OLD AGE.
Depends Not Upon Years, But
Upon Vital Force.

In Aberdeen lately herr has been
"A good dea of discussion in regard to
old people. Some at fifty years call
themselves old, and really appear so,
while others at seventy years seem
active, vigorous and young.
Ii is not years, but il is loss of vital
force that makes a person old. Weak
ened digestion, thin blood and poor
circulation Don start functional pow
ers and vitality on the wane, and
then the symptoms of old age quick
ly appear.
MIR. Scrape of the Phoenix Drug
Co. says THAT old feeling may be
warded of, and we wish every person
i'm Aberdeen who feels old, whether
they are so in years or not, would try
the great discovery, Vinol. We know
that il has vital principles which Will
in a natura name strengthen diges-
ton, send rich, red blood coursing
through the veins, and give new life
and strength to every organ of the
body, and that is what makes the old
feel young again.
Mrs. III. w. Avery says:
AT The age of eighty-nine l felt
the need of a tonic, something to
strengthen and build me up. For
some time | have been taking Ninol,
and | have found hat it brings vigor
and renewed vitality to the aged a.
nothing else WILL
''Ninol repairs worn tissues, checks
the natural decline and replaces weak
ness with strength. 1t is an ideal
body builder for old folks.
1--WE promise you that Vinol is,
first of all, agreeable, because it con-
tains no fishy oil. Second, that it is
a genuine cod liver medicine, con-
tanning all the medicinal curatives
and strength-making elements taken
direct from fresh cod livers; and third,
we will return your money if il does
not do exactly what we claim for IT,"

A cancer means death. But there are CON
ditions of life worse even than death. Cancerous
ulcers can at least be dressed, and the foul
discharges disposed of satisfactorily but when
the mucous membrane becomes infiamed by
Catarrh there is no opportunity of dressing
the parts
The sufferer, in the first stages, before the
cold becomes chronic, can secure n quasi state
of cleanliness by a frequent use OF his hand
kerchief; but the dreadful dropping down"
into the throat finally sets in, and the victim
is absolutely helpless.

Immediately relieves all discharges both out
ward through the nose, and inward into throat
A single box usually cures. and the FIRST
APPLICATION relieves that dreadful dropping
down. No cocaine, no opiates, no narcotics.

properties. Price. Scots Postage prepaid.

Care of Young Chicks.

The one great cause of mortality
among young chicks is indigestion.
This is caused, not from lack of
any kind of food, but because they
are fed and pampered too much.
They are fed too soon after they are
Matched. For at least thirty-six
hours they do not need any food, it
being necessary for them to fully
digest the yolk of the egg which
they absorb just before Matching.
Another most essential thing is that
chicks should have plenty of small,
sharp grit. Before feeding them
anything else, let them take all the
git they will and keep it constantly
before them. If you have not the
regular chick grit, coarse sand will
take its place, though not as good as
the grit. This and plenty of exer-
else ought to make your chicks
thrive. Of course, you must look
out for lice and grease their heads
and under their wings occasionally
with any kind of grease mixed with
a few drops of coal oil or carbolic
acid.

The vast quantities of printed
matter prepared by the government
and placed in the hands of congress
for distribution is almost beVond
apprehension. Each senator and
member is allotted a certain num-
Der OF each document or publica-
ton, these covering every possible
SUBJECT upon which report can be
based. That portion designed for
congress is brought to the capitol
and stored in the basement until
called for. In some cases members
nave the accumulated store of years
OF service to their credit and durino,
contests in their districts draw out
all that is due them. Ordinarily
however, the average member sends
out his allotment just as soon as it
IS received. Incidentally it can be
SAID that the government might
save vast sum in its printing bills
II 1t confined itself to printing re-
ports and documents of interest to
the people. It appears to be too
o1Gen the case that documents are
printed because the report has been
compiled and possibly some one at
some time may have called for in
FORMATION upon the subject.

