Tell Why They Endorse Vinol so
Highly.

First: Vinol contains in a concen-
trated form all medicinal curative ele-
ments of cod liver oil, actually taken
from fresh Gods livers, but without q
drop of oil to nauseate and upset the
stomach, and retard its work, therefore
where old fashioned cod liver oil or
emulsions will do good, Vinol will do
far more good.
Second: Because Vinol is not pat
ent or secret medicine; it contains no
injurious drugs to react upon the sys-
tenn, and you know just what you are
taking, as everything it contains is
printed on the back label of every bot
tie.
Third: Because Vinol acts first upon
the stomach, creates a healthy appe-
tite, tones up the digestive organs,
purifies and eEriches the blood, and in
q natural manner health is restored
and strength is created.
Fourth: Since we first put Vinol on
the market our admiration for lit has
steadily increased, because it rarely
disappoiuts a customer, in fact we can
truthfully say we never sold medicine
more satisfactory to create strength for
old people, weak, sickly women ard
children, nursing mothers ana TO build
up strength after severe sickness.
Again Vinol is endorsed by eminent
physicians and guaranteed by over two
thousand of the leading druggists of
this country. These are some of the
reasons why we believe in Ninol. G. NJ.

Did you ever stop to think that
when a business man looks for a
clerk that he does not hunt for
the youth who talks sassy, uses
slang, smokes cigarettes or taps
beer kegs They look for the boy
who is neat in appearance, gentle
manly IN his actions, clean in his
talk and courteous to those whom
he meets. Although you may
think that no one watches you or
knows your character, it is safe to
say that there is not a business
man iii town but knows the char
acter of every boy in it. If you
wish to become a useful man it is
YOU and you alone that must &C.
complish it.-Talladega Mountain

PRODUCT OF rIILLS,

The product in one day OF the mills
of the Longman & Martinez great
works is enough to paint every house
and everything made of wood in city
with the L. & NJ. Pure Paint.
In use thirty years; several million
houses painted with L. & NJ.
LIZ NJ costs about 21.20 per q lion.
The L & M Paint is the best and
cheapest, because the l. & NJ Zinc
hardens the J. & M White Lead and
makes it paint more surface and wear
for longer time than any other paint.
l. Il M costs about 81 30 per gallon.
1t only requires gallons of this
celebrated paint and 3 gallons OF Lin
seed Oil at so cts. per gallon to paint a
moderate sized houss. Therefore, a
property owner ought not pay 81 so per
gallon for LiDseed Oil, which he must
do when a ready -for.use paints bought.

ECHOES FROM MACON CONVEN.
TlON.

After spirited debate the conven-
tion decided that the constitution of
of the Childrens' Chapters must be
changed. As it stands, only lineal de-
cendants of Confederate Veterans can
hold membership. Some OF the most
prominent women of the order were on
the affirmative side of this question
Mrs. Rounsaville, of Rome, Mrs. Jack
son and Mrs, McCabe, of Atlanta Miss
Anna Benning, of Columbus; Mrs,
johnson, of CassVille. The amendment
to the constitution was introduced by
Mrs. P. w. Godfrey, of Covington, and
ably championed by her. Mrs. Hull.
the president, left the chair to add the
right of her approval to the change
A committee was appointed, and here.
after the constitution of Childrens
Chapters will be more nearly in accord
with those of the Daughters. The OBJ.
ject of Childrens' Chapters is not to re.
strict their influence within q narrow
circle, but to include all those children
who can show that their families were
loyal and give them an opportunity Of
studying the principles for which their
relatives, as we'll as their families
fought.

Traverse des Sioux Monument.


An attempt will be made by the
Traverse des Sioux monument COM
mission to secure from the next legis-
lature an appropriation wherewith to
erect a marble shaft to mark the spot
whereon the famous treaty was signed
in July 1851.
Tradition says the council between
the Indians and Governor Alexander
Ramsey was held on the Traverse
farm of La Croix, near huge boulder
on which the gold and trinkets were
heaped at the time of the signing. and
it is here that the commission will
recommend the erection of a monu-
ment to mark the place where the
Sioux decided away one of the rich
est areas in the world.
The treaty of Traverse des Sioux
was unquestionably one of the most
important events in the early history
of Minnesota. Late in June, 1851,
Governor Ramsey and Luke Lea,
81
Travelled to Traverse des Sioux, then
the largest trading post in the north
west, to meet the leading chiefs of the
Sisseton, Wahpeton and Dacotah
tribes. A delay followed and it. was
not until July Is that all of the lead
ers expected had arrived. On that
date the United States commissioners
opened the grand council and on July
"a the treaty was completed and
signed.
The signing was very ceremonious.
After the customary pipe had been
passed from Ramsey and Lea around
the circle of powerful chiefs, the docu-
ment was read in English and then
translated into the Dacotah tongue by
Rev. S. r. Riggs. Throughout the
proceedings the Indians were most at
tentive, and at the end each chief sig
ni6ed his acquiescence by advancing
to the table of the secretary and
touching his pen.
ACCOiu1uS W Cuc C6iuS VI blc treaty,
the Indians were 10 receive $3.50. 900
in annual payments for the vast re-
gion, which included all of the land
north of the Minnesota river and con-
tanned approximately 30,000,000 acres.
They retained reservation, ten miles
in width, extending along the river
from a point few miles above New
Ulm to the headwaters, and the fail
ure of the government representatives
to make the payments properly has
always been regarded as one of the
primary causes for the bloody out
break of 1862.
The present monument commission
has been given an appropriation of
$500. This will probably be sufficient
to buy several acres of land and
driveway to the treaty spot, but
larger appropriation will be needed
for the erection of the monument.

