HOW TO CURE A

by a Jackson Man Who
Knows from Experience.
His Word Is Good.

jackson, Miss.--"I am a carpenter,
and the grippe left me not only with Q
chronic cough, but / was rundown,
worn out and weak. / took all kinds Of
cough syrups but they did me no good.
i finally got so weak / was not able to
do day 8 work, and coughed so much I
was alarmed about my condition. One
evening read about Vinol and decided
to try It. Before had taken a quarter
of bottle felt better, and after taking
two bottles my cough is entirely cured,
all the bad symptoms have disappeared
and have gained new vim and energy. Z"
JOHN L. DENNIS, I'll Lynch Street,
jackson, Miss.
The reason Vinol is so successful In
such cases is because the active medic
inal principles Of cod liver oil contained
In Vinol rebuilds wasting tissues and

It through the system, thus restoring

bent upon a decisive victory against

sending troops to the western front,
but, assisted by their Austrian allies,
are making every effort to capture the
Russian Poland capital, Warsaw. Ber-
lin claims further advances by the
great Austro-Ge armies in Ga.
licia, while Field Marshal Won Mack
ensen is pushing steadily ahead be-
tween the Vistula and Bug rivers. Ar
tillery activity continues unabated in
the Arras region of France, but as yet
there are no signs of an infantry
offensive on that front, although it Is
scarcely possible that so many thou
sands of shells are being fired without
some such objective. In the 4rgonne
region the Germans on June 80 gained
some ground, though at the expense
of heavy losses.
A further report regarding the Dar-
danelles operations claim that the CO.
lonial troops have not been checked in
their efforts to advance, but that they
have been used merely to keep the
Turks on this front too busy to send
reserves to that portion of the line
where the Anglo French troops made
an advance of 1000 yards.
The London morning newspapers
generally print editorials on the sink
ing of the steamship Armenian by a

latest of German submarine exploits.
The editorials, however. evidently
were written before the status of the
Leyland liner had been settled.
