HAVE YOU WEAK LUNGS?
DO YOU FEAR CONSUMPTION

When we take into consideration the
fact that one out of every seven in this
climate die of consumption, is 1t any
wonder that il is feared by the people of
New Iberia who have weak lungs and
chronic colds and coughsf a
A famous London physician has for
years urged his patients, when the slight
est tendency to consumption appeared,
to take the best cod liver preparation they
could find, and physicians everywhere
have recognized that the cod s liver con-
tains curative values for coughs, colds,
bronchitis, consumption and all wasting
diseases unequaled in medicine, but, un-
fortunat ely, few could take and derive any
benefit from old-fashioued cod liver oil
and emulsions on account of the indigest-
ible grease which they contain.
Our local druggist, John X. Taylor says
he want every person in New Iberia to
know the value of our new cod liver prep
aration, Vinol. 1t actually contains in q
con centrated form ali of the strengthen.
ing body building elements Of cod liver
oil actually taken from fresh Gods livers
without drop of oil or grease to upset the
stomach and retard its work.
Therefore, where old-fasbioned cod
liver oil or emulsions would do good, vi
mol will do far more good. We guarantee
yinol will improve the appetite, strength
en- digestion, make rich, red blood, create
strength, cure chronic coughs and colds
and strengthen weak lungs. IL Vinol fails
to give satisfaction, we return your money
without question:" John II. Taylor, drug

ENTERTAINMENT BY THE "MOTH-

One of the coming institutions of
the City, in fact it is already estab-
lished, is the "Mothers Club of New
Iberia" " an organization Of the ladies
of this community, banded together
for the advancement of our social and
educational interests. They have n
membership of considerable magnitude
req. asenting the best families of the
CITY. One of the objects for which
they are striving is the betterment of
our public schools They are aware
of the woful lack of funds, and the
sparse accommodations for pupils, so
they have gone to work and declare
they will never relax any effort until
every child of school age shall have a
seat in school house and with all the
convenences and comforts that are no.
cessary. This is a most laudable pur-
pose and deserving of our highest
communication and encouragement.
We trust every lady of this City will
ally herself with this Club Of all Clubs
and thus make 1t a power for good to
the whole community.
In this connection we would say the

New York. Aug. 3.-Stocks started
eff higher again this morning with
the usual procedure in ST. Paul and

was strong in spots in sympathy
with these two leaders.
Last week there was considerable
selling of Illinois Central by people
who We're under the impression that
the Hartman interests would gain
control of this stock but when they
found that the Fish interests still
retained control and that the Harri-
man party were badly beaten in the
controversy, they made an effort To
buy back their short contracts today
and they had to pay dearly for their

equivalent to 1917 a rise of i've
points compared with the last sale
yesterday
In the last hour of the session
there was a determined effort by the
bull operators to realize profits on
some of the stocks they have been
buying during the week, this brought
about a reaction of about two points
in some of the most active stocks,
particularly ST Paul, Union Pacific,
Southern Pacific, Copper, Sugar and
Reading.
One of the most pronounced weak
spots of the day was apparent in the
