A Mothers Letter to Mothers.
Mrs. E. w. Cooper of Bloomfield,
N. j., says: my child, seven years
old, had bad cold and was weak
and quite run down in health. She
bad been in this condition for about
six weeks when / began giving her
Vinol. 1t was wonderful help to the
child, breaking up her cold quickly
and building UP her strength beside.
] have also found Vinol most excel
lent tonic for keeping up the chill

whooping cough"
Vinol is a wonderful combination
of two world-famed tonics-the medi-
cinal body building elements of cod
liver oil and iron for the blood, there
fore it is a perfectly safe medicine
for children, because it is not a
patent medicine, everything in it is
printed on every package, SO mothers

Therefore we ask every mother of
weak, sickly or ailing child in this
vicinity to try Vinol on our guarantee.

During the year, 30 cases OF typhoid fever
were treated, with but one death; in the five
years ll2 cases have been treated with but five
deaths. The mortality rate Of 4.46 is record
nowhere surpassed.
When the Improvements now nearly COM
pleted are finished there will be ample accom-
moiations for 35 patients, 10 nurses and the
working force
The year closed with no outstanding ndebt-

II. J. PATTERSON, President

When the farmer thinks of getting a
or not new sewing machine or bread
mixer is not needed more. His wife
is the one to help him decide the ques
ton. When he thinks of getting a
share in pure bred stallion, perhaps
ne had better think twice. His wife
might be able to make few pure
bred chickens pay even better. When
he is planning his field work, let him
see that the half days work needed
in the garden is done in season. A
good garden will help his wife take
better care of his family than dozen
fields Of corn.
A lot of things can be done about
the house, from time to time, making
it brighter and more comfortable vet
costing little. A bay window might
make the living room lot cosier and
