connection with the home treatment
of colds and is still in greater house

the old-fashioned aids German Syrup
will cure a severe cold in quick time.
It will cure colds in children or grown

Governor Chamberlain has been de-

school land to the state. The follow

the facts of the case discussed:
By vote of two to one, the COVER

yesterday disposed OF certificates of
sale of school land aggregating over
1000 acres held up for cancellation
on the grounds of alleged fraud in the
application as reported by the grand
jury of April last.
This result came after a long dis
cussion of the merits of the charge
of alleged fraud in the procurement OF
the applications for the purchase of
the land, and the majority of the board
having decided in favor of the issu-
ance of the deeds to the land involv-

Pendleton How to Ward IL Off.
Some people at so call themselves
old. and really appear so, while others
at 20 seem active, vigorous and
young.
A reporter of the East Oregonian
happened in the store of Brock &
McComas Co., our local druggists,
the other evening, and this subject
was brought up. Said Mr.. Brock, of
the above firm, ut is a fact that we
see it illustrated every day right here
in Pendleton. 1t is not years; old
age does not begin at any set time,
but it is loss of vital force that makes
person old. a severe sickness, weak
ened digestion, thin blood, or poor
circulation soon starts vitality on the
wane and then person rapidly ages.
ION the other hand" continued Mr..
Brock, ''if the people of Pendleton
only knew how our cod liver prepara-
tion, Vinol, wards off old age, we
would not have clerks enough in our
store to supply the demand.
"You see Vinol contains all the
vitality making, bodybuilding prin-
ciples of cod liver oil, but without a
drop of the system-cIogging oil. II
strengthens digestive organs, makes
rich, red blood, repairs worn tissues
checks the natural decline and re-
places weakness with strength.
"One good customer of Vinol, who
/ is IS years of age says he would not
take $1,000 for the good 1t has done
him, and we wish every aged person
in Pendleton would try Vinol on oui
guarantee to return money If 1t falls
