HIGH SCHOOL GIRL
Rundown, Weak and Nervous
Made Strong by Vinol.

For the benefit of Harrisburg school
girls who overwork and get into highly
nervous, weak and rundown condition,
we publish this letter from Doris
Coplier, of Fort Worth. Texas: "I go
to the high school and take music les
sons, and became rundown, weak and
very nervous, so I could not do any
thing. ! would shake all over and
could have screamed at times, and was
really unfit to keep on with my studies.
Mother purchased a bottle of Vinol for
me and within a week I was better,
and in two weeks l had gained five
pounds and felt fine"
1t is the curative, STRENGTHENING
elements of the true cod liver extract,
aided by the blood-making, revitalizing
effect of peptonate of iron and beef
peptone, contained in VinoI, which
made it so successful in building up
health and strength and overcoming
the nervous condition of Miss Coplier,
and we ask every school girl in Harris
burg who is in like condition to try
Vinol. on our guarantee to return their
money if it fails to benefit.

BREWERS TRIALS
TO START MAY |
Smaller Companies Said to Be
Ready to Open Books to
Federal Officers

Pittsburgh. March 81. - The next
move in the prosecution of seventy-two
brewing companies which are accused
of violating the Federal corrupt prac-
tees act)will be the jury trials, which
start on Monday, May 1.
Judge w. II. S. Thomson's refusal
at Erie Saturday to meet lawyers for
indicted brewing companies to con-
slider smaller fines in return for whole
sale pleas of guilty pleased govern
ment officials, who believe that the
breaking up of organized activities in
politics by the breweries is now only
question of time.
Reports continue to come to District
Attorney Humes of dissensions among
the brewery associations and it is said
that several of the smaller companies
have offered to throw open their books
and help the government prosecute
the brewery associations and their Off
cials. United States Attorney Humes
is inclined to take all possible advan-
tage of the situation for the govern
ment.
For new prosecutions against lead
ers In the so-called Estate liquor ring
the government believes it has laid a
good base. Officials of the State and
national associations have refused to
testify before the Federal grand jury
them in criminal proceedings. This
admission the government considers
the most valuable result of the in
VeStigation.
