FEEBLE OLD PEOPLE
Are Told How to Regain
 Strength and Vieor.


 As one grows old the waste of the system becomes more rapid than re- pair, the organs act more slowly and less effectively than in youth, the cir. culation is poor, the blood thin aud digestion weak.
 Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron tonic without oil is the ideal strengthener and body-builder for old folks, for it contains the very clements needed to rebuild wasting tissues and replace weakness with strength. vinol also fortifies the system against colda and thus prevents pneumonia.
 Mrs. Mary Ivey, of Columbus, Ga, says: "If people only knew the good V1nol does old people, I am sure you would be unable to supply the de. mand. I never took anything before that did me so much good as Vinol. It Is the finest tonic and strength creator I ever used in my life"
 If Vinol fails to build up the feeble, old people, and create strength we will return your money.

Scab on apples Is too familiar to
need much description. It first ap-
pears as small, circular, olive-colored
spots on the skin Of the apple. These
later enlarge, many of them becoming
one-fourth Of an inch or more in dia-
meter, rounded, roughish and dark
olive-colored, usually surrounded by
a light gray border. Several spots
may coalesce and form irregular
patches, sometimes covering a large
portion Of the apple. In severe at
tacks. especially those resulting from
early infections when the fruit is
small, the apples often become cracked
and badly distorted in shape, due to
the unequal growth of the healthy and
diseased portions.
While scab on the fruit is largely a
superficial growth, the injury it does
directly and indirectly is by no means
confined to simple damaging of the
appearance Of the fruit. Epidemics of
pink rot and some of the blue molds
decay come from secondary infections
Of the fungi through scab spots.
Scabby apples in addition to being
more likely to decay, wither more
rapidly in storage than the perfect ap-
pies.
Apple scab fungus may attack the
flowers, twigs, leafstalks, leaves and
fruit, but it is upon the last two that
its appearance Is most prominent.

jury.
It Is a matter of common expert
ence that the lower leaves on the tree
are the first to show attacks of scab.
Hence raking and burning the leaves
would do much to lessen the danger
of infection. The Formations Of winter
spores takes place more readily when
the leaves fall on sod or are partly
covered by grass or other leaves. Or.
chard cultivation produces conditions
unfavorable to the propagation of scab
spores and early blowing buries many
of them where they will decay and do
no damage.
From information by men who have
made study of this disease, it would
seem that the appearance, growth
and spread of apple scab in storage is
by no means uncommon. Scab in
storage may develop on fruit which,
when placed in the cellar, appeared
entirely free from the disease. Fruit
from trees that are we'll sprayed will
be less likely to develop the disease in
storage. Scabby apples should be care
fully sorted from the sound before
storing. The temperature of storage
should be as low as consistent with
safety and not subject to abrupt
changes.

CHRISTMAS REVELRY

A figure everywhere dominant In the celebra-
ton of Christmas in the middle ages was that OF
the Lord of Msrule. also called the Master of
Merry Disports. In Scotland this same master
of the revels known the Abbot of Unrea-
son, while in France his title was very much the
same-"Abbas Stultorum"-or Abbot Of Fools.
The king, the great lords of his realm and other
important personages must needs appoint such
a leader and organizer of their Christmas festivi-
ties. In Scotland, previous to the Reformation,
the monasteres used to elect such functionary,
but in 1855 law was passed for the suppression
OF the Abbot of Unreason, along with all the
other burlesque and fantastic features of the
Christmas celebration.
The barons and knights kept open house at
Christmas time for fortnight. Revelry reigned
throughout this period, and on Christmas day the
grand feast, given by the feudal chieftain to his
friends and retainers took place with great pomp
and magni1cence The boar's head first and
foremost the board and its entrance to the
banqueting room was heralded by a great blare
OF joyful trumpets. Borne on q gold or silver
platter by the server at the head of a procession
OF mobiles, knights and ladies, the foremost dish
OF the feast made the round of the hall to merry
minstrelsy. When 1t was finally given its place
rosemary and bay were spread around IT, a pppin
was placed on its tusk and mammoth pot of
mustard close at hand.
The boars head put down by act of pariia.
ment In the time Of the common wealth. and after
that although It officially freed OF the ban Il
never quite recovered its former place as a part
OF the Christmas feast
The peacock dish was next In Importance tn

at the board with all its feathers on and fits beak
gflded its skin having been removed before cook
Ing and carefully readjusted after II was ready
for the table.
