An Open Letter TO the Public
FROM A WELL-KNOWN DRUGGIST

To Whom 1t May Concern:
OF late there has been a good deal
Of discussion in regard to advertised
medicines and their value. We want
to say to every man, woman and child
in this vicinity that the most valuable
preparation of cod liver oil,- the best
tonic reconstruction, health restorer and
strength-creator we have ever sold in
our store is Vinol.
Vinol is not patent medicine; it
contains no injurious drugs, and it act
ually does contain all of the medicinal
curative elements of cod liver oil, taken
from fresh Gods livers, but without
drop of oil, and is delicious to the
taste.
Vinol is recognized throughout the
world as the greatest strength-creator
for old people, weak, sickly women,
children, nursing mothers, and after
a severe sickness.
Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis and all throat and
lung troubles. Unequalled to create
an appetite, and make those who are
too thin, fat, rosy and healthy.
Vinol is sold on positive guarantee.
Call and get a Vinol booklet.

The legislators at Madison are
wrestling with the law relating to the
taxation OF mortgages. The present
bungling and unjust law ought to be
replaced by law exempting all cred
its from taxation. This Is what a
majority OF the state tax commission
recommends; and they are right-ab-

not more quickly and fully discovered
that in this vital process lies the
secret remedy for thousand Ills, II
not "the fable fountain of immortal
youth" Men have lived weeks with
out eating; days without drinking.
and nights without sleeping; but how
long can we live without breathing?
Twenty ounces of food and few
pints of water will supply the body
one day; but, upon 4 low estimate. It
requires thirty thousand pints OF air
in the same length of time.
The delicate machine which this
volume of air enters is said to contain
over 7O0,0OO,0 600 air cells, or little
workshops. Into the walls of these
there flows, like the sewerage of a
great city, the foul, yenous blood OF
the body. III these remarkable work
shops it is quickly transformed into
a rushing red torrent filled with life
giving oxygen from The air. What q
wonderful inventicEI What a miracu-
lous processl And yet you are trust
ed with operating one of these iEstru-
ments.
Would you note its magical effect
under proper conditions? Then stand
erect. Open the doors and windows:
or, if you are sick in bed. have them
opened. Lift your chest and chin, and
breathe the invigorating air Of heal
ven, till the muscles of your abdomen
fairly bound with Joy. Now. isn't that
a tonic. Then take it many times a
day. You can repeat the dose often.
Even as I write the fresh air tickles
my finger tips; for when we breathe
deeply, it goes to all parts OF the
body.
