NO SECRET ETABOuT vIN0L
The Complete Formula of this
Great Tonic, Strength Creator
is Printed On Every Label

There is no secret about the reason
why Vinol surpasses all other tonics
and cod liver oil preparations to create
strength for weak, rundown, over
worked, debilitated men and women,
after sickness, for feeble old people
and delicate children. 1t is because ii
Is scientific combination of the
greatest tonics known to medicine
viz, beef and cod liver peptones, iron
and manganese peptonates and glyc-
erophosphates, etc.
That is why Ninol quickens the ap-
petite, aids digestion, supplies iron to
the blood and brings back the strength
of renewed health.
The letters from people who have
benefited by Vinol, which we are con-
tinually publishing in the columns of
this paper, form a chain of evidence
which proves beyond question that
Finol is the greatest strength creator
on the market.
AS the formula is printed on every
label anyone can see there is nothing
harmful in Vinol.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
KREIsLER's PROGRAM
Harrisburg, Oct. IL, 1916.

|
To, the Editor of the Telegraph:
There is no doubt that Kreisler is
one of the greatest-if not the greatest
-Violinist in the world. But it seems
to me that, if someone were disputing
that statement, he might be justified
in giving his program of last night to
an audience composed of cultured
musicians sitting as judges of the con-
test In such an audience bare 10
per cent. are musicians. and able to
understand and appreciate the highly
classical compositions to which Kreis-
Ter devoted nearly the whole evening.
Why should not q musician take into
are many who would be delighted to
hear lighter music? This is not a
plea for ragtime or the many popular
denominations of the day, but there are
hundreds of beautiful and moving
melodies in the middle domain be-
tween classical and ragtime that would
! feach the hearts, and not merely the
ears, of such an audience as that of
Wednesday night.
The matter is precisely the same, it
should deliver a lecture here and use
so many technical terms that few in
his audience would know that he
was talking about. In an audience
there is a sprinkling of all tastes. and,
as people pay money to be pleased,
great musical artists should not con-
slider 1T the objectionable sin to play
something that sounds like tune.
/ Surely Kreisler would be just as great
master of the violin il he should
choose few of the simpler and famil-
lar melodies and give to them all the
rare touches and the soul of interpre-
tatlon of which he alone is capable.
And 1T would be we'll for those who
are managing the many concerts to
be given this winter to know that the
receipts would be swelled If their ar
lists would not be SO ''high-b brow" ana
be willing to make few concessions
10 hearers who have not had time to
become highly technical.

from the Missouri across the noun
tains and located the townsite. The
place was named Kerchival City in
honor of an old steamboat captain
who had been among the first to adj
vocate the route. The "city" under
his name refused to expand beyond a
log cabin or two, occupied by the en-
ployes of the company, but in 1868,
after the river had swept away the
cabins, the attempt to create a town,
this time under the name of Mus
selshell, was renewed under the aus
pices of the Montana Hide and Fur
company of Helena, which sent ten
men to establish a post and build
a warehouse. They were Joined by
Colonel Clendenn Clendennin with
his brother Richard and James Nc
Ginnis, who had opened a woodward
at Grand Island while awaiting dew
elopments respecting the new loca-
ton.
Company of Soldiers -
Established Close BY.
In the summer of this year the
population was increased by addi-
tions from the mountains and from
up and down the river. Soon there
were more than so settlers and a
dozen cabins fronting the river. A
company of soldiers came down from
Camp Cooke and established them
selves just below the town, erecting
a stockade with bastions, which was
chr1stened Camp Reeve. The friend
ly eros Ventres and Crows came in
great numbers to trade and the hopes
of the new founders doomed large.
If SO much had been accomplished in
one summer, what might not reason
ably be expected in succeeding years?
The prosperity of the town, however,
attracted the attention of the Sioux,
and this nation henceforth was the
Nemesis of the settlement.
In the fall of the year the Sioux
made their first attack, capturing the
grazing herds of the townfolk and
killing two of the soldiers. Almost
Immediately the soldiers were with
drawn. Early in 1859 nearly a
hundred Indians laid an ambush near
the town. This time general alarm
was given after a squaw had been
wounded, and, as there were about
so men at the post, the settlers deter
mined to teach the Indians lesson.
They advanced swiftly and trapped
large party in a ravine that opened
into the Musselshell. While the main
body of the whites guarded the paths
that led into the ravine, three or four
of the settlers crossed the Musselshell
and under cover of grove of willows
opened a flank fire with repeating
rifles upon the Sioux who were
crouching in the coulee.
