How Old PEOPLE
May PrOlOng
Their Lives

AT advanced age the organs act
more slowly than in youth. Circu-
lation becomes poor, blood thin and
watery, appetite ftful, and diges-
ton weak. This condition leaves
the system open to disease such as
Coughs, Colds, Grippe, Pneumo-
MIA, Rheumatism, etc.
VINOL is the greatest health
creator and body builder we know
of for old people, as it supplies
the very elements needed to re-
build wasting tissue and replace
weakness with strength.
HERE rs THE PROOF
A case is recorded in Albany, N. Y, of
woman who felt she was breaking
down by age and was doomed to tho
weak and feeble condition of old people.
She had no strength and the slightest ex-
ertiOn tired her, but NINOL made her
wei and strong, and she states that she
feels ten years younger than she did be-
fore taking VINOL.
We ask every aged person in
this neighborhood to Try a bottle
of VINOL with the understanding
that we vii! return their money # it
does not prove beneficial.

SERIOUS FUNGUS DISEASE
OF EUROPEAN POTATOES
as nd Every Effort Should
Prevent It's Development in
This Country.

During the past thirteen years a
serious fungus disease Of potatoes has
spread throughout European coun-
tries. It was first recorded from Hun
gary In 1896 and appeared in England
In 1901 and Is known as the black
scab." "warty disease" and potato
canker." During the years that have
clasped since the disease first became
known 1t has spread into Ireland.
Scotland, England. Scandinavia. Ger
many. France. Italy and Newfound-
land and is prevalent over the greater
part OF Europe. 1t was not known on
the American continent until 1t APP
pearcd In Newfoundland in 1909.
The extraordinary virulence OF the
disease and the rapidity with which
1t has spread. make II necessary to
warn all potato growers to be on the
lookout for this disease.
Where allowed to establish itself 1t
renders the cultivation of potatoes ex.
tremely difficult. as they cannot be
raised on that ground for a period OF
Mt least six years. Therefore. strin-
gent preventive measures should be
used to keep this disease out OF the
United States. By the terms of the

Wales. persons concealing this dis.
ease are liable to prosecution and a

that the disease may be recognized
