MOTHERS Of
DELICATE CHILDREN
Should Read the Following
Letter Mrs. SIack's Story
About Her Child'S Recovery
Is Entirely Reliable.

Palmyra, Pa.-"Three years ago my
little girl had black measles which left
her with a chronic cough and so awfully
thin you could count all her ribs, and she
coughed so much she had no appetite.
Nothing we gave her seemed to
help her at all until one day Mrs. Neibert
told me how much good Vinol had done
her little girl, so | decided to try it for
my little one, and it has done her so much
good she is hungry all the time, her
cough is gone, she is stouter and more
healthy in color and this is the first win
ter she has been able to play out in the
snow, coasting and snow-balling without
any i'll effects. Mrs. ALFRED SLACK.
Palmyra, Pa.
We know Vinol will build up your
little ones and make them healthy,
strong and robust, therefore we pask
parents of every frail and sickly child
in this vicinity to try a bottle of Vinol,
our delicious cod liver and iron tonic
without oil.
If we can induce you to try q bottle
of Vinol as a body-builder and streng+
creator for your child, and you :
find it is all we claim, we W
your money on demand.

chiefs. His pain was so intense
that he told me many times ne

than endure the suffering he had
to go through with. The Lord

salvation is free and abundant
and that it was for him. One
morning, just after daylight. ne

him. When / went over to his

This saying was wonderfully

The Falling Of the Leaves
BY Col. w. L. CLAYTON


my command in the Confederate
army on the banks of the Oconee
river in South Georgia. surround
ed by a splendid band of noble
young soldiers. with scarce a sill
yer hair or gray beard in the
entire command. Soon thereafter
we all marched to our homes in
the different states of the south
land and took up our duties as
civilians. For many years no
one heard anything of the old
soldiers" but after a few years
the word was passed round about
the soldiers of the Lost Cause.
Through all these years have
been an interested observer of
these soldiers, young middle aged
and old, as they've lived and as
they've died.
At first, and for many years,
they were in the majority in ev-
cry meeting. In every enterprise
they pushed toward the front. as
they did in battles fray. They
cleared the forests and planted
and reaped the grain and bent
over the feecy staple and stamp
ed as untrue that the white man
could not compete with the black
in the production of cotton.
They settled the west and the
southwest and made them bios
som as the rose and produce the
riches of Opher.
But as they went and toiled
and labored, | looked up one
autumn as the early October
frosts began to color the forests,
and ever and anon as the winds
gently passed by a leaf here and
there. somewhat ripper than its
fellows, turned loose from the
parent twig, and with a swift.
circling movement, fell to the
ground. A little later | again
passed through the overlapping
forests and beheld more of the
leaves, brown and green and
carnation and scar, falling to the
ground and crumbling into dust
with their fellows. And again
and again I've looked as the
years have passed and gone, un
til there are now only a leaf here
and there still clinging to the
limbs. and they apparently ready
to fall at the least rustic of the
breeze.
But some beautiful spring day,
after the sap has pushed off the
last old dead leaf, there will be a
renewing of the leaves upon the
trees and the forest will again
burst forth in its pristine beauty
and glory.
And so for these so years I've
walked by the wayside and stood
by my old comrades in the path
way of life today, and tomorrow
closed their eyes and bid them
farewell for all time. I've seen
the young soldier and the middle
aged in their youth and prime.
and the old soldier, bowed with
age and sorrow and affection

Mutual Culture Club

With the coming of wintry
days it seems an additional en-
thusiasm is given to the club and
right merrily did the members
and invited guests assemble at
the home of Mrs. Fred Hulsey
on West Highlands on the after
noon of Jan. Is.
The attractive and picturesque
little home never appeared to
better advantage. The brisk
walk to reach it on time (the
streets being almost impossible
for cars) gave a Jingle to the
blood that put everyone in high
spirits.
Mrs. Spight called for order OF
the day when the hour arrived,
and after calling of roll and
reading of minutes, she put be-
fore the club a contest offered to
clubs by the Pictorial Review.
The club decided to enter the
contest, and the plan, briefly
stated, is an offer of two hundred
