Skim Cream on Bottles.

A novel method of skimming all
the cream from milk contained in q
bottle or like vessel is to use a large
round disk Of rubber which takes q
slightly concave shape, it being hung
upon three light aluminium rods or
wires. Slipping the disk in edgewise
and below the surface, it then takes
the fiat position and can be drawn out
with all the cream.

MORE STEAMERS
 0N INLET RUN
Pacific Coast Steamship Line Will Ex. tend Operations To Southwest
 ern Alaska.

SEATTLE, May Tt is reported here today that the Pacific Coast Steamship company, now operating steamers in Southeastern Alaska and also from this port to San Francisco, will extend their service to South western Alaska starting about the middle of next month. The investiga- tion made by the officials of the company has. led them to expect a constant travel this year into the Cook Inlet country and also heavy freight shipments.
 It is also expected that number of tramp freighters will cut into the business as soon as the railroad ship ments are gathered and the commis- sion is ready to handle any amount of freight at Anchorage.
 The Alaska Steamship line with it's big ore freighters going north for ore will, however, be in position to hold down the tramp boats while the pas senger boats of the Admiral Line and Alaska Steamship company line are expected to secure the bulk of all pas senger business.

This Distressing Situation.

C~ollinsville, m.-"I suffered from a
nervous breakdown and terrible head
aches, and was tired all over, totally
worn out and too discouraged to enjoy
life, but as | had four in family and
sometimes eight or nine boarders, kept
on working despite my suffering.
8" saw Vinol advertised and decided
TO try it, and within two weeks I
noticed a decided improvement in my
condition and now l am a well woman"
Mrs. ANA BECKER, COllinsviile, Iii.
There are hundreds of nervous, run
down, observation-disclosures in this vicinity
who are hardly able to drag around and
who we are sure would be wonderfully
benefited by Vinol as Mrs. Becker was.
The reason Vinol is so successful in
building up health and strength in such
cases is because it combines the medici~
nal tissue building and curative elements
of Gods livers together with the blood
making, strengthening properties of
tonic iron. We ask every weak, ner-
vous, rundown mar or woman in this
vicinity to try a bottle of Vinol on
guarantee to return their money if it
fails to benefit.
