readily be supposed to have been Of
rude execution. The first great i'm.
prOvement, the substitution Of springs
for weights, was in 1850. The earliest
springs were not cOiled, but only
straight pieces of steel. Early watches
had only one hand, and, being wound
up twice a day, they could not be ex-
peCted to keep time nearer than fifteen
or twenty minutes in the twelve hours.
The dialS were Of silver or brass. The
cases had no crystals, but opened at
the back and front and were four or
five inches in diameter. A plain watch

Where Mans influence Is Fatal.


Man is the only animal which is al
ways accompanied by disease except
those creatures that are his companions
and share his patronage. There is rea-
son to believe that the denizens of the
forests, the weld, the rivers and the
ocean, so far as they escape mans in
fiuence, live, with hardly an exception,
healthy lives. Chronic ailments begin
with mans protection in the dairy.
stable and kennel. Man has created
artificial conditions with which the
thousand ills that flesh is heir to- are
associated. tits now his supreme task
TO bring these conditions into harmony
with the laws of his being. Sickness
and debility are not to be regarded as
natural and inevitable parts of our
heritage, but as the fruits of rebellion
against natures laws, and therefore to
be got rid Of. If the human family
dwelt in ventilated houses, breathed
pure air, lived temperately, with little
or no alcohol, and took daily exercise
in the open, it would perhaps know
little more of govt, rheumatism, can
Ger, fever, lumbagO, dyspepsia, asth-
ma and the host of infectious troubles
than do the lower animals.-LoDdon

REV. GEORGE W. rutland
Restored to Health by VinoI and
Strongly Endorses 1t.

Prominent men from all parts Of
the country are endorsing Vinol, and
strong testimonial letters from four
ministers Of the gospel and several
physicians have been received with
in week. Such unsolicited testi-
mOny as this is the best proof of mer-
it any medicine can have.
The Rev. George w. Rutland Of
Keene, n. H., writes: 81 have used
your cod liver oil preparation, Vinol,
as tonic, and do not believe there
is any other medicine that can equal
it. It built me up and strengthened
me when run down and overwOrked.
Vinel has done for me more than was
claimed for it."
I'VE honestly believe there is no
other remedy or cod liver oil prepara-
ton known to medicine that has the
healing, strengthening power which
Vinol has, and if It fails to create
strength and health for rundown, de-
biltated people, old people, weak.