Ant as a Medicine.

Having thoroughly exploited the
curative powers of the bee. writer's
have now apparently turned to the
ant. The latter like the former owes
it's medical virtues to the formic acid
that it contains. But while the living
bee is able to administer a hypoder-
mic injection of the drug, the ant must
be killed in order to get it. If we are
to judge from some recent French in
vestigations formic acid is likely to
prove valuable as stimulant and
tonic, but nothing equals golden grain
belt beer as a refreshing and toning
drink. Order of your nearest dealer

They BoBahs BurnInE Houses.


one of the strangest businesses In
ancient Rome is mentioned by Juvenal
In his "Satires," and we hear Of 1t also
from historians. 1t consisted OF buy
ing houses on fire. The Spectator
hurried to the scene, attended by
slaves carrying bags Of money and
others carrying tools, judged the
chances of salvage and made bid to
the distracted house owners, who were
glad to accept anything as rule. The
bargain struck In all haste, this earli-
est of fire assurers set his slaves to
work and secured what he could.
Sometimes even he put out tie flames
and so made "a coup. 1t was bust
ness for capitalists, but the poorest
who speculated in a small way could
hardly lose II he had presence of mind
enough to grasp the chances.
Thus Cato the elder, and. above all,
Crassus laid the foundations Of their
wealth. The latter had n passion for
such gambling. He gradually collected
a force OF carpenters, masons and such
artifcers = slaves, of course : which
reached 500 men. Not only did he buy
houses on fire, but also, enlarging upon
the common practice, he mado bid for
those adjoining which stood in danger
His proposals were commonly vel
come. so helpless were the people and
so great the peril. BY this means Cras-
sus became the greatest owner OF
house property in Rome.

stories abound to illustrate the power
possessed by great speakers and act
or6 TO stir the emotions by the tones
Of JEhG voice. 1t is said OF the elder
Booth that he brought tears to the eyes
of a company upon one occasion by the
way In which he uttered the opening
words, "Our Father" of the Lords
Prayer.
A story is told of the great irish ora
tor, o'Connsn. An attack had been
made upon him in the house OF com
mons When o'ConnelI arose to reply,
his lofty brow was black with thunder
and his arm uplIfted as II to strike.
Then, checking himself, he said, But
the gentleman says he loves Ireland"
Lowering his tone to the Ripping muir
muir OF a summer brook, he continued,
.I have no words of bitterness OF re-
preach for any man who loves Ire
land" The pathos in the fragmentnry
utterancS OF the last word brought
tears TO the eyes OF many veterans OF
the house.

years ago, when the italian bees
were nrst introduced In the United
states, these bees, having marks diff
ferent from the common bees already
here, were easily distinguished, and
after any beskeeper had obtained the
Italian bees they could be observed
and their range easily noticed. If

are located they will not go very far,
perhaps mile in range, but if 1t Ii

TIE WORD ..Trnm."

Residents Of Great Britain call street
cars trans. The term Is old. Three
hundred and ffty years ago an Eng
lIshman left the following item in his
will: ITO the amendinge of the high
wave or tram from the weste ende of
BridRegalt, in Barnard castle, 20 shll-
linEs." This tram" was plank road.
Whether it was the ancestor Of the
tram of today or merely an etymolog-
Ical relation is not quite clear. The
forefather of all the trans was
Scandinavian word meaning log. In
time tram in Scotland came to mean
beam, cart shaft or the cart itself,
ana perhaps It Is to this rather than
to the tram that was plank in a log
road that the modern sense. traces its
origin. At any. rate, etymologists nf-
drm that the derivation from the name
of Benjamin Outram, who improved
rail tracks about 1900. is absurd.
