition.
Many miserable wrecks have been
transformed into strong happy men
and women by this marvel of recent
medical discoveries, YIN Tone.
Good for little folks and big folks
too. Pleasant to take.

Life Insurance work n Profitable
Field for Women. Says One Tn
thusiastic Feminine Solicitor.

Life insurance work offers a profita-
BILE field to women nowadays. If she be
bright and energetic she easily can real
ize an income of So 600 year Her COM
missions depend entirely on her own en-
deavors.
THE possibilities for women In the
life insurance are limitless," said one of
the best known women workers. with
all the women that are working at IL
now 1t still is a practically unworkee
field.
From my experience in the business
| should say that ii Is the best possible
line for a woman TO enter. She is abso-
lutely independent, and, best of all. she
knows she is making money. Further
more, she Is able to lift herself out of the
rut OF woman's occupations In general.
I'm life insurance a woman has the
most broadening experience. She meets
all classes OF people In short time she
develops new faculties. She learns TO
read human nature. which is the telling
part OF the business. For her own benefit
should advise any young girl or woman
whose circumstances compel her to earn
her own living to grasp these excellent
opportunities"

ing. kicking the ball, ETC., much
pleasanter game might have been
the result.
And yet the Hancock Journal
feels terribly offended that a return
game is not played. Its reporter
even draws on his imagination to
the effect that such game has been
refused. Such is not the case. Not
one word has been said by the Han
cock management in regard to their
return game, but we will say that
If the game is played it will be
devoid of the rough and tumble
features which were so much in
evidence at the Hancock game.
BE that as it may, the game was
played and it was fairly won, even
though from our friends of the
Hancock Central High School as
from most of the losers from that
town comes the time honored wall
1.-THE umpire robbed us. Really,
it is amusing to anyone who knows
what basket ball is, and who saw
the game.
Now, word to our friends on the
Journal staff. 1t is . positive fact
that Mr.. Davis urgently requested
the management at Hancock to
provide an umpire. They insisted
on it that there was no one who
understood the game. Yet before
fifteen minutes had elapsed every
man, woman and child presumed to
know more about the game than the
editors of the rule book themselves.
At the end Of the first half Mr..
Davis offered to retire in favor of
some one more satisfactory, but
even this was refused And yet
they claim they were robbed At
any rate they were not insulted

Yinkow, Feb. 25.--viceroy Alexieff
has caused a proclamation to be issued
throughout Manchuria notifying the
pan on account of Japan's treacherous
attack on the Russian fleet. This
proclamation is under six headings, as
follows:
l.: Warning the inhabitants that
they must prevent the encroachment
Of Chinese on Russian territory.
3. Russian and Chinese interests are
declared to be identical, but, as China
says she wishes to maintain neutrality,
therefore all officials in Manchuria
instead of hindering must assist the
Russian army.
8. The people shall continue their
occupations and shall treat the Russian
troops with confidence.
4. The railroad telegraphs are left to
the protection of the people, who will
be held responsible in case they are
injured.
s. Warning the people not to obey
the threats of the chunchus (bandits)
who are the curse of Manchuria, but
to assist the troops to exterminate
them; if they do not assist in this they
will be treated as robbers.
6. If the people antago1ize the troops
or show them hatred they will besex-
terminated without mercy. The gov
eminent is taking all steps, In any
event, to protect it's interests.
The proclamation makes an earnest
appeal for the sympathy of the peo.
