HOW TO GIT STRONG . ::
a Simple Remedy.

Whatever the cause, we want to say
to every person who needs strength,
you need Vinol cur delicious cod
liver and iron tonic without oil. as
it is the most efficient strength crea-
tor we have in our store. Here is
proof from Dorchester, Mass
II don know what we would do
without Ninol in our family. | was
weak, nervous and rundown as the
result Of an operation, and Vinol re-
stored my strength. Then Grandmoth-
er had nervous breakdown, and Vim
oil built her up and restored her health
and strength after everything else had
failed. We have used Vinol for IS
years in our family, and would not
be without it in the house" Myrtle
l.. Healy, Dorchester, Mass.
We believe in Vinol because we
know it is a great strength creator
due to the extractive medicinal ele-
ments of fresh cod livers, without oil
combined with peptonate OF iron and
beef peptone, all dissolved in pure
medicinal wine, so we always re-
turn the purchase money il Vinol
fails to benefit those who buy 1t. VIM.

Dinner Of All Vermont Products

The University of Vermont au-
thorities gave the newspaper men OF
the state most unique dinner at
Burlington on Friday evening.
Everything, including the paper on
which the menus we're printed, was
produced in Vermont. The dinner,
let it be said, was one that would
suit the taste of an epicurean. Not
only were the viands the choicest, but
they were prepared in the most ap
proved manner by young women TAX
ing the course of home economics at
the university.
Every county in the state contrib
uted to make this Vermont dinner
possible, the products furnished be-
ing as follows: Addison, flour, ap-
pies, honey; Bennington ginger ale;
Caledonia, candy; Chittenden. milk,
cream. cream cheese. flour, malt pro-
ducts, vegetables, candy; Essex,
potatoes; Franklin, maple syrup;
Grand Isle, fish; Lamoille, butternuts,
maple syrup; Orange, maple sugar.
Orleans, cranberries; Rutland, cheese
Washington, butter, crackers; Wind
ham, paper for menu cards and leaf
let; Windsor apples asparagus, tur
keys. Any one county could have fun
nished practically everything listed.
Governor Gates expressed the
opinion of all of the hundred or
more at the tables when he said that
some OF the food was the best he
had ever tasted" He also suggested
that Vermonters could do much in
the interests of state products if they
would request wherever they were
that they be served Vermont-grown
products. For instance, the boys sell
ing fruit on the trains through New
England would soon handle Vermont
apples if loyal Vermonters would take
the pains to call for Vermont apples
in making their purchases while
travelling The executive thought that
it was entirely wrong that apples
grown on the Pacific coast should be
sold on New England. in fact on Yer
mont, railroad trains, when the Yer
mont fruit was superior.
The dinner was forceful illus
tration OF the wide variety of Yer
mont's resources in foodstuffs. If
Vermonters would see to it that
home grown or home prepared goods
were consumed, much impetus would
be given to industries of various kinds
in the Green Mountain state. The au.
thorities of the State university de-
serve great credit for setting before
the people this striking object lesson.

Mir. Hearst on MIR. Wilson

In his gruelling fight for second
term President Wilson is to encounter
the active opposition of Mr.. Hearst.
So much is evident from the signs al
ready appearing in the political sky
The line of attack may be best judged
by a few samples of the shrapnel
which the editor is firing upon the
statesman's position:
To sum UP the evidence of the only
witness we have cited, who is Wood
row Wilsin himself, we find that
President Wilson was in favor of a
single presidential term. Now he is
against 1t. aat
President Wilson was in favor OF
the Garrison continental army plan.
Now he is against II.
President Wilson was opposed to in
creasing the navy. Now he demands
that the navy be made the largest in
the world.
President Wilson was opposed to
young men spending time in military
training. Now he demands that 400,-
600 be trained.
President Wilson was opposed to a
tariff commission. Now he demands a
tariff commission.
President Wilson favored interven-
ton in Mexico, and did send the army
to intervene, Now he declares that
while he is president nobody shall in
terfere' in Mexico
President Wilson demanded that all
Mexican claimants get together in a
conference to establish de facto gov
eminent, and threatened non-recogni-
ton of any who refused. President
Wilson then recognized as the Next
can ruler the only claimant who did
not, and would not join in the confer
ence
President Wilson was in favor Of
free Panama canal tolls. After his
election he compelled the democratic
majority to repeal the free tolls law.
President Wilson wanted to knock
Bryan into a cooked hat, and when
elected made him his chief official ad-
wiser.
President Wilson was outspoken
against labor unions. Since his cleo
ton he has sedulously courted labor
union leaders.
President Wilson was opposed to
the initiative and referendum Then
he declared he favored it. Since that
he has forgotten it.
President Wilson was out and out in
favor OF free trade on theoretical
grounds Now he says he doesn't
care anything about free trade theor-
les.
President Wilson is for women's
suffrage in New Jersey and against
womens suffrage in Washington.
President Wilson was opposed to
preparedness as late as last year.
Now he is preaching preparedness fer

