MORE STRENGTH FOR
FEEBLE OLD PEOPLE

Ii all the old people in Brunswick
realized what Vinol will do for them,
we woud not be abe to get enough OF
1t to supply the demand. We quote
from recent letter received from
Mrs. A. H. Carson, OF kinston, MY.
She says II am 50 years OF
age, and had been ailing for a long
time with Indigestion. got rundown
was weak, dizzy and could not sleep
at night consulted two doctors who
said | had hardening of the arteries
and at my age could not expect to be
strong again. My daughter would give
no peace until tried Vinol, as il had
done SO much for her | have taken
live bottles and my health and strength
have come back. so am able to do all
the housework for my family of four,
and | am recommendingVmol to all my
friends"
The reason Ninol is SO beneficial TO
old people is because it contains the
very elements needed to replace de-
climing strength with renewed vigor,
viz: the medicinal elements of fresh
cod livers without oil, peptonate of
iren, beef pentone. and mild tonic
wine, Roberts Pharmacy.

The Poor Renighted Redskin.

A great many sentimental drops OF
tears have been shed in behalf of the
American Indian, who is actually pic
tured as standing alone on a western
hill, gazing into the sunset where
fhostly herds of buffalo recall the
good old days Of the terrestrial hunt
ing grounds that were hardly less hap
by than those to which the devout
redskin believed the Great Spirit
would conduct him in due time. The
Indian is regarded by sentimental
fasteners as the fast-disappearing
representative of a vanishing race, de-
spoiled of his land and wasting away
under the malign evils of the white
mans cruel civilization. In few
more years, in the belief of the senti-
mentalists, the last redskin will skulk
into the last forest and make his eter-
nal exit from the stage of American
life, with only the chronological muse
ums to show him as he was and the
pages Of j. Fenimore Cooper to show
him Us he never was.
II must come as matter Of sur
prise TO these good people, therefore,
when the commissioner of Indian af-
fairs, in an official report, shows that
there are now 100000 Indians in the
United States-4O, 900 more than there
were twenty years ago. There are
10000 children in the various Indian
schools of the country, being taught
to earn their own living. There are
1000 Indians who are citizens of the
United States and from 1000 to 1900
acquire citizenship every year The
government spends S3,0O0,0O0 a year,
or 100 per capita, educating the 3d.
900 boys and girls who are learning
how to become self-sustaining.

One Perfect Man.

There died recently in Missouri
town Il man who, il common report
and his own assertion may be relied
on, was about as near perfection as
man born OF wot.an can attain in this
world. This man made the proud
boast that he had never told lie
or spoken cross word to his wife
He capped the assertion by accredit
ing his wife with qualities equal 10
his own.
On first thought one hardly knows
whore to place this amazing charae
ter. He lived in Missouri and when
one remembers the prediction OF
that people for being shown. coupled
with the fact that his neighbors Ger.
tilted to the truth of his boast. ii is
apparent that he made out strong
case before departing this life at the
age of 5S.
The news dispatches are silent,
however, concerning some things an
outsider would like to know. He must
have been awfully lonesome Every
man in town going to work Cheered
and refreshed by the daily morning
spat with his wife must have Stunned
him as d breathing reproach, Certain
ly. in view of the fact that he could
not tell lie, nobody would dare in.
vito him To sociable little game vi
draw or think of embarking with him
ON souse OF even the most harmless
sort. Then again, how many thou
sand times he insult have been held up
as shining light TO erring every
day husbands, That in itself would
seem TO be enough to turn every man
in the town against him, He must
have picked his steps in fear and
trembling with the eyes of the whole
community watching for the first
sign of recession from Crane. The
married men mnst have attended his
funeral with well.dissembled grief
and sigh of relief.
The question that pre-emincntly
calls for an answer, however, it: For
how much OF the mans perfection was
he really entitled TO credit and how
much was vicarious. When one con,
siders that his wife never spoke .
cross word to him and never told him
a fib ii is apparent that there is
some room for speculation-for doubt
even. One wonders whether he would
