Harbinger of spring;

Although you seldom sing.
There's something merry in your
ways,
You seem to bring good cheer
Behind you trip the April days;
So you're thrice welcomed here.
You stole the blue of the bluest sky,
And hue from the southern sea-;
But back and forth | see you fly
In joyous minstrelsy.
You seek no sorrow anywhere;
There's nothing troubling you
You lose your heart to the glad free
air,
For your spirit isn't blue.

COUGH TWO YEARS OLD

Strong vigorous men and women
hardly ever catch cold; it's only when
the system is run down and vitality
low that colds and coughs get foot
hold.
Now isn't it reasonable that the
right way to cure a cough is to build
up your run down condition again?
Mrs. D. A. McGee Of Waycross, Ga.
says: II had chronic cold and cough
which kept me awake nights for two
years and felt tired all the time.
Vinol cured my cough and I feel
stronger in every way"
The reason Vinol Is SO eficacious
in such cases is because it contains
In a delicious concentrated form all
the medicinal curative elements Of
cod liver oil. with tonic, blood build
ing iron added.
Chronic coughs and colds yield to
Vinol because it builds up the weak
ened, rundown system.

Points For the Purist Who Found
Flaws In Gray's "Elegy."
To look for and find in masterpieces
little flaws, real or lima gined, is an oc-
cupati that must have its mysterious
joys, otherwise, as it brings no profit,
the task would not command all the
time and labor that are devoted to it.
nor would every such discovery be so
exultingly proclaimed. This condition
is based, or, rather, its repetition, by
the letter in which correspondent
confessed that, having heard verbal
perfection ascribed to Gray's "Elegy,"
he was moved carefully to examine the
verses on the chance of proving this
praise undeserved. And he did. he
thinks, having found no less than two
errors in the lines:
Their name, their years. spelt by the un-
lettered muse
The place of fame and elegy supply.
And many holy text around she strews
To teach the rustic moralst to die.
Name should be "names,' this au-
thority declares, for the reason that
the stones bore not one but several
names, and many holy text being
singular, demands "teaches" instead of
"teach!''
Now. just why Gray put the word
name in the singular and not in the
plural might be made the subject of in
genious inquiry, with any one Of half
dozen sufficient explanations as recon-
pense and all inconclusive. but to see
force in the diversity Of village patro
