Fred Kelley, who recently gradual
ed from the law department Of the
Kentucky State University at Lexing-
ton, KY, returned home Saturday
evening, having completed his four
year course in that institution. He
will diversity his work by assisting
on the farm until after the harvest
and will then take a place in the
law office of Cole & 0smond. Fred
has made an exceptionally good rec
ord in his school work, and will I'M
doubtedly develop into a most able
attorney. He was accompanied home
by three of his school mates, Fay o.
Townes, Charles Bouhng, of Madison
Vile, KY, and woodrow Wilson, Of
CINCINNATI o. These three boys
have been taking the agricultural
course in the university, and they

people with his treatment plan. He
accepts no case which he cannot Cure
and if a case is incurable, he frank
ly informs the patient. He accepts
no cases by mail and none IN which
he cannot make a careful diagnosis
and prescribe a course Of direct treat
ment.
The best results nowadays in all
the craft, arts, professions and Sci
ences are secured by Specialist
men who become masters Of informa.
ton on one given endeavor, who
concentrate their study and research
upon one subject. This is particu-
larly true of medical matters; among
practitioners those who give individ-
ual diagnosis and apply specific treat
ment get best results. DR.. Mackey
doesn't pretend to know all about
medicine and disease. He claims,
and proves it, that he can Cure many
cases pronounced by others as incur
able. He either proves It OF else will
not take the case. His advertisement
acQuainting the people with what he
proposes to do, appears in this paper,
and all interested are advised to read
it.

like to get another location to start

put one In here it would cost from

He said that he had received prop.

FRAlL, WEAKLY CHILD
Made Strong by Vinol

So many cases like this are coming
to our attention for the benefit of
fathers and mothers of weak, sickly,
ailing children in this vicinity we pub
lish the following letter:
Mrs. j. Z. Weatherford, Litchfield,
ILL.,, says: I'VE have had an invalid
child for the past nine years and un-
til we began using Vinol, we some
times thought there was little hope
for him. He would have terrible
coughing spells at night, and they
would leave him so exhausted. We
tried everything, but to no avail. AT
last some one suggested that we try
Vinol and we noticed a change in
him from the very first. The cough
ing spells ceased and he gained in
strength right along. We would not
be without it and would advice par
ents who have frail and weakly chill
dren to try Vinol."
This is because the child needed
the strengthening cod liver elements
and the tonic iron that Vinol con-
tains. No oil, delicious taste. Chill
dren love it. We give back your
money if Vinol does not benefit. Geo.
"A. Gorgas. Druggist, Harrisburg, Vinol

COLUMBIA F|REMEN
FIGHT ELECTRIC CO.
Protest Against Transfer Of Rights
and Privileges to New
Corporation y

Columbia, Pa, March Ii. - AT a
regular meeting of the Columbia Fire
mems Relief Association the directors
of that body went on record as op-
posing the transferring Of the rights
and privileges of the now defunct Co
lumbia Electric Light, Heat and Power
Company to their successors, the Edl-
son Electric Company, and the asso-
citation will ask each of the five f1re
companies of Columbia to take similar
action.
When the Columbia Electric Light,
Heat and Power Company began busi-
ness in Columbia over a quarter of a
century ago, they placed an electric
light over the entrance of each fire
house and made no charge for the
same. These lights were allowed to
burn all night and were great aid
to the firemen when called into ser
vice at night. When the Public Utili-
ties Commission of Pennsylvania
sprang into existence they ruled that
corporations could not furnish any
thing for nothing. The Edison Com
pany forthwith cut off the free service
at the fire houses.
