Melchor Engle OF Lord Fairfax in 1854,
one-fourth of which is still owned by
heirs OF Sarah Engle RonemouS. Cen
eral William Darke owned the adjoining
farm, but was buried in this first Gods
acre, which history says was started by
the burial at night of two soldiers from
the stockade fort Philip Engle built around
the big spring at the J. B. OSbourn home

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 Is THE PROOF
A case is recorded in Albany. y. Y, of
q woman who felt she was breaking
Down by age and was doomed to the
weak and feeble condition of old people.
She had no strength and the slightest ex-
ertion tired her, but EINOL made her
well and strong, and she states that she
feels ten years younger than she did be-
fore taking YINOL.
We ask every aged person in
this neighborhood to try a bottle
of VINOL with the understanding
that we will return their money if it
does not prove beneficial.

IT'S SURE.ENOUGH SERPENT
Monster Said to Be Fussing Round in
Cannon Lake.

Farbault. Mimi, June ll.-For sew
eral years strange animal has been
seen in Cannon lake, near this city.
The animal has been seen on several
occasions by reliable citizens who are
residents along the lake front, includ-
ing August Borchert and his son. Au-
gust Witte, and f. c. Ellis, of this
city. The elder Borchert heard it splash
in the water last night as it dived into
the water from Il point of land near
the landing where he was standing.
Several years ago the animal went
ashore i'm front of the house of A.
DAVIS, who lives about block from
the shore of the lake; seized DAVIS dog
and dragged it into the lake and killed
it, while Mr.. DAVIS and Mr. Borchert
watched the battle from the shore. Two
years ago, when the lake was frozen
over, the creature often was seen
around air holes, but only showed it
self so far that those who did see it got
mere glimpse of it. Last fall it often
was heard i'll the upper part of the
lake.
Those VINO have seen the creature
say that it is about seven feet long
dark in color, and has either sharp
pointed ears or horns, Presumably the
animal lives on fish and the MOSES and
roots growing about the lake.
