" Boston, Mass, Dec. 5.An insane

leased on parole last month frona
the Danvers insane asylum, was over

chief of the state police. Gov. Guild

Cohen was shot twice through the
head and was in critical condition
at the Massachusetts general hospital

state officials said after the shooting
that Steele was a well-known eharae :
ter to the board of insanity and that
he had an illusion that he was not
getting his rights, for which he held
the governor responsible. -

Wilson Surprises Pie Men.

Gov. Wilson's declination to
have anything to do with the dis
tribution of Federal patronage in
the State is source of much COM
ment in political circles. The Ad-
ministratiOn would be glad to turn
over to him the absolute control of
the postmasterships and other
Federal Offices in the State, and
the idea that the Governor has in
formed heads of departments that
he would not make recommends
tions is considered miraculous by
the bread and butter brigade. a"
In the meantime, the Governor is
receiving stacks Of letters in every
mail from candidates for Federal
Office, and is simply referring
them to the proper department

MODERN METHODS.
How They Have Improved a STAN
dard Remedy.

In the 18th century a wave OF
excitement swept over England
and France when the medical pro-
fession discovered such wonderful
curative elements in the Gods liver.
In the 18th century cod liver oil
was imported and used extensively
by physicians in this country, but
it was found to be adulterated to a
: great extent, and the useless heavy
SN,hich enveloped the medicinal
elements, great hindrance to its
medicinal value
In 1855 a famous physician from
the Hague went to Norway and
after two years of experiment and
research produced light brown
i oil from the Gods livers which was
\ said to- be more valuable than the
y pale yellow oil, but the taste and
odor was so repulsive that it fire.
Sauently caused such nausea that
it made it very unpopular.
| The most valuable discovery,
however, was later made by two
Iheminent French chemists, who
kafter years of research discovered
ian eYtractive and concentrating
tprocess, by which all of the me-
dicial, healing and body building
clements of the Gods liver are
separated from the useless and
nauseating oil. These recovered
medicinal elements combined
with peptonate. of iron make Vinol
the most scientific and valuable
cod liver preparation which the
world has ever known.
Vinat is so rich in the elements
of life That it imparts vigor to all
debilitated and feeble conditions
and is unexcelled as remedy for
all pulmonary troubles.
Try Vinol on our guarantee to
re turn your money if it fails to
give satisfaction.

State Superintendent of Public
instruction Blair, of Illinois. pro-
posed last week before the Chicago
English Club in Fullerton Hall of
the Art Institute that II course in
courtship and marriage be added
to the Illinois public school curric-
ulum.
The superintendent would not
have the usual sort of classes of
instruction in love making, but
wants the pupils taught by indi-
rect means. For example, says
Mr.. Blair, a study of Enoch Arden
or Miles Standish would give the
pupils "A right idea of how to pro-
pose. Mr. Blair did not explain
to what length he desired the pu-
pills to 90 into the subject, but was
positive in his assertion that a
general idea of courtship should
be given the pupils.
Il can see no reason why this
subject should be avoided" he
said. This department in public
school education is unique and de-
serves further consideration"
