Doctors Feared Lung Trouble,
 Restored to Health by Vinol

The medical profession does not be- iieve that lung troubles are inherited, but person may inherit a weakness or tendency to them.
 Mrs. Kate Hickman, Springfield. Ohio, says: "A few years ago I was in very bad rundown condition, and the physician told me had consump- tion. l tried another physician, and he told me I had ulcers on my right lung. l quit the physicians and started on 'Vinol' Today am perfectly healthy, and that is why recommend 'Vino'."
 Vinol soothes and heals the inflam. ed surfaces and allays the cough, Vinol creates an appetite, strengthens the digestive organs and gives the patient strength to throw off in. cipient pulmonary diseases.
 Try bottle of Vinol with the un- derstanding that your money will be returned if 1t does not help you.

Mrs. Thomas the wife of Con-
gresham r. Y. Thomas, has filed
suit for divorce, alleging in her pc
tition cruel and inhuman conduct
on the part of the husband.
Thomas has made himself
somewhat notorious for his ruff
fianism while at Washington, and
he assails his wife, alleging that
she had become a violent partisan
and a Republican, and also al
leging that she was always a
Texas Democrat, until three years
ago and is now an enthusiastic
supporter of Roosevelt and vio-
lently opposed to Champ Clark.
Mr.. Thomas alleges that he will
run again for Congress in order
to vindicate himself.
1t would appear to us that the
best vindication than he can have
will be to behave himself.
