AGED GRANDMOTHER
SO WEAK SHE COULD HARDLY
STAND-MADE STRONG BY
VINOL.

Right here in Americas we have
seen such excellent results from Vinol
that it is pleasure to know it is do
ing SO much good for old people in
other parts of the country.
Woodbridge, N. J.-"My grandma
was recovering from the grippe, and
was SO weak she could hardly stand,
ard as she keeps house for my father
and myself, she could not get aroundd
at all. She had taken cod liver oil and
many other medicines, but nothing
seemed to do her any good. At last
we heard of Vinol and tried it, and
Grandma commenced to geet better
right away, and got strong very sooD,
SC she gets around as we'll as ever.
We all praise Vinol for it is a SPLEEN
did medicine" Myrtle H. Bum.
The reason Vinol is so successful
in restoring strength to the aged is
because Of the rare combination Of
tonic iron, the curative medicinal
extractiyes of fresh Gods liyers, beef
peptone and mild native wine. It
supplies iron to the blood, quickens
the appetite, aids digestion, pro-
notes proper assimilation of food,
and enriches the blood, and brings
back the strength of renewed health.

Give thy thoughts no tongue,
nor any unproportioned thought his
act,
Be thou familiar, but by no means
vulgar.
The friends thou hast, and their adop-
ton tried,
Grapple them to thy soul with hoops
of steel;
But do not dull thy palm with enter
tainment
OF each new-hatch'd, unfledg'd COM
rade. Beware
OF entrance to a quarrel, but, being
in,
Bear it, that the opposer may beware
of thee.
y Give every man thine ear, but few
thy voice:
Take each mans censure, but reserve
thy judgment.
Costly thy habit as thy purse can
buy,
But not expressed in fancy; rich, not
gaudy;
For apparel oft proclaims the man;
And they in France, of best rank and
station,
Are most select and generous, chief
in that,
Neither borrower nor a lender be:
For loan oft loses both itself and
friend.
And borrowing dulls the edge of hus-
bandry.
This above ALTO thine own self be
true;
And it must follow, as the night the
day,
Thou can'st not then be false to any
Farewell; my blessing season this in
thee.

Spartacus is a magnificent produc-
ton taken in Italy in the neighbor-
God of ancient Rome and in the
mountains, whether Spartacus led the
revolving slaves and gladiators.
In this production is seen the Cir
Gus Maximus, where the Roman COM
bats we're held before the building Of
tie Coliseum. During the action, a
fight occurs between the gladiators
in the mountains and the Roman le-
gionaries.
Another thrilling scene is in the
arena, where gladitorial combats
take place and the lions are turned
loose on men and women, who are
left unprotected and at the mercy of
the hungry beasts.
There is a beautiful love theme that
runs through the play. The love OF
Spartacus for the daughter of his cap
tor Crassus. The scenes in Italy are
onderful and carry one back to the
times of Romal dominance of the

London, Sept. 10 (By mail)-The
mothers record in this war is held by
Mrs. Mary Fury, of Loughrea, county
Galway, Ireland.
She has given ten sons to the British
army. Five are dead in France. One
lies in a hospital recovering from
wounds. One is a prisoner in Germany.
One remains fighting and another is
nursing a right arm shattered by bull
let.
This is not all of Mrs. Fury's fight
ing family She has a daughter, Mrs.
Mary COsey, Romford, England. Mrs.
Cosey's husband is one of RumfOrd's
1000 fighting men at the front. Sew.
eral weeks ago, Mrs. Cosey supported
her large family of small children with
the aid of two brotherin-laws. Now
they have gone to war and she is strug-
Cling on alone.
What Mrs. Mary Fury and Mrs. Mary
Cosey have suffered in England s great
est crisis is the story of hundreds of the
working classes in the British Isles. A
similar story can be told in a smaller

ply two rows of $50 small brick houses
and shops built closely together. The
war office has distributed cards of
honor for every family that sends a
man to the army. There are 1875 cards
of honor in the windows of these lit
tie shops and houses. Children play
with cooked hats and wooden guns in
the narrow street. About half of them
will never see their fathers again. They
will go into the factories their fathers
left as soon as their arms are strong
enough.
The war has brought all British
classes together-in the trenches. 1t
has brought all classes at home down
to the same plane-during the war. But
what is to become of the Mrs. Furys
and Mrs. Coseys after the war, is a
question that is hard to answer.
