into their homes more out of spirit
Of hospitality than for the money that
would result.
The reservation committee an.

places for 10000 more people.

CAREFUL MANS OPINION

Business men are careful about what
they say--it is part of their training,
Therefore, when Mr.. j. G. Clarke, a
business man of Westchester, n. T.,
answered a question about his greatly
improved health his opinion may be con-
sidered correct.
He said: Having been troubled with
a bad cough and bronchitis for nearly
d year, | decided to take Vinol a short
time ago The cough has now disap-
peared and my health is very much i'm
proved.
II certainly consider Vinol a valuable
remedy and should be kept in every
home until people try it they don't
know its value"
Thousands of other intelligent people
praise Vinol simply because they have
found it just what they needed TO drive
away lingering coughs and build up their
health and strength.
Vinol is a delicious cod liver and iron
without OIL and is the great
est strength remover for all who are
weak and run down. We guarantee it
to give perfect satisfaction. Red Cross

occurrence We're serious, reports would
have been made very promptly. There
has been no such disturbance heretofore
anywhere along the line of the canal
Colonel Goethals, when in Washington
fortnight ago, had no knowledge of The
possibility of such a mshap, and it ap.
pears that while the engineers have con
sidered that some volcanic action might
occur, they have not felt any apprehen-
sions.
Attaches Of the commission say the
geology of the canal has been studied
very carefully, because Of the fear years
ago that there might be an earthquake

at close intervals along the entire route

have remained there since the work Of
construction began. II, is stated by the
