HAVE YOU WEAK LUNGS?
DO You Fear Consumption? Is an I'm
pOrtant and Timely Question.

DO You Fear Consumption? Is an I'M
pOrtant and Timely Question.
When we take into consideration
the fact that one out of every seven
in this climate die of consumption is
it any wonder that it is feared by the
people of Dawson who have weak
lungs and chronic colds and coughs ?
A famous London physician has for
years urged his patients, when the
slightest tendency to consumption ap-
peared, to take the best cod liver
preparation they could find, and ply
sicians everywhere have recognized
that the Gods liver contains curative
values for coughs, colds, bronchitis,
consumption and all wasting diseases
unequaled in medicine, but, unfOrtu-
nately, few could take and derive any
benefit from old-fashioned cod liver
oil and emulsions on account of the
indigestible grease which they con-
tain.
Mr.. Bell OF Bell Brothers, our local
druggists, says: eve want every per-
son in Dawson to know the value of
our new cod liver preparation, Vinol,
1t actually contains in a concentrated
form all of the Strengthening body
building elements of cod liver oil act
ually taken from fresh Gods livers,
without a drop Of oil or grease to up
set the stomach and retard its work.
Therefore, where old-fashioned cod
liver oil or emulsions would do good
Vinol will do far more good. We
guarantee V1nol will improve the APP

ic coughs and colds and strengthen
weak lungs. If VinOl fails to give sat

The Dispensary Again,

MIR. EDITOR: The report Of the
treasurer of our dispensary commits
sioners for the year 1905 shows sales
of Sl17 600; profits from same S36, 700.
1t seems to me that instead of profit
of S36, 700 we have sustained an actual
loss of $50, BOO For if this business for
1905 cost US $4,000 and put into the
treasures of the county and towns
only $36, 7G0 this amount, subtracted
from Sl17, 900, shows that besides sus-
tanning untold damage otherwise we
have lost in actual cash $50, 300. Thus,
instead of being enriched BY this bus
mess we are made poorer in every
sense of that word. NJ. B. L. BINION.
