LIVING AT HIGH TENSION

To overdo in order to keep up with
the parade is the tendency of the age.
Living at such a high tension, is It
any wonder that our nerve sanitariums
and rest cures are filled with nervous.
Overworked, broken-down men and
women?
When one begins 10 get into this
condition, there Is only one cure--a
complete rest together with a whole
some diet and a good blood-making
tonic and strength creator. There is
nothing in this line that can possibly
excel the medicinal elements of the
Gods liver combined with tonic iron.
This simple combination is found In
Vinol. It contains no oil or grease aud
agrees with everyone.
A well-known college professor
states that he considers Vinol a truly
wonderful tonic and strength creator.
He was himself overworked and run
down to a critical point A friend ask
ed him to try VinOl. He did so, and is
now enjoying perfect health. and its
curative powers cannot be too strong.
~ eNtolled.
We recommend Vinol TO build al
and strengthen the rundown and
overworked. weak women, old people
delicate children and convalescents
In case anyone is not satisfied after
taking one bottle. we always refund
their money. This does not happen
often. however. because Ninols per.
ccntagc OF cures is very high. \. 3

His House TO BE Broken Up
All OF the foregoing suggestions
are confirmed by the symbolism OF
the 43d verse. Here the Master lik-
ems the institutions OF the present
time to a house or household. Else
where he informs us that Satan Is the
Prince OF this world, The over-lord
who tyrannizes the world, operating
through the weaknesses and passions
and depraved appetites and impair
ed reasoning faculties of humanity.
Had the time of the Lords Second
Advent been clearly made known that
knowledge would have 50 altered
matters and affairs that the world
would not have been taken by sur
prise in connection with the gather
ing of the Lords jewels and the es-
Establishment Of his Kingdom aud
thus there would not be such break
ing-up In earth's AFFAIRS as is now
! impending; the Kingdom would be
established, t,.' not In the way IN
which God designed.
