HOW CHRONIC COUGHS
Are Being Cured by V;nol.

Did you ever cough for a montts!
Then lust think how distressing it
must be to have a cough hang on for
three months.
Mrs. Maria Primrose, of 81 Newell
Street, Brooklyn, N. Y, says: i had
a very heavy cold which settled into
q chronic cough, which kept ne
awake nights for fully three month";
and felt tired all the time because ny
rest was broken so much. The effect
of taking your cod liver and iron ren--
edy, Vinol, is that, my cough is gonc-
I can now get a good nights rest, and
I feel much stronger in every way"
II is the combined action OF the
medicinal elements, Gods livers, aided
by the blood-making and strength
creating properties of tonic iron which
makes Vinol so efficient in curing
chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis,
at the same time building up ths'
weakened, rundown system.

derstanding that your money VIII

Transplanting Beets

Beets can be trAnsplanted in the
way as cabbage and other similar
plants. 1t so often happens that
big bunch of seed will come up at a
certain place with a big skip at an
other. In this case 1t is highly de-
sirable to transplant them, in order
that good stand be had and all the
space be utilized. They do not trans
plant quite so easily as cabbage, but it
will pay.-[Southern Farming, At

r servian Troops Abandon Allies.

Cettinje, April 1.-THE seryian
troops which have been assisting the
Montenegrin army in the siege OF
Scutari have withdrawn and are
marching back to servia. This leaves
Montenegro standing practically alone
in it's defiance Of it's powers.
The official gazette declares today
that the heavy Montenegrin losses
sustained during the recent assault on
the Tarabosch forts were due mainly
to the Seryian artillery which con-
tinued to fire while the allied troops
were storming the works.
"Tne Servian commander forgot to
give the order to cease fring,' says
the gazette.
