Those who preached to the pen

Wait Until They Finish.

Missourians would do well to
withhold criticism of the general
assembly because Of its alleged in
difference to good legislation, until
the close of the session. The truth
is, the legislature and the admins
ton are very much alive to the sit
uation and out of the the mass of
bills introduced some good meas
ures will be formulated and useful
laws enacted. 1t hardly becomes a
party whose executive did nothing
but talk good roads and veto bills

HOW 1U KESIST
Chronic Coughs and Colds.

Strong. vigorous men and women
hardly ever catch cold; It's only when
the system Is run down and vitality
low that colds aud coughs get foot
hold
Nov isn't Il reasonable that the
right way TO cure cough is TO build
up your strength again?
Mrs. Olivia Parham. OF East Dur
ham, n. C, says: II took Vinol for a
chronic cough which had lasted two
years. and the cough not only disap-
peared. but 1t built up my strength
as well"
The reason Vinol Is so eficacious IN
such cases is because 1t contains in a
delicious concentrated form all the
medicinal curative elements OF cod
liver oil. with tonic. blood-building
iron added.
Chronic coughs and colds yield to
vinoi because IL builds up the weak
ened. rundown system.
You can get your money back any