SUNDAY SERMON

The world is more indebted to
maglcians and astrologers and fana
tics and necramancers and wife men
who have spent their lives seeking
the philosophers stone that can be
realized. The dreamers and vision
aries and superstitious ones of earth
have been the pioneers of every
great discovery-the avant couriers
of the onward progress Of the age.
The materialist uses only the eyes
of his body and that but dimIy.
The wise men see images and hear
voices and count omens and bear
upon their weird faces the look of
wonder which is the characteristic
of prayer. They are engaged in an
eternal quest knocking at every
closed door and exploring every
fathomless mystery and cutting
every Gordian knot and challenging
every proposition and following
every ray of light that streams
down from the skies and leads the
way to the spot where some new
messiah is Graded and anticipating
the alteration of the world.

Other people see stars but these
people see his star-the bright par
ticular luminary swimming into the
field of vision on an orbit of its own
and never ceasing its heaven-ap-
pointed cycle till it stands over the
place where the young child lies.
The world has never yet rightly
estimated such men. 1t has neg
lected them and scorned them and
starved them and banished them
and nailed them to the cross and
cast their bodies forth to lie un-
buried in the naked health. Never
theless in all ages they have existed
the star gazers. Jerusalem and
Judea and Palestine slept on oblivi-
Gus of the fact that their territory
had been chosen as the theater OF
the grandest event since the world
was launched upon its mission but
three wise men in far-off Persia be-
held the starry signal kindled IN
Oriental skies and made journey
across the known world to lay their
tokens of devotion at the feet of the
babe-the king-the priest-gold
and frankincense and myrrh. They
were the pioneers of a world pill

glorious harvest, the opening notes

lands owned by Joseph Bergh and
will do some extensive prospecting.
The gentlemen intimated that they
would do some deep drilling which
would probably reach a depth Of
one thousand feet to prove beyond a
doubt the theory Of locating ore at
a depth not dreamed of by the
miners Of early days. Mr.. Penglaze

On Saturday, April 28th, at 1920
a. M, the spirit of Henry Walter
Schumacher. returned to God who
gave it; altho his condition had be-
come critical the immediate mem
bers of the family were unaware OF
the approaching end and a loving
mother, a devoted father, could en-
brace but one thought-their son
must get better, surely he will re-
cover. Their greatest fears how
ever were realized when DR.. Nc
Govern, the family physician made
a professional call a short time be-
fore dissolution took place and in
formed those at the bedside that
the end was near. Henry Walter,
second eldest son of Mr.. and Mrs.
A. Schumacher, was born May Sd,
1888, SO that at the time of his
death his age was II years, II mos.
and 26 days. He was a most excel
lent young man Of lofty ideas, pos
sessed of a noble disposition that
lead to kindly utterances, and bene-
VIOLENT acts, and if he could not say
a kindly word of another, neither
would he say harsh things of them.
He was a member OF the senior class
in our high school, an exemplary
student, and worked with an en-
ergY and will that ultimately brings
success in any undertaking. But
he has gone, gone, before he had
reached the zenith of lis usefulness.
He will be missed in the commun-
ity, and his untimely demise is deep
ly regretted by everyone. The
bereaved parents have the heartfelt
ympathy of their many friends in
this their home of great sorrow.
About a year ago he took a severe
cold from which he never fully re-
covered, which, eventually develop
ed into a pulmonary trouble and
lastly removed from our midst a
young and noble life that had put
forth buds, and given every promise
to bloom in all their glory and
spleudor. The funeral took place
Monday at o'clock p. NJ, and the
services were conducted by the Rev.
r. Q. BENEFITS, at the family resi-
dence. The floral offerings were
beautiful and the most elaborate
ever seen here. Interment was
made in the family lot in the Van

eye was unusually lar ge.

From now until the end OF the
session, which by the way, is still
indefinite, there will be greater act
ivity in congress. For weeks the
senate, practically, has done nothing
other than to consider the railway
rate bill. It's committees however
have been working and the CLAIM,
is made that short steps will be
taken with the appropriation bills.
All these measures are still to be
considered by the senate while the
house is we'll along with this line Of
work. With the appropriation bills
out of the way, little remains to be
done, but the appointment of con-
terence committees to adjust legis
lative differences always necessi-
tates more or less delay When
either house disagrees to a PROPOSE
Glon or amendments can not be
passed the bill goes to conferences
and weeks are consumed TRYING to
adjust differences. This is still the
status OF the statehood bill and no
report has been made by the con
ference committee. When all these
matters are considered, members as
sert that it will be well along the
last OF June before adjournment is
reached.
