The Reason Why
We endorse VINOL:

Because Vinol is a real cod
liver preparation containing
all the medicinal elements Of
cod liver oil, with the useless
oil omitted, tonic iron added.
Because Vinol creates
strength for old people, for
the rundown, tired, debili-
tated; for weak, sickly
women and children.
Because Vinol is unequalled
for all pulmonary troubles.

Bedroom Furniture.

White enamel, if the models are sim.
pie and well made. is very satisfactory
for light and dainty color schemes,
and the prices are very reasonable.
Bird's-eye maple comes next in price
and is very attractive with certain
colors, such as old rose. suede green
and light blue. Ono can frequently
llnd the same models in ii as in the
mahogany
1t is necessary to consider the wood
and the coloring very carefully in se-
lecting furniture, but it is even more
important to select simple graceful
models, and to see that they are well
made-Harper's Bazaar.
