BRONCHITIS SUFFERER
Takes Druggists Advice With
Splendid Result.

If anyone should know the worth
of a medicine, it is the retail druggist
who sells it over his counter every
day in the week, and is in a position
to know what remedy gives the best
satisfaction.
Mrs. Frank H. Uline, of West Sand
Lake, N. Y, says: For a number Of
years l was a great sufferer from
bronchitis. Last July I had an attack
which was more severe than any, and
my friends thought 1 could not O
from it. Then 1 was advised by my
druggist to try Vinol, which l did,
with wonderful results. My cough
has left-me; I have gained in weight
and appetite, and 1 am as strong as
ever l was. I advise all who have
bronchitis, chronic coughs, or who are
run down to try Vinol."
1t is the combined action of the
medicinal curative elements of the
Gods liver. without the greasy oil.
aided by the blood-making and
strengthening properties of tonic
iron that makes Vinol SO efficient.
Remember, we guarantee Vinol

the discovery of a remarkable counter
fit SIS silver certificate, which is con-
sidered the most dangerous imitation

Gus Monroe Head" 500 bill which
was suppressed in 1898. So nearly
perfect is this spurious note that OIL
ficials of the cash room OF the treas

unswervingly' held to their belief that
it was a washed note. Slight varla-
lions were found in it from the orig
inal but it will deceive even careful
handlers of money. The imperfec-
lions of the note are detachable only
to the eye of an expert with the aid
of glass. Apparently it is printed on
two sheets of paper between which
silk threads have been distributed.

Secretary Wilson's Report.

The last report of Secretary Will
son, as head of the Department of Ag
riculture, which covers the achieve
ments of sixteen years, the time
"Tama jim" has served as chief of
this great branch of the government
service, is crowded with interesting
facts and shows what mervelous
growth the country has had since Mr..
Wilson came to the chiefship of the
department. The dairy COW is one
of the principal producers of wealth
on the farm and the value of her
products in 1912 is estimated at about
$3.50, 900 900, an amount which eX-
ceeds the value of the cotton line and
is nearly equal to the combined value
of lint and seed.
The lowly hen is another of the
wonderful producers, it being estimat-
ed that she laid during the year 1912,
1,70O,OOO,000 dozen eggs and if an egg
is only worth a cent and three quar-
ters it gives the tidy sum OF $35O,OOO,-
900 and if this is added to the value of
the fowls raised, the products of the
poultry industry on farms amounts to
about $50, 100000. This nearly equals
the value of the wheat crop.
The animals sold from the farm and
the animals slaughtered on it tOgeth-
er number about 100000, and the
farm value of these animals is estimat-
ed at $1,93O,000,O00.
Most productive Of all agricultural
years in this country has been 1912,
declares the report. The earth has
produced it's greatest annual dividend.
The sun and the rain and the fertil-
ity of the soil paid no heed to human
controversies, but kept on working in
cooperation with the farmers efforts
to utilize them. The reward is high
general level of production. The man
behind the plow has filled the nations
larder, crammed the storehouse and
will send liberal supplies to foreign
countries.

TO REVISE THE TARIFF.

The democratic party is preparing
to have a revision OF The tariff at a
special session of congress, to be
called at an early date after the in
auguration of President Wilson.
A special session for this purpose
will be called agreeably to the wishes
of the leaders of the party as well as
she new president AS long as the
question of dealing with the tariff is
regarded of sufficient Importance to
justify an extraordinary session of
congress, rather than to- wait for the
regular, which under the constitution
cunvenes on the first Monday in De-
cember next, the party must assume
that something of an emergency eX-
lists for early and prompt action on
the tariff question.
Judging from the criticisms lodged
against the present tariff as an indi-
cation of the purpose Of the democrat
G party, and it's we'll known record
in the past on the question, it is safe
to assume that it is The intention of
the party in revising the tariff to re-
duce the schedules and not only this.
but to reduce them to the point of
tariff for revenue only or free trade; at
least to abandon the protective feat
ures of the law now in force. There

A Health Program for Iowa.

Des Moines, Dec. 31-The indica-
tons are that the 35th General AS
sembly of Iowa, which convenes
about the middle of January, will de-
vote much time to matters pertaining
to social questions, especially those
relating to public health.
The general education of the pub
lie on the prevention Of tuberculosis
has served to arouse the entire state
to the importance of preventive med
icine. Everywhere thoughtful men
and women are devoting much atten-
ton to a study of those conditions
which produce disease, vice and
crime.
1t is a well established fact now
that tuberculosis is preventable and
that it is inexcusable for state to
tolerate an appalling death toll from
this disease. 1t has also been ascer-
tanned that the same conditions which
produce tuberculosis are conducive
to typhoid fever. pneumonia and the
whole foul brood of social disorders.
Bad housing, over worked and under
waged men and women, over crowd
ing in unsanitary tenements, children
underfed and lily clothed, unprotected
city water supplies and insanitation
in general are held responsible for
many of the social ills from which
we now suffer.
TO devise laws by which to remedy
these conditions will occupy much of
the time of some of the most pro-
gressive leaders in both branches OF
the legislature Some of the meas
ures which no doubt will be proposed
will bear directly upon the tubercu-
losis problem The need for tubercu-
losis hospitals in som
ties with the heaviest population is
imperative and no doubt measures
will be proposed to bring relief There
will be a general tendency toward
health legislation with increased ap-
preparations for health administra-
ton work in the state. The people
of Iowa have learned that the men,
women and children are of the ut
most financial Importance in the
building up of the commonwealth.
ITO protect health and life" will be
the slogan of the 35th General AS
