A PI7RY STATEMENT
4 MERICUS DRUGGISTS GIVE AN
APT ILLUSTRATION.
THEIR VIEWS ON VINOL
ARE WORTH LEARNING
This is the Preparation That is Being
Much Talked About.

A reporter asked Hooks Pharmacy
the same question that hundreds have
asked them in the last few years. Just
tell me precisely, please, why Vinol Is
better than cod liver oil
At Hooks Pharmacy the reported
was genially informed: you have
given ma rather difficult task. can
explain to you in a few minutes. the
advantages of Vinol, but to do it in
a half dozen words would hardly be
possible Perhaps, can Illustrate
it's value, however, in a brief manner.
Suppose you had never seen a hens
egg A man who knew of them should
tell you to eat three every day. do
not say that you would, mind you, but
| am inclined to believe at the start
you would make an heroic effort to get
away with the whole thing, shell and
all. The meat of the egg would be
what you needed, the shell rather su-
perfluous. In fact, as a matter or
not quite the thing for
your stomach.
There you are with cod liver oil. In
it you have a medicine, or rather in
the liver of live cod there is a med
icine known to be valuable for certain
forms of disease, a great strength ere
ator and tonic reconstruction. Doctors
have administered it for years. They
were like the man who had never seen
an egg before. They gave it to their
patients Just as they found it, shell
and all Yes, that is exactly it. The
grease was useless and as bad for the
stomach, almost as would have been
the shell of the egg. The kernel or
the meat of the remedy, the vital
that they were after, were
contained in it. Science has stepped
in and done exactly what the man with
the egg might have done-found a
way to separate the healthful interior
from the worthless husk.
Now we have the active medical
principles of the Gods liver. We have
thrown away the useless encumbrances
that formerly encloaked it, namely, the
fat. We have taken this
extract, placed it in a delicious table
wine added beef peptone. iron and
peptonates and glycer-
phosphates and there you are. Patients
who have needed cod liver oil and
could not take it, have no trouble in
taking Vinol Why, you would enjoy
it yourself, so pleasant is it,
IL l did not tell you it was anything
but a mild table wine. If you needed
it, however, for medicine, you would
soon find it to be something different.
The medicinal properties of the Gods
liver together with the other ingre-
diente above named, create strength
ana GSNldllEe WSdh, run uOWuJ uSDlA-
itated feeble old people, delicate chill
dren and as constitutional remedy
for chronic coughs, colds and bron-
chitis there is nothing like it, and the
same principles give strength to the
weakened digestion and enable the
poor suffers worn out stomach to
digest and obtain nutriment from
every everyday food.
"Yes, | am glad to have you come
any time that you care to learn any
tring more about Vinol. It has already
proved itself to be a winner" advt.

SOUTHERN LEAGUE
OPENS ON THURSDAY

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, April 1.-THE
sixteenth season of the Southern Asso-
citation of baseball clubs will open in
birmingham, Atlanta, Mobile and Little
Rock tomorrow afternoon. The 1917
schedule has 154 games, fourteen more
than last year, and the season will
close September 10, after which
post-season series will be staged be-
tween the penant winner and all-star
team to be picked by committee of
southern sporting writer's.
The opening series are as follows:
Nashville at Birmingham.
Chattanooga at Atlanta.
New Orleans at Mobile.
Memphis at Little Rock.
Managers, officials and observers
generally declare this season should
develop the best pitching stats in
years. The outfields appear to be slight
ly weaker in offensive playing than in
1915. The infield strength is about the
same as last year
Although some believe the Nashville
champions will repeat, others hold to
the view that Manager Roy Elams
crew has been weakened by trades.
The Birmingham club will have one
change in the infeld, two in the out
field, one in the catching staff, and one
in the pitching staff.

Tom Sharkey and Tim McGrath

Tim decided one day that he and
Tom could gather up some change
by giving a fight at Vallejo, Cal. Tom
was the Angel and supplied the
cash, while Tins job was to boost
the fight along.
The day of the show Tim came to
town and herded up quite a bunch
of the crowd. Everyone of course
paid his way up, hotel bills and so
on. It made Tim feel pretty mellow
and when the time for the fight came
he was lit up fine, and friends with
everyone.

COMMANDERS TO
co IN TRENCHES

WASHINGTON, Sept 20.-Regular
and national guard general officers
commanding divisional training camps
are to DO sent to Europe on an obser-
walton tour Of the battle fronts, re-
turning to carry on their training du-
ties at the close Of the tour. Formal
announcement OF this plan by the war
department Is expected.
Under the voluntary censorship
specific movements Of general officers
may not be published without authori.
cation Of the military authorities. For
this reason the list of divisional COM
manders already selected to make the
tour will be available only when the
departments announcement is made.
II is assumed, however, that il posi-
BILE every division commander will be
given an opportunity In time to famil-
iarize himself somewhat with actual
war conditions abroad.
The early stages OF the mobiliza.
ton and training OF the national guard
and national army divisions will be left
to the brigade and regimental COM
manders leaving the officers of the d.
visional staff to handle the larger
questions.
The first weeks of training camp
work will be devoted largely to get
ting the men equipped and classified
to the various arms OF the service and
that period will be devoted wherever
possible to the observation tour
abroad for general officers.

How To Judge A Woman
by Her Hair

There is real common sense In just
noticing whether the hair is we'll kept
to Judge of woman's neatness, or good
taste. If you are one of the few who
try to make the most of your hair,
remember that it is not advisable to
wash the hair with any cleanser made
for all purposes, but always use some
good preparation made expressly for
shampooing. You can enjoy the very
best by getting some canthrox from
your druggist, dissolve a teaspoonful
in a cup of hot water. This makes a
full cup of shampoo liquid, enough SO
it is easy to apply it to all the hair
instead of just the top of the head.
Dandruff, excess Oil, and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear Your
hair will be so fluffy that it will look
much heavier than it is. It's lustre and
softness will also delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.-Adv.

Folly to let a Man Drink,
Says Druggist Brown, of Cleveland,
Who Gives a Home Remedy
A New Treatment Given Without the
Consent or knowledge of the Drunken.

A New Treatment Given Without the
Consent or knowledge of the Orinker.
Cleveland, Ohio.-A woman who let's
a man drink is foolish, says Druggist
Brown, for no man who drinks ever a
little bit is safe. A woman can break
the drink habit in few weeks for half
what a man spends on liquor in the
same time, and the drinker need never
know she did it. For the sake and
safety of both stop the drink habit in
its beginning. Let the first whiff of
liquor on his breath be your danger
signal but even If he is rum-soaked
through and through do not despair;
he can be saved and it is your duty to
save him. Druggist Brown knows the
awful curse of strong drink because he
himself has been a victim. A loving
sister rescued him from the brink of a
drunkard's grave and kept her secret
ten years, then she told him how she
did 1t. She saved him from the demon
drink, rescued him from his own de-
PRAYED self by means of secret rem
edy, the formula Of an old German
chemist. To save other families from
the curse of drink and to help other
victims out of the murk and mire he
now makes the formula public. Any
druggist can help you if you long to
save a loved one. Just ask your drug
gist for prepared tescum powders and
drop a powder twice a day In tea, cof-
fee, milk or any other drink Liquor
soon ceases to taste the same, the crav-
ing for it vanishes and, 10, one more
drunkard is saved without knowing
