PROMINENT EDUCATOR
Declares VInOI is the Best Cod Liver
Oil Preparation.

There has been a good deal Of dis
cussion in New Haven regarding the
merits of cod liver Oil preparations, and
whether or not cod liver oil and emul-
sions that upset the stomach have
any medicinal virture; therefore, the
following letter from M, A. Cassidy,
superintendent Of schools, Lexington
KY, will lbe read with interest:
Il am pleased to state that after
having used and tested the different
cod liver Oil preparations on the mar
ket, l find Vinol to be far superior to
them all 1t is palatable and pleasant
to the taste, in fact, the oily, fishy
taste of cod liver oil is done away with
entirely, and the curative and strength
ening properties of Vinol are truly re-
markable.
''Vinol built up my system, trength-
ened my nerves and made a new man
of me- and heartily endorse it as the
most efficacious and agreeable cod liver
oil preparation on the market
Our local druggist Mr.. VIM. H. Hull,
when asked his opinion in regard to
Vinol, replied, I'VE firmly believe Vim
oil to be the best preparation of cod
liver oil, therefore, the greatest
strength-creator and health-restorer
known to medicine to-day. We have
never sold anything in our store equal
to vinol to build up the system,
strengthen the nerves, cure indigestion,
chronic coughs, colds, bronchitis and
incipient consumption, or to make
growing children robust and give
strength and vigor to the aged, and to
make the weak strong and the sick
we'll"
1t is for this reason that we offer to
give back the money in every case
where it fails. Hull's Corner Drug

BUMP PARTIES HER LATEST FAD

ssBump' parties are a new form of
entertainment adopted by women IS
clubs this season that bids fair to rival
whist and bridge, that is, if all are: as
successful: as the one given Wednesday
afternoon by the press committee Of the
Rainy Day club in the: home Of Mrs.
Thomas H. Whitney, Ali West End
avenue. -:
Bump parties are entertaining,
by a woman phrenologist, who takes
herself very seriously. If husbands of
members Of the Rainy Day club are i'm
portuned to build houses regardless of
cost, so that the mistress may have an
opportunity to decorate the interior and
prove her artistic temperament, they
need not be surprised, for it will only
be another evidence of the effect of
the bump party.
One "daisy' of uncertain age, was
warned not to marry by the phrenole-
glst.. Don't you marry; don't even
consider it until you are really ready, -
she was told, "for it would be a pity
for you to make mistake to wed too
soon or get the wrong man.
Another prominent member was star
tied by hearing the reader say, after
carefully rubbing the -" bumpsO on her
head: "You have robbed some one,
and if there had been twin I should
feel sorry for it..
This same woman was told to write,
even If she awakened in the middle of
the night, for the phrenologist knew by
the size of the Jumps that the woman
had genius with her pen, and so She
must hold herself constantly in readi-
ness for any inspirations.
"You are cold and reticent,'' said
the, reader to another woman, and it
took your husband years to make an
impression -
"Six,' declared the subject, amid

THE FoRGETFUL SOPHOMORE

Foster Rockwell, Yale's head foot
ball coach, told at the training table
the other day a Thanksgiving Story.
'.There was sophomore" he said,
who was very hard up in the early
fall, and pawned all his good clothes.
A, little before Thanksgiving he
got, a bio check from home, and accord
ingly, like a wise sophomore, redeemed
his wardrobe. =
- 'When he got home for the HOLIDAYS.
his mother said she would unpack his
trunk for him. The first thing his
mother took. out of the trunk was an
overcoat, and on; it was pinned, he saw
to his horror. the .pawnbroker's ticket
that he had forgotten to remove. /
said:
. Hello! They must have forgotten
to take. this off at ;. the Smith dance.
when I left it in the cloakroom.'
"A moment later his mother took
out his evening trousers. They also
had ticket on them.
