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 fitful, 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, n. T., of
. 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 VINOL made her
well 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 bottle
Of VINOL with the understanding
that we will return their money if it
does not prove beneficial.

the city's population. He denounced
tho figures it printed as dishonest. and
as not coming from his Office and hav-
ing no approximation to truth so far
as he was aware. Now, however, the
Smoot paper puts il right up to him
that the discrepancy between the fig
ures it printed last Spring and the
official figures now, is accounted for
because he was in doubt as TO whether
the Fort Douglas residents should be
included in tho Salt Lake City census
or not. Hero is an issue Of veracity
very plainly raised by the beneficiary
Of Mr.. McMillin s breach OF official
trust provided the Smoot paper is not
lying about it. We arc inclined TO
give the benefit of the doubt to Mr.
McMillin, because of the notorious pro-
pensity for falsehood of the Smoot pa
per, and inasmuch as Mr. McMillin
expressly and emphatically denied all
knowledge of or participation in the
breach of Official trust implied by the
publication of those figures, and de.
nounccd that paper as falsifer when
1t claimed to have its figures from his
office (for it could have got them no.
where else), he is entitled to the benefit
of his denial, 1t seems to be IL case
where rascalty is not content with its
rascality, but insists upon having the
public recognize the evil fame that
attaches to its criminal acts We do
not see, however, how Mr.. McMillin
can be content TO rest under this very
plain accusation made against him by
the Smoot paper, which necessarily i'm
plies on his part, treachery to the gov.
erDment and violation of his oath Of
Office.
