After Five Years
Winthrop Child Was Restored to
Health by Vinoi.

Five years ago our little girl had
a severe attack of diphtheria which
left her subject to bronchitis and
stomach trouble. She has been almost
constantly under medical treatment
| have also tried two or three rene
dies containing cod liver oil but found
her stomach rebelled against the OIL
Reading your description of, Vinol I
decided to try it and did so with most
astonishing results. 1 cannot begin to
tell you how she has improved because
you do not know what a little sufferer
she was for five years. She has gained
ten pounds since she commenced to
take Vinol, and the story of what Vim
oil has done for her is only half told in
this letter" Mrs. Adelaide Mulloy.
Winthrop, Mass
Vinol contains all the healing cura-
tive properties of cod liver oil, without
the oil and tonic iron added. That is
why it helped this little girl after 9TH
er remedies had failed.
We ask mothers of weak, sickly chill
dren to try Vinol on our offer to give
back your money if it fails to help
them. Bowditch. Webster & Co.

Crowded urban and suburban trans
| portation does not interest us. With
more area than the rest of New Eng
land and with only $4,000 people, you
can see how this is with us, but cleo
trifieation of all our railroads is live
issue in Maine. With our cheap and
abundant water power we are soon ex-
pecting to see all of our roads oper-
ated this way
Uniform legistat ton providing for
the unification of corporate entity is
beyond me. We don't care how you
run The Boston q Maine, and we re-
gard it as your job. so long as you
run II, but if there is anything that
makes q Maine man mad it is to be
stalled at Berwick and sit two hours
on side track and when trying to
find out what the trouble Is, to be told
that 1t is a case of "Whitney's poor
coal" Is 1t not possible that the New
England system may improve upon
this? The Maine Central is now said
tC he under their control, and we know
il to be the best managed now of any
time in its history. Not owning q dol
lar of railroad stock or a railroad bond.
/ suppose ii is safe for me to say this.
do not think our people care much
who owns and operates steamships
and trolley lines, as long as they are

think they have a great many owners.
The reduction of all leases of lines
to absolute ownership, these New Eng
land states as whole could have
nothing to do with. Each state may
control it's own railroads. within its
borders and while it would and per-
hans could not abrogate leases made
in good faith by legislative authori-
ty or make retroactive laws. it might
in the future look out better, perhaps
than ii has in the past with reference
to this matter. Maine has done SO. The
later consultations with the Maine
Central have been by purchase, and
complete ownership and not by leases.
II saves expenses and is better bust
ness, Tho Maine Central Railroad is
mass of leases and consultations;
probably more than 80 companies
make it up.
The charter of a railroad or d bank
amounts to mighty little so far as OPP
GRAFTON goes. 1t. depends upon the men
vino run it, What we want in Maine is
results and not theories. We are do
ing pretty well now in Maine with our
railroads, hut not as we'll as We might,
perhaps, or as we hope to. but much
better than we did. The Bangor &
Aroestook strike. now on, is our worst
immediate trouble. and we hope soon.
