MlDDLEBURY PEOPLE
With Chronic Coughs Need vinoi
IL Stops the Cough and Cures
the Cause.

This is the season for coughs and colds,
and for the benefit of Middlebury people
our local druggist, M. R. Burt, tells them
the best means for a cure.
He says: Take Vinol, our real cod
liver preparation without oil. 1t does
not upset the stomach like cough syr-
ups, and it is much more effective.
mol is not a palliative but a curative"
This is because VinOl contains in a
highly concentrated form all of the heal
ing, strength creating and medicinal
elements of cod liver oil actually taken
from fresh Gods livers, with all the use
less, nauseating oil eliminated and tonic
iron added. 1t tastes fine, and cannot
upset the weakest stomach, hence its
wonderful power to cure.
We ask every person in Middlebury
who has chronic cough or hard cold to
try Vinol on our guarantee. NJ. r. Burt,
Druggist, Middlebury, Vt.

MAKE 1T YOURSELF.
Says Many Persons Here Can Be
Made Happy Again.


There is so much Rheumatism here in
our neighborhood now that the following
advice by an eminent authority, who
writes for readers of large Eastern daily
paper, will be highly appreciated by those
who suffer:
Get from any good pharmacy one-half
ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion. one
ounce Compound Kargon, three ounces
of Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla. Shake
these well in bottle and take in tea
spoonful Goses after each meal and at
bedtime; also drink plenty of good
water.
1t is claimed that there are few victims
of this dread and torturous disease who
will fail to find ready relief in this simple
homemade mixture, and in most cases a
permanent cure is the result.
This simple recipe is said to strengthen
and cleanse the eliminative tissues of the
Kidneys so that they can filter and strain
from the blood and system the poisons,
acids and waste matter, which cause not
only Rheumatism, but numerous other
diseases. Every man or woman here
who feels that their kidneys are not
healthy and active, or who suffers from
any urinary trouble whatever, should not
hesitate to make up this mixture, as it is
certain to do much good, and may save
you from much misery and suffering
after while.
Our home druggists say they will
either supply the ingredients or mix
the prescription ready to take if our
readers ask them.

ANCIENT BOWS.
That of the Seythians Was In tho Form
of the Letter c.

While universally used by the an
clients, the form of the bow varied with
different nations. The Scythian bow
was in the form Of the letter c, and
the bow of the Tartars, descendants Of
the Scythians, still keeps that shape.
The Greek bow was not more than
three or four feet in length, but SO
stout and stiff that II required consid-
cradle strength and skill to use it. II
is said that the first Greek bows were
made from the horns Of a species Of
goat the bases being united by means
of metallic band. Afterward other
material was used in their manufac-
ture, but they still retained their orig
inal shape. These bows were too
short to be of much use, and, compare
lively speaking but small portion of
the troops were armed with them.
The Romans carried the bow to Brit
ain, where it at once obtained favor
and during the middle ages was ex-
tensively used, forming an important
| element of the armies Of that period.
The English archers were said to be
| the finest in the world and their skill
decided the battles of Creecy, Poitiers
| and Agincourt. The bows used were
of two kinds-the long bow and the
arbalest, or crossbow The arbalest
was made of steel or horn and was of
such strength and stiffness that it was
necessary TO use some mechanical ap-
pliance to bend it and adjust the
string. The arbalestiers carried q
| culver with fifty arrows and were
placed in the van of the battle.

FISHING FOR OIL.

Curious Spectacle on the Coast of
California.
In the neighborhood of Summerland
ON the coast of California, ten miles
south of Santa Barbara. the visitor
may behold at the present time a
strange and interesting spectacle the
like of which was never seen in the
world before. 1t is nothing more or
less than fishery for petroleum.
Out from the smooth, sandy beach
and extending at right angles there
with into the ocean are many long
docks or piers supporting old derricks.
The latter are like any other derricks
constructed for such purpose, but in
stead Of being used to bring up oil
from the dry land they are made to
serve for fetching the fluid from be-
meath the waters of the sea.
The piers described are. many of
them, of great length. stretching quar-
ter of mile or more out into the Pa
cific, in order to tap the -oil bearing
strata under the sea Derricks are set
All dlOuS luc DetiCu ilScll, upnelu ny
piles, in order that the breakers may
flow back and forth beneath them.
One might imagine that the discovery
of the oil under the sea came about
through observation of petroleum float
ing on the waves. Such does not seem,
however to have been the case. Pros
pectors for the precious fluid, having
come upon a productive oil field on
terra frma in the neighborhood of
Summerland, were naturally led down
to the ocean beach by the circum-
stance that the oil producing area ap-
peared TO extend in that direction.
Finding that there was oil beneath the
very breakers, it occurred to them to
seek 1t farther out.
The petroleum obtained from under
the sea is remarkable, like all the oil
in the neighborhood, for containing a
great deal of asphalt. 1t is, in fact,
very impure and thick owing to this
admixture Of an extraneous substance.
But the asphalt itself is decidedly val
liable when separated and is being
utilized for paving and other such pur-
poses.-Saturday Evening Post.
