OLD AGE.
Not Time of Life or Length of Years
but Condition of Bodily Tissues

Not Time of Life or Length of Years,
but Condition of Bodily Tissues
said celebrated London physician,
and just so long as the bodily tissues
can be kept from wasting and built
up just SO long can old age be kept at
bay, and people will be alert, alive,
active and young.
Our well known druggists, Bell
Bros, say: ''Our cod liver oil Drepa-
ration, Vinol, is the greatest tissue
builder and lnvigorator in the world
for old people. There is nothing else
known to medicine that can equal it.,
because Vinol contains in a concen-
trated form all of the body building
life-giving principles of cod liver oil
actually taken from fresh Gods livers,
and is not a stimulant which produces
bad after effects. We have letter upon
letter from grateful old people whom
Vinol has strengthened and blessed
with robust health. Vinol invigorates
the stomach first of all, enabling it to
separate from the food the elements
needed for rich red blood, healthy
body material and sound, steady
nerves. In this way it repairs worn out
tissues, checks the natural decline and
replaces weakness with strength
Mr.. a. j. Baker of Evansville, In
diana, says there is no other medicine
in the world equal to Vinol for old
people. He would not take thousand
dollars for the good it has done him.
The grand-niece of Alexander Ham
ilton, Mrs. Sarah j. Windrom, says:
''Vinol is god send to old people. !"
She is seventy-six years old, and is
active and well, thanks to the vitaliz-
ing effects of Vinol.
We wish every man or woman in
Dawson who ''feels old, " whether they
are so in years or not, would try VII
mol on our guarantee to return their
money if they are not satisfied after
using it. BELL BROS, Druggists.

Recorder printed this item of local
interest:
''Mr. J. H. Fulford of Dawson came
down to Fort Gaines last Tuesday
afternoon to consult with Messrs.

IMPORTANT LEGISLATION
OF interest to Everyone Who Wears
a Watch or Contemplates
Buying One.

Both branches of the United States
congress have passed an act prohibit
ing the use of the words, Omitted
States Assay" or any devices calcu-
lated to convey the impression that
the United States government certifies
to the quality of gold or silver used
in the arts.
This stamp, fUnited States Assay"
has been the means of many acts of
fraud being perpetrated on the unsus-
pecting public, many thinking it was
guarantee made by the government
when the assay Office had nothing
whatever to do with the scheme. This
scheme goes to show how far some of
the manufacturers will go to deceive
the public, and how easily the public
can be fooled.
Some legislating should now be done
against the stamping OF guarantees
for five, ten, twenty and twenty-five
years in plated watch cases, which will
not wear one-fourth, and often not
one tenth, that length of time.
The public would not have been
fooled on the Omitted States Assay"
stamp if they had dealt with the Jew
eler whose business it is to know such
goods, and it might be we'll to say
that the country is flooded with such
goods now, as well as the bogus gold
filled cases, which will be found in the
hands of those who either don't know
what theyare selling or else don't care
for any thing but the present and the
almighty dollar, however it may
come.
Take a word of warning, and buy
your Watches, Jewelry and Silver
ware at Adams Jewelry Store, and
don't have anything to regret.

Three Big Bank Failures In Chicago.

Three OF the largest financial institu-
lions In the West--the Chicago National
bank. the Home Savings bank. and the
Equitable Trust company. all OF them
controlled by John II. Walsh OF Chicago
and in great measure owned by him-sus-
pended operations Monday. Their af-
fairs will be liquidated as rapidly as pos
sible. and they win go out of business
Mr. Walsh. who was the president OF the
Chicago National bank and OF the Equit-
able Trust company. and all the other
officers and all the directors Of the Chic
ago National bank have resigned.
The immediate cause OF the collapse
Of the Walsh institutions is said to be
the very large amount OF money which
they have loaned to his private enter
prises. notably the Southern Indiana rail-
way, and the Bedford Quarries company
of Indiana. Mr. Walsh says that IL he
could have had a little more time and
been left untrammeled I'm his operations
he could have saved his banks, and made
enormous profits for himself and his as
sociates. He bases this statement on his
estimate of the value OF the bonds Of the
Southern Indiana Railway company The
liabilities OF the three institutions are es-
timated in the aggregate at s26. 900 900.
Against this amount. the banks and the
trust company have resources that are.
on conservative estimate worth $l6,-
0O0. 900.
The directors OF the two banks. as well
as Mr.. Walsh. who has turned all of his
private property as well as that stand
ing in the name OF Mrs. Walsh, have
pledged real estate and securities valued
at 5000 900. making a total in assets OF
$4,000. 900, estimating the railroad bonds
at $S,OOO,O0O against see 900, 900 liabil-
tiles.
