Nearly three hundred years have passed since
the medicinal. curative elements known to exist
In the Gods liver were first discovered and rec.
ognized by physicians a specific in the treat
raent of pulmonary ana wasting diseases, and as
a body builder and strength creator; but how te
extract those medicinal elements from the oil
in which they were enveloped has been the stud,
of some of the most expert chemists in the world
Now the process discovered by two eminent
French chemists. Morgues and Gautier should
interest every person in Washington. By an ex
tractivc concentrating process they discovered
"a way TO separate the tonic body building and
curative elements contained In fresh Gods liv
ers from their useless oil. By this process Vino
is made.
Because vinol contains no oil, but embodies al
the medicinal value Of cod liver oil. with tonit
iron added, 1t is fast supersedng old ia shionet

GENERAL NEWS GATHERED
ON THE RIVER FRONT

The longboat Osceola, which unloaded a
cargo of pine lumber here for the dealers
last week, started down the river yester
day bound to river point to load cord
wood back to this city When about
abreast of the naval magazine she dropped
anchor and lay there several hours. Wish
ing to take advantage of the northerly
winds yesterday evening her anchor was
raised. but before she could gather head
way tie half gale blowing carried her
crab fashion, on the fats. and there she
stuck. Her crew endaavored to float her,
but the wind held her. and she was on
the mud for several hours before the men
aboard her succeeded in working her into
deep water. Where the boat went ashore
the mud was very soft, and no harm was
done her by grounding. AS soon as
.toated the vessel started down the river
for. Aqua creek or Wades bay, where
she will load back to this city.
OF the hundred or more pleasure craft
owned in this city not half a dozen
nave gone out of commission for the
winter Usually at this time many of the
smaller craft have been put in winter
quarters. but this year owners are keeping
their boats afloat and are taking advan-
tage of the beautiful weather to have a
run down the river once or twice a week.
Then, too. the outlook for the wild duck
hunting season is unusually good and
many Of the boat owners are using their
craft to go to the tributaries Of the river
on hunting expeditions. While Thanks
giving day Is supposed to wind up the
boating season on the river. it will not do
so this year, for many owners will keep
their boats in commission as long as the
river remains open. and Will only lie I'D