business" what happens in Mexico
We leave to President Wilson's
apologists the task Of reconciling sc
many contradictions. gs
To us it seems that President VII
son has no fixed principles or conyic
lions upon any subject under the sun
and that he is consistent only in advo
eating anything that promises to pro
mote his reelection and his personal
ambitions.

had his Dana, now Wilson has his

the poor or among the rich.
In the main OF course an advance
in wages is applied to real needs, to
clothing, more substantial food, etc.
The ambitious, common-sense work
ing man should not be satisfied, how
ever, unless he has done something
with 1t TO give him a more assured
position in life. A substantial part of
every wage raise ought to go the pay
ment OF debts and if possible to a
bank deposit. The sun shine today,

A vital point upon which all schools

There is more Catarrh IN this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurabe. For "a
great many years doctors pronounced II a
local disease and prescribed local reme-
dies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced 1t incur
able. Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore re-
qures constitutional treatment. Halls

frmation at the time this is written,
but it will be either captured or de-
stroyed in the near future. if not al

cannot long evade the fate of the

view it is only question of how
much enemy property can be de-

takes. From the allied point Of view
it is case of hunt the raider down

New York, July 13.-The number of
new cases, in spite of the continued
torrid weather conditions, shows an en-

PROTEST MADE TO TURKEY
United States Objects to Seizure OF
Archives Sealed by American Consul

HrCniNeS sealed Dy American NonSul
Washington, July 13.-Vigorous pro-
test has been made by the United
States to the Turkish government
against the action Of the governor
general Of Syria in breaking into the
French and British consulates at
Beirut and carrying off their archives
after the American consulgeneral
there had placed the seal of the Unit
ed States on their doors. 1t became
known at Washington yesterday that
many prominent Syrians recently exc
cuted by the Turks were condemned
because their names appeared in pap
ers taken from the violated consulates.
According to official information the
mere presence OF the names in the con.
sulate records served as death war
rant without further proof of antagon-
ism to the Turkish government.
The American consulgeneral, w.
Stanley Hollis, already had strained
his relations with the local authorities
at Beirut by his activities in behalf
Of the citizens OF allied countries left
in his care upon the withdrawal of
the British and French consuls there
When the Turkish governor demanded
access TO the consulate papers, Mr.
Hollis not only refused 1t, but ap
pealed TO the American embassy at
Constantinople, which fled forma
romonstrance with the porte Ever
this was unavaiing. The papers were
taken and still are held.
Turkey early in the war renomcet

restraints imposed by Joint interna
tional treaties and in this case is al
legged to have violated n wel-estab

must be maintained whether or no

been obtained from any of the nu
merous protests lodged at Constan

PURSUERS WERE CLOSE BEHIND

Berlin, July II, (via London 1.-The
Austro-German retirement from the
Czartorysk Salient, just south of the
Pinsk swamps, having been complete,
the opposing armies have come to grips
all along the line of the Stokhod River,
where Won Linsingen has elected to
stand and cover the approach to Kovel.
Heavy fighting is already in progress
along the Stokhod, but apparently it is
merely an earnest of what later may
be expected in the persistent and des-
perate campaign of the Russian com
mander, General Brussiloff, to reach
this important railway junction regard
less of losses.
The retirement, according to advices
from Austrian headquarters, was for
strategic purposes, and the achieve
ment is considered one of high degree.
The Russians had worked well around
the fanks of the old position, and If
material and units were to be saved,
the retirement over an almost roadless
country had to be effected at a good
pace. AS it was, the Austro-German
forces barely reached the positions be-
hind the Stokhod before the Russians
were hammering at the crossing.
Comparative quiet prevails along the
rest of the Eastern front. The Russian
request for dead at Baranovichi was
granted and heavy fighting has not yet
been resumed.
