The reason Vinol is 50 successful in
such cases is because the active
medicinal principles of tod liver oil
contained in Vinol rebuilds wasting
tissues and supplies strength and vigor
to the nerves and muscles while the
tonic iron and wnie assist the red cor
puscles of the blood to absorb oxygen
and distribute it through the system.

This is recent scientific invention,
designed to give the various objects

years after its invention the efforts of
the United States government to dis

MOVIES As YEARS OLD TO-DAY

Philadelphia, Pa. Feb. Sit was OF
February 5. 1870. that the first movinl
pictures were shown to the world IL
Philadelphia. They were not like thu
clever productions of the movie
houses today, but were pitiably crude
But they did move" and the big audi
ence that jammed into the Academy
OF music to witness the unique pic
lures marvelled at the dancing gyra
tions of figure that seemed to be
lifelike on the screen. And SO the

Today the moving picture film

heart are placed before him in real.
istic beantv for nickel or dime.
This great invention had its early
troubles, like other new things, and it
was many years before mans ingenu-
ity trained the camera to register on
its miles of ribbon the reels of seem
ery,tragedy and comedy that add so
greatly to mans play-time joys and
his education. Back in 1870 the flex-
ible ribbon films and instantaneous
exposures were unknown, and it was
necessary to limit the views to those
which could be taken by time expos
ure upon wet plates. These pictures
were taken with rare and great pati.
ence, and were reproduced on very
thin glass plates. The device for hold
ing them consisted OF a skeleton
wheel divided into eighteen parts, in
to which the plates were fastened.
The wheel as it revolved threw upon
the screen, by use of the crude magic
lanters of those days, the various pic
lures in succession, just as our pres
ent movies" throw them in rapid

trio or acetylene light.
1t was Henry r. Heyl who first gave
to the world proof that pictures could
be made to move" After long and
careful preparation of his wheel, he
named his invention the "phasma-
rope" and showed its marvels at the
Academy of Music. He turned the
Wheel by hand, and there appeared on

he orchestra struck up a tune, he
egulated the turning wheel so that
