OLD PEOPLES HOME FAILS
Inmates Thrown on Charity.

A home for old people" recently
became bankrupt in Detroit, and many
inmates who had paid into it every
dollar they had in the world, expect =
ing to be assured Of comfortable
ola age, were thrown on charity.
We say that every institution of this
nCaure ought to be under supervision
Of the state so such things could not
happen 1t is the duty of the young
and strong to safeguard the welfare
of the old and feeble.
Their health and vigor, for example
Should be kept up as much as posi-
bic, Nothing is so good for this pur-
pose as Vinol, our delicious cod liver
and iron preparation without oil. Miss
a. II. RaIston of Mt. Vernon, \. Y.
says: LAS a tonic, think Vinol is
excellent and especially for an old
person. A condition of general debil-
ity which had lasted for months yield
ed promptly to Vinol and this gives
me the fullest confidence in it,
vinol is not only pleasant TO take
but always agrees with the stomach
and we guarantee it absolutely.
