Constipation is often accompan-

would suggest that intelligence and

money. Let our farmers not
waste their substance in any
direction; bat read reflect. attend

their money go the longest way

bill introduced by Senator Nor

and alterations were made after
conference with those interested in

and favorable report agreed upon.
which was made in the senate to.
day. Inasmuch as no bill Of the
sort has been passed in the house.
or introduced. the Norwood bill if
it passes the senate, will probably
be the one to pass the house.
The law is modelled on the most
successful game laws of other
states. 1t creates the Office Of
State game and fish commissioner,
provides for county wardens and
deputy wardens. regulates hunting
in the State. provides for hunters
licenses and repeals sections 1880
and 1881 of the Code.
The compensation Of the State

of the amount paid into the game
and fish protection fund. but shall
not exceed S2400 per annum He
is required 10 give bond.
He is given authority to arrest
without warrant any person found
violating the game and fish laws:
to execute legal process and to
search any place, garment or re-
ceptacle which he has cause to be

contrary to law He shall appoint
deputies in each county. and each
may appoint other deputies: the
compensation of these to be rs per
cent of all fines. forfeitures and
penalties collected where they have
evidence to convict of
violations
Any other person furnishing evil
dence to convict on shall be paid 80
per cent of the fines. and Is per
cent shall be paid to the deputy in
whose district the action is
brought The remaining 20 per
cent shall be forwared to the State
fund
Hunters licenses are required:

in any county in the State. and $40
for non residents. and good for ten
days only. the license to specify the
first and last days inclusive issued
for. Hunters will be required to
carry licenses and display same
when required; the wardens and
deputies will have the power to ad-
oaths, and false statements
in obtaining a license or hunting
to provisions of la1 will !
bring fine of not less than SIS or
more than $25 All monies collect
ed shall go into the State game and

HOW OLD PEOPLE
May Prolong Their Lives

At an advanced age waste is more
rapid than repair. The organs act
more slowly and less effectually than
in youth. The circulation is poor, the
blood thin and watery, the appetite
poor and digestion weak.
We want to say to every aged per-
son in this vicinity that vinol, our de-
licious cod liver and iron tonic with
out oil) win prolong life. 1t creates
an appetite, aids digestion and makes
good blood. In this natural manner
Vinol retards waste and replaces
weakness with strength, giving new
life to the worn system.
If people in this vicinity only real
lied how vinol invigorates old people
we would not be able to supply the
demand.
Try bottle of Vinol with the un-
derstanding that your money win be
returned If it does not help you.
