We, pastors of congregations in Shep-
herdstown, long to help every man, and
be helped by every man; and we are
taking this means OF saying to you that 1t
is subject of deep concern to us that so
small a proportion of our men are seen
regularly in our churches.
The church OF Christ needs every man
in the work committed to it by its Head,
since He formed if for every man. Ev-
cry man needs the church, since it
has in its keeping the help which every
man needs for his highest life. The
church needs for its highest efficiency as
Gods representative in the world the
moral and sympathetic support OF every
man and woman; and, men, the young
need the power OF your example.
We lovingly appeal to you to help us
do Gods work among you; for the great
present day need of the church is men,
who will work and witness for Christ.
Will you not share with us the work now,
and the reward hereafter?

HOW CHRONIC COUGHS
Are Being Cured by Vinol

Did you ever cough for a mon -!
Then lust think how distressing 1t
must be to have a cough hang on for
three months.
Mrs. Maria Primrose, Of 81 Newell
Street, Brooklyn, n. Y, says: i had
q very heavy cold which settled into
a chronic cough, which kept me
awake nights for fully three months,
and felt tired all the time because my
rest was broken so much. The effect
of taking your cod liver and iron rem
edy, Vinol, is that my cough is gone.
! can now get good nights rest, and
I feel much stronger in every way"
1t is the combined action OF the
medicinal elements, Gods livers, aided
by the blood-making and strength
creating properties of tonic iron which
makes Vinol so efficient in curing
chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis
at the same time building up the
weakened, rundown system.
Try bottle of Vinol, with the I'M
derstanding that your money will
be returned II it does not help you.
