MAY BECOME A LOST ART.

Do women do as much preserving
and pickle making as in former
years? is a matter of interest, and it
is probable that they do not. In the
years, when it was not possible to
get tropical fruit in the winter it
was necessary to preserve and pickle
home products. Now it is really
not necessary and most physicians
agree that fresh fruit is much better
than that preserved with so much
sugar. Those who have tendency
10 get fat should avoid preserves.

PORTLAND, MAINE, CHILD
Ill, Weak and Emaciated, Re-
stored to Health by Vinol

Our little daughter, six years of age,
after a severe attack of the measles.
which developed into pneumonia, was
left pitifully thin, weak and emaciat-
ed. She had no appetite, and her stom-
ach was so weak it could not retain
food She lay in this condition for
weeks, and nothing the doctor pre-
scribed did bit of good, and we were
beginning to think she would never re-
cover.
"At this time we commenced to give
her vinol, and the effect was marvel
Gus. The doctor was amazed at her
progress, and when we told him we
were giving her Vinol, he replied, 1T
Is a fine remedy, keep 1t up We did
so, and she recovered her health and
strength months before the doctor
thought she could" ]. w. Flagg,

Vinol cures conditions like this be-
cause in a natural manner it increases
the appetite, tones up the digestive
organs, makes rich, red blood, and
strengthens every organ in the body.

CHAMPAGNE FROM sPoNGEs.

"The champagne makers of Reims
buy lot of our sponges," said a
wholesale dealer. '"They squeeze
champagne out of them. They must
squeeze, in the years course, 1,oO0,-
900 bottles of champagne out of
sponges. Mystifed, aren't you?
"But there is no mystery about
the matter. Champagne, is it fer
ments, is powerful stuff; it breaks
the strongest bottles, and in the past
all the champagne that broke its
bottles and escaped was lost
"Now, though, they pack the
champagne bottles in clean sponge.
and every day or two they go over
the plant and, if any of the bottles
have broken, they squeeze into casks
the wine that the sponges have re-
tanned.
"This wine, reclarifed, refined
and bottled agaiE, makes a very
good second quality drink"

POISONED ALE BY EXPRESS
Unknown Parties Cause Death o.
Philadelphia Physician.

Philadelphia, July 1.-The police
of this city hope to be able to make
an important move shortly in the case
of DR.. William H. Wilson, who died
suddenly after drinking a bottle of ale
and who is believed to have been poi
soned. 1t was at first thought that
the doctor had died from natural
causes, but there we're so many sus'
picious circumstances surrounding his
death that the coroner Investigated.
This resulted in an expressed opinion
that DIR. Wilson was poisoned and
that he did not administer the poison
himself. f.-
Anticipating a murder verdict by
the coroner the police soo after the
death of Dr.. Wilson began an investi.
cation into his life and habits. At the
North Seventh street house where DR..
Wilson had lived for about ten years
there was no sign indicating that a
physician lived there. He did not do
a general practice in the neighbor-
hood. He had patients, however, and
they are said to have been principally
women who yer able to pay we'll for
his services. The line of practice the
doctor had was highly r~emunerative,
for he was noted as a good spender'
and he had a summer home at Corn
wells, near Philadelphia, a steam
launch and an automobile. 81
The motive for the supposed muir,
der is believed to be hidden in DR..
Wilson's medical practice. The the.
DRY of the police is that a male friend
or relative of a woman who is be-
lieved to have died after receiving
medical attention at the hands of DR..
Wilson sent the poisoned ale.
