HOW AN INDIANA GIRL
Got Strong and We'll Again At Small
 Cost

Miss Alta Abel of West Baden, Ind, says: T was a complete wreck, all ways tired, worn out and nervous. l had to spend about one-third of my time in bed and my life was not worth living Vinol, your delicious cod liver and iron tonic was recon mended, and it has done me more good than all the medicine I ever took in my life. That nervous and tired feeling is all gone. I have gained fin health, flesh and strength until feel like another person"
 Vinol is the most efficient strength creator for such women. It is the medicinal clements of the eod's Iivers contained in Vinol, aided by the blood making and strengthening properties of tonic iron which makes it so far superior to all other tonics to build up health and strength for weak, tired, afiing women. It contains oil and has a delicious taste.
 We give back your money if Vinol does not do all that we claim. Broadway Pharmacy. G. G. Engier, Norwich. Conn.

 During last year over $1,1oe was ex- pended for orphans and poor, and Rev. Father Broderick warmly commended the Catholic Woman's club. the mem bers of which raised the greater part of this by their annual charity ball and other entertainments, He empna- sized the duty of the well-to-do to provide for. the needy. and expressed the hope that every family in the parish would aid in making this year s charity ball of the Catholic Won1a n's club the most successful ever held, that larger fund than ever might be provided for the poor.
 Father Broderick referred to the ad- mirable work done by his predecessor, bury.
 He eensured certain parishioners who, from motives of convenience, fre- quently attend mass in other parish churches. pointing out the duty of such to show loyalty to and interest in their own parish church by assisting at its various services.
 It Is his purpose, he explained, to begin work as soon as practicable on the new addition to St. Marys cenae- tery, and he asked for the liberal CO., operation of his people, that he might be enabled to accomplish this work successfully.
 The high mass yesterday, the first Sunday after Epiphany, was ce1ebrat- ed by Rev. Thomas A. Grumbly. At the offertory Mrs. F. L. Farrell sang a beautiful Ave Maria
